Pixiv Downloader 20101024

UPDATED here

Long time no update, kinda busy looking for a job here, just recently graduated from my uni 🙂

Changelog:

  • 20101024:
    – by Nandaka:
    – Fix error when dumping html.
    – Change exit behaviour, no need to press enter twice if you select exit.
  • 20101005:
    – by Yavos:
    – added commandline-option: <-n number> to temporarily overwrite config-settings for <numberofpage>
    – added new options in config.ini (for details see readme.txt)
    (<createDownloadLists>, <downloadListDirectory>, <startIrfanView>, <startIrfanSlide>, <IrfanViewPath>)
    – added commandline-option <-i> to automatically start IrfanView with list of downloaded Images
    (this option only takes effect when <startIrfanView> and <startIrfanSlide> from config.ini are not set True)
    – images will get the extension <.pixiv> until they are complete (prevent incomplete image-downloads)
    – fix: all downloaded images will be added in DB (until now it was limited to images downloaded by member_id/list of member_ids)
    (note: you can reset it again by setting <Yavos = False> in sourcecode line 27)
    – added feature: when (directly or indirectly) set in config.ini pixivUtil will create lists of your downloaded images in <Downloaded_on_YYYY_MM_DD.txt> (using date when pixivUtil is launched)
    – added feature: start IrfanView when exiting pixivUtil (Slideshow will be started before normal IrfanView-Window)
    – added feature: typing <-all> in menu will temporarily activate/deactivate pagelimit set in config.ini (it will set commandline-option <-n 0>)

Pixiv Downloader 20100908

Latest Update here.

Changelog:

  • Add command line option and other bug by Yavos.
  • Fix download by tags. A little note: somehow I can’t use kana for the search query (it gives encoding error), work fine for romaji.
  • Add readme.txt and changelog.txt, please read.
  • Changed rootdirectory option behaviour, you need to fill it or it will goes to C:

Known bugs:

  • Download by tags need additional step if you want to use kana (kanji/hiragana/katakana). Example: if you looking for 秋山澪, you need to copy the query part (after word=) from the url from your browser (http://www.pixiv.net/search.php?s_mode=s_tag&word=%E7%A7%8B%E5%B1%B1%E6%BE%AA ) and paste it to the console. I’ve tried to encode it using urllib.quote/quote_plus but the resulting string is different. Any solution?

Download link is here, and the source code is here.

On side notes: To Yavos and other contributors, should I put the source code to googleproject /other online versioning site? Any experience or comments? And somehow when using WinMerge to merge the codes, they messing up with the encoding… Know better (free) alternative?

UPDATED in here.

Changelog 20100722:

  • Add menu selection, download by member_id, image_id, tags, or list.

  • Add error checking message from with0out.

Download link here, source code here.

Pixiv changed the CSS, so a little update to reflect it 🙂

Change log:

  • Update css selector
  • Add retry and retrywait in the config.ini, used for defining connection retry when downloading, 0 means no retry.
