@ -15,10 +15,14 @@ Args:
- `--path={/path/to/your/archive}`
- `--threads={#}`
- `--args={gallery-dl args}`
- `--usersPerBatch={#}`
- `--waitTime={#}`
Example:
- `node run-downloadDb.js --path=/mnt/data/archive --threads=3 --args="-r 2.5M"` will run a full download (`/media` followed by `/search` starting from the oldest pulled file from `/media`) of all the users in the `/mnt/data/archive/db.json` file, limiting concurrent download threads to 3. It will pass the additional args `-r 2.5M --no-skip` to the gallery-dl bin being executed; `-r 2.5M --no-skip` corresponds to limiting the download rate to 2.5M and downloading all files without skipping (for the sake of example).
Adding `--usersPerBatch={#}` and `--waitTime={#}` together will activate a batching mechanism which will split the userList in the db.json in chunks of the specified `usersPerBatch` and then wait `waitTime` amount of seconds between each batch in order to throttle any downloads. Without this, 100+ users in a short amount of time could introduce problems, whereas for example ~30 users with ~5 minutes between each batch tends to avoid problems.
### `run-downloadUsers.js`
Adds new user(s) to the db and initiate a full download similar to `run-downloadDb.js`. If db.json is not present, one will be created.
