Aria2 Download Manager Integration

Replace built-in download manager. When activated, detects the download links to direct links to this add-on and send to Aria2

Aria2 Download Manager Integration is a powerful Firefox extension that replaces the built-in download manager by automatically detecting download links and sending them directly to Aria2. It supports sending HTTP headers like referrer and cookies, allowing for seamless downloads with necessary context. The extension can automatically run and shut down the Aria2 daemon (aria2c) to streamline the download process.

To use the extension, users need to have Aria2 installed and configure connection settings such as protocol, host, port, and interface within the extension options. While it enhances download handling significantly, it currently does not support FTP downloads and may occasionally show errors if Aria2 hasn't fully started. Aria2 Download Manager Integration leverages Mayswind's AriaNg interface for an improved user experience, facilitating efficient and powerful download management within Firefox.

每次开始下载和下载完成都会有个通知,没法关,而且这个通知会遮挡住motrix的通知,motrix的通知点击能打开文件位置,所以就很麻烦了
