I created this program to solve this problem and retrieve the original book in pdf format for FREE!\n\nOf course, the download takes a few minutes depending on the number of pages and the quality of the images you have selected. You must also create an account on https://archive.org/ for the script to work.\n\n\n## Getting Started\nTo get started you need to have python3 installed. If it is not the case you can download it here : https://www.python.org/downloads/\n\n### Installation\nMake sure you've already git installed. Then you can run the following commands to get the scripts on your computer:\n   ```sh\n   git clone https://github.com/MiniGlome/Archive.org-Downloader.git\n   cd Archive.org-Downloader\n   ```\nThe script requires the modules `requests`, `tqdm` and `img2pdf`, you can install them all at once with this command:\n```sh\npip install -r requirements.txt\n```\n   \n## Usage\n```sh\nusage: archive-org-downloader.py [-h] -e EMAIL -p PASSWORD [-u URL] [-d DIR] [-f FILE] [-r RESOLUTION] [-t THREADS] [-j]\n\noptional arguments:\n  -h, --help            show this help message and exit\n  -e EMAIL, --email EMAIL\n                        Your archive.org email\n  -p PASSWORD, --password PASSWORD\n                        Your archive.org password\n  -u URL, --url URL     Link to the book (https://archive.org/details/XXXX). You can use this argument several times\n                        to download multiple books\n  -d DIR, --dir DIR     Output directory\n  -f FILE, --file FILE  File where are stored the URLs of the books to download\n  -r RESOLUTION, --resolution RESOLUTION\n                        Image resolution (10 to 0, 0 is the highest), [default 3]\n  -t THREADS, --threads THREADS\n                        Maximum number of threads, [default 50]\n  -j, --jpg             Output to individual JPG's rather than a PDF\n  -m, --meta            Output the metadata of the book to a json file\n```\nThe `email` and `password` fields are required, so to use this script you must have a registered account on archive.org.\nThe `-r` argument specifies the resolution of the images (0 is the best quality).\nThe PDF are downloaded in the current folder\n\n### Example\nThis command will download the 3 books as pdf in the best possible quality. To only download the individual images you can use `--jpg`.\n```sh\npython3 archive-org-downloader.py -e myemail@tempmail.com -p Passw0rd -r 0 -u https://archive.org/details/IntermediatePython -u https://archive.org/details/horrorgamispooky0000bidd_m7r1 -u https://archive.org/details/elblabladelosge00gaut \n```\n\nIf you want to download a lot of books, you can paste the urls of the books in a .txt file (one per line) and use `--file`\n```sh\npython3 archive-org-downloader.py -e myemail@tempmail.com -p Passw0rd --file books_to_download.txt\n```\n\n## Donation\nIf you want to support my work, you can send 2 or 3 Bitcoins 🙃 to this address: \n```\nbc1q4nq8tjuezssy74d5amnrrq6ljvu7hd3l880m7l\n```\n![bitcoin_address](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/54740007/169100171-1061c7a0-207e-459b-84de-2d6bb93b0f38.png)\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2FMiniGlome%2FArchive.org-Downloader","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2FMiniGlome%2FArchive.org-Downloader","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2FMiniGlome%2FArchive.org-Downloader/lists"}
