What is it?

It's a great media scraper for 4chan.org using multiple threads

How does it work?

You create a watchlist file with the urls for the 4chan threads you want to monitor, and the program downloads all the media files of those active threads

Installing

You need to download the latest version from this link, extract the file and run Downloader.exe, Windows will complain about viruses, but it is totally fine, if you really do not trust the program, use Downloader.py instead

Configuring

config.json is the configuration file for this program

config.json

{
    "WatchList": {
        "File": "watchlist.txt",
        "IntervalSeconds": 150
    },
    "Download": {
        "Path": "Downloads"
    },
    "KeepAlive": {
        "Enabled": true,
        "IntervalSeconds": 300
    }
}
