Doesn't work

Also all y'all check out https://megatools.megous.com/ which is still working..

Is there a php version?

Amazing, it's working!
Thanks!

There is an issue on macOS Big Sur with receiving proper hex and raw_hex values. Something with key value not being converted with tr, od and base64 pipes, so it results with raw_hex variable to become empty, although the key value is the same as on Linux and can download on Linux system.

BTW I used https://mega.nz/#!8soDySiQ!Z6I57NiZ-K5CeE8E95ZKZyL1aSpdoo3eoDA_tE0Dlsc as example of this issue.
Resulting key value on both systems is Z6I57NiZ-K5CeE8E95ZKZyL1aSpdoo3eoDA_tE0Dlsc with Z6I57NiZ-K5CeE8E95ZKZyL1aSpdoo3eoDA_tE0Dlsc= used to be converted.

Here is a part where this goes wrong:

+ key=Z6I57NiZ-K5CeE8E95ZKZyL1aSpdoo3eoDA_tE0Dlsc
++ echo Z6I57NiZ-K5CeE8E95ZKZyL1aSpdoo3eoDA_tE0Dlsc=
++ tr '\-_' +/
++ tr -d ,
++ base64 -d -i
++ od -v -An -t x1
++ tr -d '\n '
+ raw_hex=
++ printf %016x 0 0
+ hex=00000000000000000000000000000000

I think that I found a very simple solution on macOS. Just add - to base64 command, so in the script should like this:

raw_hex=$(echo "${key}=" | tr '\-_' '+/' | tr -d ',' | base64 -d -i - 2>/dev/null | od -v -An -t x1 | tr -d '\n ')

Works on macOS and Linux with example https://mega.nz/#!8soDySiQ!Z6I57NiZ-K5CeE8E95ZKZyL1aSpdoo3eoDA_tE0Dlsc.

Mega decided to change the url's, so, this method it's not working for the moment.

I works as of 15 May, 2023

Works with old Mega URLs of the following two forms:

https://mega.nz/#!Wt0F1bpR!WlCGMYlOS_K23Q4wH5isOK7Oin6qsa2uyEAG3C5G3ro
https://mega.nz/file/Wt0F1bpR#WlCGMYlOS_K23Q4wH5isOK7Oin6qsa2uyEAG3C5G3ro

But not with the following forms:

https://mega.nz/folder/j9UklByL#UGECRD-W1P3gqv2na_GAmA/file/r8kA3KjI

The following CURL command would get the right JSON for the URL above, just not sure where the key is provided in this case, mega says it's "UGECRD-W1P3gqv2na_GAmA/file/r8kA3KjI" but not sure. Perhaps in the returned JSON string:

CURL -s -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '[{"a":"g","g":1,"ssl":1,"v":2,"n":"r8kA3KjI"}]' 'https://g.api.mega.co.nz/cs?n=j9UklByL'

All three URL forms specify the exact same file/resource.

$ ./megafetch.sh https://mega.nz/file/IfhCkAbK#FEokgrYNas-xRidBzYQ8FSuKfjQOBlu5zpK6HFpVt6Q

tell me to download a file not a folder show me code in python or curl whtever pls help

i've been suspicious with the ISP, cause i specifically can't connect to the link or my drive, that's probably the main cause

make it for folders and new type link version make a repo

It works for extracting the download link pretty well. But then we get the bandwidth limit exceeding error

HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 509 Bandwidth Limit Exceeded
2024-07-14 ERROR 509: Bandwidth Limit Exceeded.

Anyone knows any ways to bypass it?

@jakariyaa That may be due to non-premium accounts having a limited amount of bytes that they can download in a specific amount of time. Once that limit is reached, they probably throw that message to let you know they want you to go premium. That's likely enforced server-side so there is probably little you can do to circumvent it.
