How-To

Extract the contents of ExHentai-Archive in a safe place, this will be the program's home and will stay there and where it will download all your archives. So I reccomend a drive with a large storage space.

First we're going to edit some configuration files, the ones we want to focus on have the .linux extension, mainly the config.json.linux file.

{
	"base": {
		"accessKey": "changeme",
        "autoReadPercentage": 80,
		"viewType": "mpv",
		"cookie": {
            "ipb_member_id": "changeme",
            "ipb_pass_hash": "changeme",
            "hath_perks": "m1.m2.m3.tf.t1.t2.t3.p1.p2.s-210aa44613",
			"sp": "changeme",
			"sk": "changeme"
        },
		"tempDir": "./temp",
        "archiveDir": "./archive",
        "imagesDir": "./images"
	},
	"default": {
		"db": {
			"dsn": "mysql:host=localhost;dbname=exhen",
			"user": "root",
			"pass": "changeme"
		},
		"sphinxql": {
			"dsn": "mysql:host=127.0.0.1;port=9306;dbname=exhen",
			"user": "root",
			"pass": ""
		},
		"memcache": {
			"host": "localhost",
			"port": 11211
		},
		"indexer": {
			"full": "sudo indexer --rotate galleries suggested"
		}
	}
}

Inside the configuration file you'll see this, the three major things you need to edit are "accessKey", "ipb_member_id", "ipb_pass_hash" and sk. accessKey will be password used to confirm you wish to delete archives as well as a passphrase between the browser and server to make sure you're sending a gallery to be archived. So you can really change this to anything you want, or keep it as changeme, all other changeme instances, can remain the same if you wish. (This is extra setup, chaning all configuration files to make this password.)

To get ipb_member_id and ipb_pass_hash you have to find your exhentai.org cookie, to find this you have to browse through your browsers cookies.

Under the ExHetai settings page you need to create a second profile that must use the "List View" settings for the "Front Page Settings" section, this is needed if you wish to view feeds correctly. Now set the "sp" in the "cookie" section to "2". If you don't wish to use feeds in any capacity, please change the cookie to be either blank, or remove it entirely.

  • On firefox you can access this under the options menu under the Privacy tab then clicking "remove individual cookies" and searching for e-hentai and copy pasting the "Content" section into the sections of the configuration file needed

After that, install Vagrant to your system, and make sure to have restarted your computer after installing it (this may or may not be an issue, just do it just in case.)

Open a command prompt window and type in vagrant plugin install vagrant-vbguest and then close the command prompt window after it has finished downloading the plugin.

If you've changed any other passwords in the config.json.linux file please change the following to the be the same:

  • sphinx.conf.linux under source connect option called sql_pass
  • bootstrap.sh option called MYSQL_PASSWORD

Open a new command prompt winodw in the directory where your extracted ExHentai-Archive to and type in vagrant up this will begin a lengthy process of installing and downloading updates so please give it some time.

After vagrant up finishes running, you'll need to run vagrant halt and then vagrant up once more, this fixes an issues with certain services that may not be running correctly, etc.

Afterwards everything should be running smoothly and your vagrant box should be up and running, you can check this by going to https://localhost in your web browser of choice. The https is highly important.

After this you can proceed to userscript setup using the baseUrl as "https://localhost/" and key as whatever you set previously.

If you're on Windows (I assume most using this guide would be) then you can schedule a task to run to open the vagrant box at start up so you don't have to it manually by making a batch file called startup.bat in the ExHentai-Archive folder similar to the following:

@echo off
vagrant up
exit

Then opening "Task Scheduler" and pressing "Action" and "Create Basic Action" setting a name for it, then the rest is self explanatory, when it ask for a program file the .bat file you just made.\

Now you can access https://localhost without doing a thing.

Archiving

After the initial setup is complete and you've setup your userscript in your browser of choice, to download your archives you'll want to goto https://localhost/vagrant/TaskRunner.php?task=Full in your browser, this will invoke the Archive, Thumbnails and Auit actions, however due to some limitations you won't be able to get amazingly formatted output.

After sending galleries to archive, you NEED to do this, this is what actually downloads and archives the files to your computer.

Enjoy it.
