This branch is the development version of furaffinity-dl rewritten in python.

# FurAffinity Downloader
**furaffinity-dl** was a bash script (now in python) for batch downloading of galleries (and scraps/favourites) from furaffinity users.
It was written for preservation of culture, to counter the people nuking their galleries every once a while.

Supports all known submission types: images, texts and audio.

## Requirements
Exact requirements are unknown since its still in development, but you should only need `beautifulsoup4` to be installed (`pip3 install beautifulsoup4`). I will put a `requirements.txt` file in the repo soon.

**The script currently only works with the "Modern" theme**

furaffinity-dl has only been tested only on Linux, however it should also work on Mac, Windows and any other platform that supports python.

## Usage
Run it with
 `./furaffinity-dl.py category username`
or:
 `python3 furaffinity-dl.py category username`

All files from the given section and user will be downloaded to the current directory.

### Examples
 `python3 furaffinity-dl.py gallery koul`

 `python3 furaffinity-dl.py -o koulsArt gallery koul`

 `python3 furaffinity-dl.py -o mylasFavs favorites mylafox`

For a full list of command line arguments use `./furaffinity-dl -h`.

You can also log in to download restricted content. To do that, log in to FurAffinity in your web browser, export cookies to a file from your web browser in Netscape format (there are extensions to do that [for Firefox](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ganbo/) and [for Chrome base browsers](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/cookiestxt/njabckikapfpffapmjgojcnbfjonfjfg)), you can then pass them to the script with the `-c` flag, like this:

 `python3 furaffinity-dl.py -c cookies.txt gallery letodoesart`

## TODO

 - Download user profile information.
 - "Classic" theme support
 - Login without having to export cookies

It is your own responsibility to check whether batch downloading is allowed by FurAffinity's terms of service and to abide by them. For further disclaimers see LICENSE.
