title: How to download a file from the internet to a Google Cloud bucket directly
body: <p>I want to download a file over 20GB from the internet into a google cloud bucket directly. Just like doing in a local command line the following:</p>
  
  <pre><code>wget http://some.url.com/some/file.tar 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I refuse to download the file to my own computer and then copying the file to the bucket using:</p>
  
  <pre><code>gsutil cp file.tar gs://the-bucket/
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>For the moment I am trying (just at this very moment) to use datalab to download the file and then copying the file from there to the bucket.</p>
