Proposal

I'm trying to use tdl on my VPS to download files from a specific channel. That Channel has around 1000 files with a total of 100GB in size.

The problem is my server has about 20GB of free space and I can't download the whole Channel in one go.
I tried to run tdl and when it downloaded about 15GB, stop it.
then download files it has downloaded and delete them from VPS.
then run the command again to resume.

I thought using --continue would work, but it seems it's not.

This is the command I run:
/opt/tdl/tdl --storage type=file,path=/opt/tdl/data/tdl.json dl --limit 2 --ntp pool.ntp.org --threads 8 --continue --skip-same --file /opt/tdl/chat_ids/1234.json --dir /opt/tdl/downloads/1234

Is there a way to solve this?

Background

Downloading big channels on hosts with limited storage.

Workarounds

No. I couldn't find any yet.
