AniLink-Downloader

AniLink-Downloader downloads and unpacks media from single or multipart archives (mostly .rar, which may be password protected), and runs as one Docker container with a web page. Paste the hoster links of a season, an episode or a film, and it

  • creates the direct download links with Debrid-Link,
  • downloads the archive parts (several at a time, with live progress),
  • unpacks them with 7-Zip, trying your default passwords before it asks you,
  • renames the video (and its .nfo and info.txt) after the episode or the film and puts them into a folder named after the show.

Everything stays local: there is no account, no login and no database. 7-Zip is part of the image, so Docker is the only thing you have to install. The web page is laid out for a phone as well as for a desktop, so you can follow and manage the downloads from your phone, too.
