[Improvement] Downloading Firmware about aio-switch-updater HOT 19 CLOSED

2022 here, would love mega downloading for firmware files..

from aio-switch-updater.

Done, thanks to @aedalzotto

Yeah of course, but the problem is that downloading from mega is a lot less straight forward, you have to jump through a few hoops. I've seen it done in C++ so maybe I could. The other issue is that mega urls look a lot more suspicious than the archive.org links. I'll keep this open and think about it.
Do keep in mind that the mega download on the switch would likely be quite a bit slower than the mega download on desktop

from aio-switch-updater.

yes of course, ive found using cloudflare or google DNS helps the speed somewhat, so it knows which server location to serve you.

How about put the firmware file to github?

This app can download firmware file from mega link. You may take a look
https://github.com/devgru/FreshHay

That would be great improvement!

2022 here, Do not use mega as it is restrictive. Use https://anonfiles.com instead.

I would only consider what darthsternie uses

That would defeat the purpose of using mega, as anonfiles is 200x slower or more. Often downloading at a couple hundred KB/s

Also what do you mean restrictive?

I am trying to develop a solution for using Mega.
Hopefully, soon there will be a PR.

If you download from a pc and use a download manager like IDM or the firefox extension "Turbo Download Manager" (multithreaded downloads) anonfiles has normal speed.

You have an amount of traffic before it shuts off.

yeah, 8GB every 6 hours

plenty reasonable for a 500MB firmware update

I've made an initial version of the MegaDL lib supporting custom progress callback using cpr and cryptopp.
I will try to integrate it into aio-switch-updater when I have some time.

That looks pretty sweet! I don't know if there is a crypto++ package for devkitpro though, so you might face difficulties on that front

I guess we could build from source, since it only depends on mbedtls.
Also, cpr only depends on libcurl.

All good then :)
