NAME

       megarc - Configuration file for megatools

SYNOPSIS

       ~/.megarc
       ./.megarc

DESCRIPTION

       Megatools use INI configuration file to store commonly used login credentials. This makes it less
       bothersome to use the tools, as you can simply write

           $ megadf

       instead of

           $ megadf --username my@email.com --password mypass

       when using the tools.

       Configuration file is read either from the current directory or user’s home directory. Exceptions are
       when --ignore-config-file was passed to the tool, or when explicit path to the config file was given via
       --config <path>.

CONFIG FILE SECTIONS

       All sections are optional. All names are case sensitive, thus you must write [Login], and not [login],
       and so on.

   [Login] Section
       Username
           Your username.

       Password
           Your password. Be aware that back slashes have special meaning. If you have back slash in your
           password, you must escape it with another backslash. For example: my\nice\password would be written
           as my\\nice\\password in the config file.

   [Cache] Section
       Timeout
           Cache timeout in seconds (default is 10 minutes).

   [Network] Section
       DownloadSpeedLimit
           Set maximum allowed download speed in KiB/s. 0 means no limit. Overrides SpeedLimit setting.

       UploadSpeedLimit
           Set maximum allowed upload speed in KiB/s. 0 means no limit. Overrides SpeedLimit setting. When using
           ParallelTransfers > 1, upload speed limit is applied to each transfer individually.

       SpeedLimit
           Set maximum allowed upload and download speed in KiB/s. 0 means no limit.

       ParallelTransfers
           Set maximum allowed number of parallel connections when upload or downloading a file. The file is
           split into chunks of a size between 128 kiB and 1 MiB, and these chunks are uploaded in parallel. The
           number must be between 1 and 16. Default is 5.

       Proxy
           Use proxy server to connect to mega.nz. More information can be found in libcurl documentation at
           https://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/CURLOPT_PROXY.html. Some acceptable values are:

           •   socks5://localhost:9050 : Local SOCKSv5 proxy server

           •   socks5h://localhost:9050 : Local SOCKSv5 proxy server with DNS handled by the proxy

   [Upload] Section
       CreatePreviews
           Create Previews (see --enable-previews option).

EXAMPLE

       Create ~/.megarc (on linux) or mega.ini file containing these 3 lines:

           [Login]
           Username = your@email
           Password = yourpassword

           [Network]
           # 1MiB/s
           SpeedLimit = 1024
           # Use over TOR
           Proxy = socks5://127.0.0.1:9050
           ParallelTransfers = 2

       Run megadf(1) to check that megatools are able to login to your account.
