Comic Snagger (comic_snagger)

Python script for downloading comic book images and converting them into a compressed comic book format.

This app was generated with Cookiecutter along with @clamytoe's toepack project template.

Python script for downloading comics from readcomics.io. Run the script and respond to the prompts and it will download all of the images for the comic that you want.

Initial setup

You will need to have requests and BeautifulSoup4 in order to use. It's written for Python 3.6 because I love working with f-strings and its about time everyone upgraded.

cd Projects
git clone https://github.com/clamytoe/comic_snagger.git
cd comic_snagger

Anaconda setup

conda env create

Regular Python setup

pip install -r requirements.txt

Final setup

activate comic_snagger # or source activate comic_snagger
pip install -e .

Usage

comic_snagger

Once you've started downloading a comic, it will continue until it's done. If you stop it at any point, no need to worry. The script will continue where it left off. Just start the same comic once again and let it do its thing.
