NAME

       jigdo-lite - Download jigdo files using wget

SYNOPSIS

       jigdo-lite [ URL ]

DESCRIPTION

       See jigdo-file(1) for an introduction to Jigsaw Download.

       Given  the  URL	of  a  `.jigdo' file, jigdo-lite downloads the large file (e.g. a CD image) that has been made available through that URL.
       wget(1) is used to download the necessary pieces of administrative data (contained in the `.jigdo' file	and  a	corresponding  `.template'
       file) as well as the many pieces that the large file is made from. The jigdo-file(1) utility is used to reconstruct the large file from the
       pieces.

       `.jigdo' files that contain references to Debian mirrors are treated specially: When such a file is recognized, you are asked to select one
       mirror out of a list of all Debian mirrors.

       If  URL	is not given on the command line, the script prompts for a location to download the `.jigdo' file from. The following command line
       options are recognized:

       -h --help
	      Output short summary of command syntax.

       -v --version
	      Output version number.

       --scan FILES
	      Do not ask for "Files to scan", use this path.

       --noask
	      Do not ask any questions, instead behave as if the user had pressed Return at all prompts. This can be useful  when  running  jigdo-
	      lite from cron jobs or in other non-interactive environments.

NAME

       jigdo-mirror - Maintain a mirror of images offered with jigdo

SYNOPSIS

       jigdo-mirror [ config-file ]

DESCRIPTION

       See jigdo-file(1) for an introduction to Jigsaw Download.

       jigdo-mirror  is a script intended for people who want to offer direct HTTP or FTP downloads of files for which only the jigdo and template
       files are available.

       As the first step of using jigdo-mirror, you need to set up normal HTTP/FTP/rsync mirroring both of the `.jigdo'/`.template' files  and	of
       the  parts  that  are  needed  for the reconstruction of the images. For example, in the case that you want to mirror Debian CD images with
       jigdo-mirror, you need a mirror of the `.jigdo'/`.template' files and a Debian mirror on the local machine.

       At regular intervals (preferably immediately after the normal mirroring has finished), schedule a  run  of  jigdo-mirror.  It  will  search
       through a given directory for any `.jigdo' files and attempt to create all images offered by each file.

       The  script  requires  you  to  set a number of variables - please refer to the start of /usr/bin/jigdo-mirror for a description of each of
       them. Since /usr/bin/jigdo-mirror will be overwritten whenever you upgrade jigdo-mirror, it is highly recommended not to  change  the  set-
       tings  directly	in  this script. Instead, personal settings should be saved in a file called .jigdo-mirror in your home directory, or in a
       different file whose name is then passed to the script as its first (and only) command line argument.
