Download Files Directly to the Yen Servers

Instead of downloading the file to your local machine and transferring it to the Yens, you can streamline the process by downloading it directly to the Yens server using the wget command.

General Process

  • Navigate to the Desired Directory: Use the cd command to move to the directory where you want to save the downloaded files.

  • Use wget to Download the Files: Download a single file or multiple files to the desired directory.

  • Verify the Download by Listing the Files: Use the ls command.

Example 1: Downloading a Single File

Suppose you want to download the YOLOv5 small model weights (yolov5s.pt) from the official Ultralytics YOLOv5 repository. Here's how to do it:

  • Navigate to the desired directory:

    Terminal Command
    cd /path/to/your/directory

  • Use the wget command with the file URL:

    Terminal Command
    wget https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov5/releases/download/v7.0/yolov5s.pt

  • If successful, you’ll see the output similar to this:

    Terminal Output

  • Verify the download by listing the files:

    Terminal Command
    ls
    yolov5s.pt should be in your directory.

Example 2: Downloading Multiple Files

Now suppose you need to download multiple YOLOv5 model weights (e.g., yolov5s.pt, yolov5m.pt, and yolov5l.pt). Here's how you can do it efficiently:

  • Navigate to the desired directory:

    Terminal Command
    cd /path/to/your/directory

  • Create a file to store the list of URLs:

    Terminal Command
    touch file_list.txt

  • Add the URLs to the file_list.txt file:

    Terminal Command
    echo "https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov5/releases/download/v7.0/yolov5s.pt" >> file_list.txt
echo "https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov5/releases/download/v7.0/yolov5m.pt" >> file_list.txt
echo "https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov5/releases/download/v7.0/yolov5l.pt" >> file_list.txt

  • Verify the contents of file_list.txt:

    Terminal Command
    cat file_list.txt
    The output should look like this:
    Terminal Output
    https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov5/releases/download/v7.0/yolov5s.pt
https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov5/releases/download/v7.0/yolov5m.pt
https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov5/releases/download/v7.0/yolov5l.pt

  • Use the wget command with the -i option to download all tthe files listed in the file_list.txt:

    Terminal Command
    wget -i file_list.txt

  • If successful, you’ll see the download progress for each file, similar to this:
