## Project history and usage

getparty is a small Go command-line HTTP download manager focused on multi-part downloads, resumable sessions, custom headers, proxy use, TLS options, and choosing the best mirror from a list.

### Project history

The public GitHub repository was created in 2016. Its README presents the tool as an HTTP download manager with multi-part support and documents installation through Homebrew, the Arch User Repository, and source builds.

### Adoption history

Adoption evidence is narrow: the project has an official repository, tagged GitHub releases, a Homebrew formula, and AUR installation instructions. It appears to serve users who want a compact downloader rather than a broad ecosystem role.

### How it is used

Practitioners use getparty to split a download into parts, retry failed parts, resume incomplete sessions from a JSON session file, set basic authentication or arbitrary HTTP headers, route through a proxy, adjust buffers and speed limits, and test mirrors before downloading.

### Why package nerds care

For package users, getparty is mostly interesting as a single-purpose Go CLI that packages into one executable and exposes many downloader controls without depending on a larger download-suite stack.

### Timeline

- 2016: The public GitHub repository for getparty was created.
- 2025-2026: The repository published a steady 1.23 through 1.26 tag series.

### Related projects

- getparty overlaps with traditional command-line downloaders and segmented HTTP download managers, but its official sources do not identify a direct upstream lineage.
