"""A simple script that attempts to directly download a single blob.
To Do:
------
Currently `lbrynet blob get <hash>` does not work to download single blobs
which are not already present in the system. The function locks up and
never returns.
It only works for blobs that are in the `blobfiles` directory already.
This bug is reported in lbryio/lbry-sdk, issue #2070.
Maybe this script can be investigated, and certain parts can be added to
`lbry.extras.daemon.daemon.jsonrpc_blob_get`
in order to solve the previous issue, and finally download single blobs
from the network (peers or reflector servers).
