DrissionGet

What it is and what it does

DrissionGet is a Python file downloader built for concurrent downloads with multithreading and automatic task scheduling. It splits large files into chunks for parallel download, reuses HTTP sessions to maintain login state, and handles common download edge cases like path creation, filename conflicts, and connection retries. The package is designed to integrate with DrissionPage and accepts pre-configured session objects for authenticated downloads.

The tool targets developers who need reliable batch or large-file downloads without managing thread pools or retry logic manually. It depends on requests for HTTP transport and DrissionRecord for task management, and requires Python 3.6 or later.

Use it for:

• Download multiple files concurrently from a list of URLs with automatic scheduling
• Fetch large files with automatic chunking and multithreaded reassembly
• Maintain authenticated download sessions by reusing a logged-in session object
• Batch-download resources while automatically handling filename collisions and path creation
• Append content to existing files during interrupted or resumed downloads

AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying

DrissionGet is a multithreaded file downloader that handles single and batch downloads with automatic chunking, task scheduling, and session reuse for maintaining login state.

Yes, if you need straightforward concurrent downloads with minimal setup. The permissive BSD license, low install friction, and active maintenance make it a reasonable choice for batch or large-file scenarios. Verify that DrissionRecord meets your stability expectations and that session reuse covers your authentication needs before committing to production use.

License in practice

BSD license is permissive, allowing commercial and private use with minimal restrictions—suitable for most projects that include or modify the source.

Quickstart

from DrissionGet import DrissionGet

d = DrissionGet(r'.\files')
d.download('https://example.com/file.zip')

Verify before relying

• Whether DrissionRecord is a first-party or third-party dependency and its stability
• Actual performance characteristics for large files or high concurrency scenarios
• Whether session reuse works with all HTTP authentication schemes
