Aria2 Download Manager Integration Firefox

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

Features & Capabilities

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.

User Reviews

The add-on is generally praised as a convenient and reliable Firefox aria2 manager with a user-friendly design and good performance on Windows and Raspberry Pi. However, users report intrusive notifications, the inability to disable or customize them, issues saving RPC keys, and a Google Sheets export bug. There are cross-platform concerns, with Windows support being clear while other platforms are less so. Overall, the tool is well-regarded with areas for improvement in UX and cross-platform support.
Pros
  • Very convenient and reliable aria2 download manager for Firefox.
  • User-friendly design, easier to use than some other aria2 plugins.
  • Works well on Windows and Raspberry Pi (Raspbian).
  • Generally positive performance and reliability (works great / excellent).
Cons
  • Notifications are intrusive and cannot be turned off.
  • Cannot save RPC key in the aria2ng page; you must re-enter it each time.
  • Export from Google Sheets can export all sheets instead of only the currently selected one.
  • Windows-only limitation (cross-platform support is limited).
