I have seen this but it's not working. The remote/ftp directory structure is this:
domain.com/
toplevel/
foo1/
ARCHIVE/
README.stuff
DATA/
README.txt
...other nested folders
wantedstuff.zip
wantedstuff2/
morewantedstuff.zip
...otherstuffwanted
I want everything within /toplevel
EXCEPT everything inside the /ARCHIVE
folders for each nested folder in /toplevel/*
.
I tried this:
wget --continue -r --exclude-directories=/ARCHIVE/ ftp://domain.com/toplevel/
and these:
wget --continue -r --exclude-directories=ARCHIVE ftp://domain.com/toplevel/
wget --continue -r --exclude-directories=ARCHIVE/ ftp://domain.com/toplevel/
wget --continue -r X /ARCHIVE/ ftp://domain.com/toplevel/
wget --continue -r -X '*/ARCHIVE/*' ftp://domain.com/toplevel/
wget --continue -r -X '*/ARCHIVE' ftp://domain.com/toplevel/
wget --continue -r --reject-regex '.*/ARCHIVE/.*' ftp://domain.com/toplevel/
But none seem to work, it still downloads that ARCHIVE folder. Wondering how to prevent it from downloading.
