## [development]

## [1.0.0] — 2026-06-26

First public release: a modern IPv6-first command-line download utility built on
the Go standard library. goget provides parallel chunked downloads, resume
support, checksum verification, recursive website mirroring, and support for 9
network protocols — all in a single static binary with zero runtime dependencies.

### Added

**Core engine**

- Unified download and upload architecture via `core.Protocol` interface.
- Protocol registry with scheme normalization (https→http, ftps→ftp).
- Structured error types (`NETWORK`, `PROTOCOL`, `FILE`, `TIMEOUT`, `AUTH`,
  `CHECKSUM`, `UNSUPPORTED`, `CANCELLED`).
- Request context with protocol chain tracking, attempt counting, and
  cancellation.
- Smart timeout calculation based on file size, minimum speed, and safety factor.
- IPv6-first transport dialer with automatic IPv4 fallback.

**Protocols**

- **HTTP/HTTPS** — HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/2, TLS 1.2/1.3, content negotiation,
  auto-decompression.
- **FTP/FTPS** — active and passive modes, explicit TLS (AUTH TLS), resume via
  REST command.
- **SFTP** — custom SFTP v3 implementation over SSH, `known_hosts` verification,
  resume, private key and password authentication.
- **WebDAV** — file download, recursive directory download, upload via HTTP PUT,
  MKCOL for directory creation.
- **file://** — local file copy with recursive directory support.
- **data:** — RFC 2397 data URIs (base64 and plain text).
- **Gopher** — RFC 1436 with item type parsing.
- **Gemini** — TLS 1.2+ connections, redirect following, status code handling
  (1x–6x).

**Network & transport**

- Concurrent chunked downloads for files over 100 MB with `Range` requests.
- Per-chunk resume metadata for interrupted parallel downloads.
- HTTP CONNECT and SOCKS5 (`socks5://`, `socks5h://`) proxy support with
  username/password authentication.
- Custom DNS servers via `--dns-servers`.
- Network interface binding via `SO_BINDTODEVICE` (Linux).
- SSRF protection — blocks connections to private/internal IPs by default,
  override with `--allow-private`.
- IPv4-mapped IPv6 normalization to prevent SSRF bypass.
- Token bucket rate limiting.
- Exponential backoff retry logic with configurable max retries.
- `--retry-all-errors` to retry on HTTP 4xx/5xx responses.
- `--pinned-cert` SHA-256 certificate pinning.

**Authentication**

- HTTP Basic authentication (RFC 7617).
- HTTP Digest authentication (RFC 7616).
- OAuth 2.0 — client credentials, authorization code, password, and refresh
  token grant types with 30-second expiry grace period.
- OAuth error sanitization (RFC 6749 §5.2).
- `.netrc` auto-reading with machine and default entry resolution.
- Netscape-format cookie jar with import/export.
- Per-request cookies via `--cookie` CLI flag.
- SFTP SSH key auto-detection.
- `--password-file` for secure password loading.
- Config sanitization — strips credentials when saving to disk.
- `core.SafeURL()` — strips credentials from URLs in error messages and logs.

**Recursive downloading & mirroring**

- Recursive HTML link following with configurable depth limit.
- Full website mirroring with infinite depth and automatic link conversion.
- HTML parsing via `golang.org/x/net/html`.
- Link filtering by domain, accept pattern (glob and MIME), reject pattern, and
  exclusion list.
- Page requisites — automatic CSS, JavaScript, and image downloading.
- `--no-parent`, `--span-hosts`, `--domains`, `--random-wait`.
- `--adjust-extension`, `--timestamping`, `--cut-dirs`.
- Link rewriting for offline viewing — absolute, protocol-relative, and
  root-relative URLs.
- `--backup-converted` keeps `.orig` backups before link conversion.
- `robots.txt` compliance with `--no-robots` override.

**Verification & security**

- Checksum verification — SHA-256, SHA-512, SHA3-256, SHA3-512, BLAKE2b, MD5.
- SHA256SUMS file parsing (plain and binary-mode).
- PGP detached signature verification (`.asc`, `.sig`, `.gpg`).
- PGP decryption with private key and passphrase.
- HSTS cache (RFC 6797) — automatic HTTP→HTTPS upgrade.
- TLS certificate pinning, mTLS support, custom CA bundle.
- `--ssl-key-log` TLS session key logging (Wireshark-compatible).
- Atomic file writes with mode `0600` for config, resume metadata, and temp
  files.

**Download management**

- Persistent download queue with priority (1–10) and JSON storage.
- Multi-source Metalink downloads (`.meta4`, `.metalink`) with automatic
  failover.
- Batch URL loading from files.
- Cron-based scheduling (`MIN HOUR DOM MON DOW` and `YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM`).
- Post-download command hooks with environment variables.
- WARC (Web ARChive) output for archival compliance.
- Upload support — HTTP PUT and POST with multipart form data.

**Output & progress**

- Unicode progress bar with filled/empty blocks and real-time speed.
- Speed sparkline — mini ASCII chart of recent speed history.
- Estimated time remaining (ETA) calculation.
- Dot progress bar style, JSON progress output for scripting.
- `--write-out` metadata output, `--trace-time` HTTP timing breakdown.
- `--show-headers`, `--keep-timestamps`, `--content-disposition`.
- Color output with `always`, `never`, and `auto` modes (honors `NO_COLOR`).

**Archive & compression**

- Transparent decompression — gzip, deflate, zlib, bzip2, LZW.
- Archive extraction — TAR, TAR.GZ, TAR.BZ2, ZIP with auto-detection.

**Internationalization**

- IDN (International Domain Names) support with Punycode conversion via
  `golang.org/x/net/idna`.

**CLI**

- Long flags only (`--url`, `--output`, `--verbose`).
- Shell completion generation — bash, zsh, and fish.
- Man page generation in troff format.
- Category-organized help text.
- `--info`, `--benchmark`, `--spider`, `--dry-run`, `--glob`.

**Configuration**

- TOML configuration file at `~/.config/goget/config.toml`.
- `GOGET_CONFIG` environment variable for alternative config path.
- CLI flag overrides merged on top of config and defaults.
- Config commands — init, get, set, list, unset.

**Library API (`pkg/api/`)**

- `Client` type with functional options (`WithTimeout`, `WithUserAgent`,
  `WithVerbose`).
- `Client.Download()` and `Client.Upload()` with structured request/result types.
- `QueueClient` for programmatic queue management.
- `ParseMetalink()`, `FetchMetalink()`, `LoadConfig()`, `DefaultConfig()`,
  `ParseSpeed()`, `Version()`.
- One-shot convenience functions: `Download()`, `Upload()`.

**Build & platforms**

- FreeBSD — amd64, arm64, riscv64.
- Static binary with zero runtime dependencies (stdlib only +
  `golang.org/x/` packages).

**Project & tooling**

- Documentation set: architecture, API, authentication, CLI reference,
  configuration, download pipeline, protocols, recursive & mirror, security.
- `just` task set (`install`, `run`, `build`, `test`, `uninstall`).
- Forgejo Actions CI (go vet, test + race, fuzz, release).
- `CONTRIBUTING.md` with Conventional Commits and release process.
