Two major updates come to 4scraper in this release.
Parallel Downloads
4scraper now uses go routines to retrieve images and videos in parallel. The number of concurrent downloads is currently throttled at 20 and cannot be changed. This might be changed in the future.
Parallel downloading is enabled by default. To disable, you'll need to create/update your 4scraper.config to set ParallelDownload=false.
Thread Search
You can now search threads in a particular board then download directly from the results!
- Run
4scraper.exe -f [board] [keywords]for example:4scraper.exe -f g linux desktop. This will search all keywords in the given board and return information about any threads that match all keywords.
[Thread No] [URL] (Images: No of Images)
[Thread Subtitle]
[Thread OP Comment]
- You will then be prompted to either enter a thread number to download all files from that thread, "all" to download files from all threads returned, or "q" to exit.
Hope you all enjoy this new update :) Have fun, and use responsibly.
