Clone the repository\n2. If necessary, install dependencies: `pip3 install -r requirements.txt`\n3. Modify the addon-list.json file to include the IDs/URLs of the add-ons you want to download (see below).\n4. Execute the script: `./addon-downloader.py`\n\nAll downloaded add-ons will be placed in the current directory.\n\n### Finding an add-on's ID\nYou can use the search API to search for the add-on by name.\n\nFor example, modify this URL to use any search term:\n```\nhttps://services.addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/api/1.5/search/adblock+plus\n```\n\nThe first result is likely the one you are looking for:\n```xml\n\u003caddon id=\"1865\"\u003e\n```\n\nSo, the Adblock Plus ID is `1865`.\n\nYou can now add this to the configuration:\n```json\n{\n    \"name\": \"AdBlock Plus\",\n    \"source\": \"amo\",\n    \"amoid\": 1865\n}\n```\n\n### Using an add-on's URL\nIf you have the direct URL for the XPI file (for example, [HTTPS Everywhere](https://www.eff.org/https-everywhere) lists the URL on their website), you can insert that URL directly into the configuration:\n```json\n{\n    \"name\": \"HTTPS Everywhere\",\n    \"source\": \"url\",\n    \"url\": \"https://www.eff.org/files/https-everywhere-latest.xpi\"\n}                \n```\n\n## Contributing\nLooking to contribute? Submit an issue or pull-request.\n\nPlease be sure to check the LICENSE file.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Faustinhartzheim%2Faddon-downloader","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Faustinhartzheim%2Faddon-downloader","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Faustinhartzheim%2Faddon-downloader/lists"}
