# FurAffinity Downloader
|
|
**furaffinity-dl** is a bash script for batch downloading of galleries and favorites from furaffinity.net users.
|
|
I've written it for preservation of culture, to counter the people nuking their galleries every once a while.
|
|
|
|
Supports all known submission types: images, texts and audio. Sorts downloaded files in chronological order.
|
|
I'd like to eventually expand it to download the description pages as well. Patches are welcome!
|
|
|
|
## Requirements
|
|
|
|
Coreutils, bash and wget are the only dependencies.
|
|
|
|
furaffinity-dl was tested only on Linux. It should also work on Mac and BSDs.
|
|
Windows users can probably get it to work via Cygwin or Microsoft's "BASH on Windows", but running a virtual machine with Linux might be simpler.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
`furaffinity-dl section/username`
|
|
|
|
All files from the given section and user will be downloaded to the current directory.
|
|
|
|
### Examples
|
|
`furaffinity-dl gallery/kodardragon`
|
|
|
|
`furaffinity-dl scraps/---`
|
|
|
|
`furaffinity-dl favorites/kivuli`
|
|
|
|
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/export-cookies/) and [for Chrome/Vivaldi](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/export-cookies/)) and pass them to the script as a second parameter, like this:
|
|
|
|
`furaffinity-dl gallery/gonnaneedabiggerboat /path/to/your/cookies.txt`
|
|
|
|
## TODO
|
|
* Download author's description of the artwork, and ideally the entire description page along with user comments
|
|
|
|
## Disclaimer
|
|
It is your own responsibility to check whether batch downloading is allowed by FurAffinity terms of service and to abide by them. For further disclaimers see LICENSE.
