I am using the following command in CMD.
wget "http://gribs2.gmn-usa.com/cgi-bin/weather_fetch.pl?parameter=wind&days=7®ion=NorthEurope&dataset=nww3"
Wget download then a file with the name weather_fetch.pl@parameter=wind&days=7®ion=NorthEurope&dataset=nww3
.
When I'm using my webbrowser I'm getting the file _cache_weather-cache_NorthEurope.wind.7days.grb.bz2
.
I need the second file, the first one is some gibberish. I tried to add the wait command but it did not work.
wget
has a -O
switch to specify the output filename.
a so command line would be:
wget -O _cache_weather-cache_NorthEurope.wind.7days.grb.bz2 "http://gribs2.gmn-usa.com/cgi-bin/weather_fetch.pl?parameter=wind&days=7®ion=NorthEurope&dataset=nww3"
That however might not always be what is needed because it is a static name and each time you download the file, the old one is replaced. So depending on the purpose of the download, you can make it more dynamic by using a batch-file and adding a date to the filename:
@echo off
for /f %%i in ('powershell -command Get-Date -format "yyyyMMdd"') do (
wget -O "%%~i_cache_weather-cache_NorthEurope.wind.7days.grb.bz2" "http://gribs2.gmn-usa.com/cgi-bin/weather_fetch.pl?parameter=wind&days=7®ion=NorthEurope&dataset=nww3"
)
which, considering today's date, will result in a filename of:
20210516_cache_weather-cache_NorthEurope.wind.7days.grb.bz2
