# gallery-dl-archive-manager
|
|
|
|
Scripts to manage a (currently twitter only) archive using gallery-dl. Much of the code came from a need to augment pre-existing, outdated archives that were originally created from the `twittermediadownloader` browser extension.
|
|
|
|
## Config
|
|
This repo uses its own `config.json` in order to save media in the same format as `twittermediadownloader`. The scripts depend on the media being saved in this format.
|
|
|
|
## Scripts
|
|
|
|
### `node run-initDb.js`
|
|
|
|
Initializes a user database from existing folders. Useful if you have a pre-existing archive of users.
|
|
|
|
Args:
|
|
- `--path={/path/to/your/archive}`
|
|
- `--args={gallery-dl args}`
|
|
|
|
### `node run-downloadDb.js`
|
|
|
|
Runs a full download of all users listed in the db.json of the archive (the provided `--path`).
|
|
|
|
Args:
|
|
- `--path={/path/to/your/archive}`
|
|
- `--threads={#}`
|
|
- `--args={gallery-dl args}`
|
|
|
|
## Args
|
|
|
|
Standard args:
|
|
|
|
### `--path={/path/to/your/archive}`
|
|
|
|
The path to the archive. This is a parent directory with a list of child directories which correspond to users.
|
|
|
|
### `--threads={#}`
|
|
|
|
Max number of concurrent download threads. Only this number of concurrent gallery-dl download threads will run at a given time, other remaining users will be queued.
|
|
|
|
### `--args={gallery-dl args}`
|
|
|
|
Additional args to pass to gallery-dl. Note that these aren't currently checked for duplicates that may be used by this repo.
|
|
|
|
## TODO
|
|
|
|
### `run-addUsers.js`
|
|
|
|
Should add a new user to the db and initiate a full download similar to `run-downloadDb.js`
|
|
|
|
Args:
|
|
- `--path={/path/to/your/archive}`
|
|
- `--users={string array of user(s)}`
|
|
- `--threads={#}`
|
|
|
|
### `run-updateDb.js`
|
|
|
|
Should pull from the user database and update the archive without doing a full download.
|
|
|
|
Args:
|
|
- `--path={/path/to/your/archive}`
|
|
- `--mode={search|media}`
|
|
- `search`: The DB should save with a lastUpdated field. This should be used as a date for the /search API. Preferred if it's been a long time since an update has happened for a user and/or the user has uploaded a significant amount of media since lastUpdated.
|
|
- `media`: This should run /media and stop after hitting skipped files, as skipped files indicate hitting lastUpdated. Preferred in normal circumstances.
|
|
- `--threads={#}`
|
|
- `--args={gallery-dl args}`
