Run aria2 with rpc enabled

  • Straightforward Method (suitable for test purpose or temporary tasks)

Open the Terminal and run:

aria2c --enable-rpc --rpc-listen-all rpc-allow-origin-all=true rpc-secret=token

The disadvantage: you have to run this again and again, and don't even think about killing the process before the download is completed. :(

  • "Complicated" Method (config once and forget about it 🎉)

  1. Create your aria2 config file ~/.config/aria2/aria2.conf which at least contains the lines below:
enable-rpc=true
rpc-listen-all=true
rpc-allow-origin-all=true
rpc-secret=token
  1. Download this file, put it into ~/Library/LaunchAgents/.

  2. Restart your computer or run launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.github.aria2.plist.
