Minor update

What is this?

This is the initial release of Imgur Downloader console application. It was built using Python 3.5, and tested on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. cd into project directory and you can use it like this:

python3 crawlgur.py -v https://imgur.com/a/album_id /path/to/directory

For help, use:

python3 crawlgur.py -h

How to use it in personal projects?

All documentation is contained within classes, so peek into the source code. Here is a simple example:

from imgur import Imgur

imgur = Imgur('http://i.imgur.com/jedEzFL.jpg')

# Connect to imgur and find image link(s) for supplied link
imgur.prepare_images()

# Add numeration to image filenames (i.e. image.jpg -> 1-image.jpg)
imgur.numerate_images()

If you want to download images, you can include downloader into your project too:

from downloader import Downloader

downloader = Downloader(imgur.images, '/home/user/Download')
downloader.download()

What is new?

• License added

Known limitations

• Cannot download collection of user galleries from links such as: [username].imgur.com
• Behavior with large size .png files is not yet tested
