Description

https://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.lua/arrow/arrow-3.0.0/apache-arrow-3.0.0.tar.gz shows a page that shows mirror URL. Users need to click download link in the page. It's inconvenient. We can't use wget or curl with the URL in our install page.

We can use https://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.lua?action=download&filename=arrow/arrow-3.0.0/apache-arrow-3.0.0.tar.gz with wget or curl:

wget --content-disposition https://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.lua?action=download&filename=arrow/arrow-3.0.0/apache-arrow-3.0.0.tar.gz
curl -L -O https://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.lua?action=download&filename=arrow/arrow-3.0.0/apache-arrow-3.0.0.tar.gz
