This is the Kiwix official Download Repository. You may find here ZIM
file we have prepared, but also everything necessary to compile Kiwix
by yourself.

We always search for new mirrors, especialy for our big ZIM files in
the /zim directory. If you have a public HTTP(S) server with at least
100Mb/s available bandwidth, you may mirror these files using rsync:

  rsync -vzrlptD --delete download.kiwix.org::download.kiwix.org/zim/ \
    ./zim/

If you want to know what is the size of each directory, you can run
the following command:

  for DIR in `rsync --list-only --exclude "*.*" \
  --exclude "README" download.kiwix.org::download.kiwix.org/* | \
  tr -s ' ' | cut -d ' ' -f5` ; do SIZE=`rsync --info=stats2 -h -r \
  "download.kiwix.org::download.kiwix.org/$DIR/" | \
  grep "Total file size" | sed 's/.*://'` ; echo $DIR:$SIZE ; done

If you want to mirror only the last version of the ZIM files (should
be avoided for official Kiwix mirrors) you can get the list with the
following command:

  for ENTRY in `rsync --recursive --list-only \
  download.kiwix.org::download.kiwix.org/zim/ | grep ".zim" | \
  tr -s ' ' | cut -d ' ' -f5 | sort -r` ; do RADICAL=`echo $ENTRY | \
  sed 's/_20[0-9][0-9]-[0-9][0-9]\.zim//g'`; if [[ $LAST != $RADICAL \
  ]] ; then echo $ENTRY ; LAST=$RADICAL ; fi ; done
