Re: [Bug-wget] wget ignores --mirror option on openWrt's Luci interface

[Tim Ruehsen]

Hi Olivier,

I think I got it (I didn't test -m, but it should work like -r -N).

Your first command is as you already did it:
wget --save-cookies cookies.txt --keep-session-cookies --post-data 
'username=root&password=' http://172.16.1.1/cgi-bin/luci/

This saves the 'index.html' generated after a successful login. It is the page 
that your browser shows.
Wget also puts the login cookie into cookies.txt.

For a recursive download/mirroring Wget has to start from the above 
index.html:
wget -r --load-cookies cookies.txt --base=http://172.16.1.1/cgi-bin/luci/ --
force-html -i index.html

That's it. You now should have a directory structure 172.16.1.1/ with all the 
files in it.

Regards, Tim
