gce-wget is a specialized tool to bulk download IGCSE and AS/A Levels (O Levels not yet supported) papers from papers.gceguide.net, skipping the need to write regexes and make link files. This tool requires wget to be pre-installed on the machine.
Use any of the following methods.
-
You can download the binary from the releases page.
-
Move the binary
gce-wget
to/usr/bin
with
sudo mv Downloads/gce-wget /usr/bin
If you are a Rust programmer and have Cargo installed, simply run the following:
cargo install gce-wget
This will install the binary from crates.io
If you have Cargo installed, run the following commands
git clone https://github.com/famedaxolotl/gce-wget
cd gce-wget
cargo build --release
Now, run with cargo run
or move the binary to /usr/bin
with:
sudo mv target/release/gce-wget /usr/bin
Use gce-wget --help
to see detailed help page.
The basic command structure (no options) is:
gce-wget [SUBJECT_CODE] [YEARS]
For example, gce-wget 0620 2021,2022
will download all papers of IGCSE Chemistry from 2021 and 2022
To selectively download papers, use the -t
(--types
) and -c
(--codes
) options, which allow you to enter comma-seperated lists of paper types and codes.
For example:
gce-wget 0620 -t ms,qp -c 21,41 2022,2023
This downloads all Variant 1 extended MCQ and Theory papers of IGCSE Chemistry years 2022 and 2023, and their marking schemes.
To download O Levels papers, use the -o
(--o-level
) option like so:
gce-wget 5070 -o -t ms,qp -c 11,12 2021
This downloads all Paper 11 and Paper 12 question question paper and marking schemes from O Levels Chemistry 2021.
Use the -i
(--igcse
) and -a
(--a-level
) options if, for example, the programs seems to searching the wrong qualification and is unable to find the subject, even though the correct code was entered.
