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

       $ megatools df

       instead of

       $ megatools df --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).

   UI SECTION
       Colors Enable color output in the progress reporting. Colors are disabled  by  default  to
              support all kinds of terminal configurations. Colors are not configurable, yet.

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

       [UI]
       Colors = true

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