# or with concurrency
$ dl -u https://www.url.com/foo.ext -c 10
# with debug mode enabled (if you are curious!)
$ dl -u https://www.url.com/foo.ext -c 10 -d
# with custom output file name
$ dl -u https://www.url.com/foo.ext -c 10 -d -n bar.ext

Configurations

Setup destination directory

# set current directory path as destination directory
$ dl config -p .
# or set other directory
$ dl config -p $HOME/Downloads

Note: If you have destination directory set then all files automatically will be saved there. If you want to override on the fly then use -p . flag to download in the current directory. By default the destination directory value is empty that means the file will be downloaded in the current directory.

Setup sub-directory/extensions

Note: If destination directory is not set then the sub-directory/extensions will NOT WORK

# set sub-directory based on extensions
# this will create a "binary" diectory inside root directory. 
# all downloads with .exe, .dmg extensions will be stored there
$ dl config -s "binary:.exe,.dmg"

Setup concurrency

# default concurrency is 5, you can set default value by passing -c flag in config
$ dl config -c 10

Default configurations

config.json 
{
	"directory":"",
	"concurrency":5,
	"sub_dir_map":{
		"audio":[
