# FAQs



## A. Usage

```

Q1. How to paste Japanese tags to the console window?

    - Click the top-left icon -> select Edit -> Paste (Cannot use Ctrl-V), if

      it show up as question mark -> Change the Language for non-Unicode

      program to Japanese (google it).

    - or use online url encoder (http://meyerweb.com/eric/tools/dencoder/)

      and paste the encoded tag back to the console.

    - or paste it to tags.txt and select download by tags list. Separate each

      tags with space, and separate with new line for new query.



Q2. My password doesn't show up in the console!

    - This is normal. The program still reads it.

    - or you can put in the config.ini if not sure.



Q3. I cannot login to Pixiv!

    - Check your password.

    - Try to login to the Pixiv Website.

    - Try to use the config.ini on the [Authentication] section.

    - Check your date and time setting (e.g.: https://www.timeanddate.com/)

    - Disable Daylight Saving Time and try again.

    - Copy your session values from browser:

      1. Open Firefox.

      2. Go to Pixiv website and login, remember to enable [Remember Me]

          check box.

      3. Press F12 to open Developer Tools, and select the Storage tab.

      4. Click the Cookies and select for the pixiv.net.

      5. Look for Cookie named = PHPSESSID.

      6. Copy the content value. https://imgur.com/a/BppHOoQ

      7. Open config.ini, go to [Authentication] section, paste the value

         to cookie. https://imgur.com/VB2g3qn



Q4. PixivUtil working from local terminal on Linux box but not working when I

    used SSH with PuTTY!

    - export LANG=en_US.UTF-8. PuTTY does not set locales right, when they are

      not set, python does not know what to write (Thanks to nho!)

    - ... and export PYTHONIOENCODING=utf-8, so it can create DB and populate

      it properly (Thanks to Mailia!)



Q5. How to delete member id from Database?

    - Open the application and choose Manage Database (d) then select delete

      Member by Member Id.

    - Open the database (db.sqlite) directly using sqlite browser and use sql

      command to delete it.

    - If you are downloading using Download from List.txt (3), you can create

      ignore_list.txt to skip the member id.



Q6. The app doesn't download all the images! (I want to download SFW images too).

    - Pixiv only allow to search up to 1000 pages if you don't have Pixiv

      Premium.

    - Check your pixiv website settings (refer to https://goo.gl/gQi09v),

      then delete the cookie value in config.ini and retry.

    - Check the value of r18mode in config.ini. Setting it to True will only

      download R-18 images.



Q7. The apps show square/question mark texts in the console output!

    - This is because your Windows is not set to Japanese for the Regional Settings

      in control panel.

    - Since 20161114+ version, you need to set the console font properties to

      use font with unicode support (e.g. Arial Unicode, MS Gothic).



Q8. Where to get FFmpeg software? How to enable `createwebm`?

    - Download the stable version of FFmpeg from https://www.ffmpeg.org/download.html.

    - For Windows:

      - Extract the archive to a folder.

      - Open the extracted folder and open to the `/bin` folder.

      - Copy the application `ffmpeg.exe` to your PixivUtil2 folder.

    - For Linux:

      - Install the package using your favorite package manager.



Q9. The downloaded images are corrupted, how to redownload it again?

    - You can delete the download history in databases by manually delete the image id

      from databases (enter d, followed by 10).

    - Or, you can set alwaysCheckFileSize = True and verifyimage = True in config.ini

      and retry the download.

      

Q10. I got this error またはメールアドレス、パスワードが正しいかチェックしてください。

    - Use your email address for the username, or check your password in config.ini



Q11. Older windows support (e.g. Win7)?

    - You can try to run from source code with the latest supported python 3.x.

      See the instruction here: https://github.com/Nandaka/PixivUtil2/wiki/IDE-Enviroment-(Windows)

    - Please modify _html.py from mechanize library, search for

      'def unescape_charref(data, encoding):' and replace with patch in

      https://pastebin.com/5bT5HFkb.



Q5. I got ' module no found error'

    - Download the library from the source (see links from the Requirements

      section) and copy the file into your Lib\site-packages directory.

    - Or use pip install (google on how to use).

```

## C.Log Messages

```

Q1: HTTPError: HTTP Error 404: Not Found

    - This is because the file doesn't exist in the pixiv server, usually

       because there is no big images version for the manga mode (currently the

       apps will try to download the big version first then try the normal size

       if failed, this is only for the manga mode and it is normal).



Q2: Error at process_image(): (, WindowsError

    (32, 'Prosessi ei voi kayttaa tiedostoa, koska se on toisen prosessin

    kaytossa')

    - The file is being used by another process (google translate). Either you

      ran multiple instace of Pixiv downloader from the same folder, or there

      are other processes locking the file/db.sqllite (usually from antivirus

      or some sync/backup application).



Q3: Error at process_image(): (,

    AttributeError ("'NoneType' object has no attribute 'find'",)

    - Usually this is because of failed login (cookie not valid). Try to change

      your password to simple one for testing, or copy the cookie from browser:

      1. Open Firefox/Chrome.

      2. Login to your Pixiv.

      3. On Pixiv page, press F12 and choose the Storage tab (Firefox), or

         Right click on the leftmost address bar/the (i) icon (Chrome)

      5. Click the View Cookies button.

      6. Look for Cookie named = PHPSESSID.

      7. Copy the content value.

      8. Open config.ini, go to [Authentication] section, paste the value to

         cookie.

    - Or because Pixiv has changed the layout code, so the Pixiv

      downloader cannot parse the page correctly. Please tell me by posting a

      comment if this happens and include the details, such as the member/image

      id, dump html, and log file (check on the application folder).



Q4: URLError: 

    - Update version to > pixivutil20221029.

    - This is because the Pixiv downloader cannot resolve the address to

      download the images, please try to restart the network connection or do

      ipconfig /flushdns to refresh the dns cache (windows).



Q5: Error at download_image(): (, timeout('timed out',)

    - This is because the Pixiv downloader didn't receive any reply for

      specified time in config.ini from Pixiv. Please retry the download again

      later.



Q6: httperror_seek_wrapper: HTTP Error 403: request disallowed by robots.txt

    - Set userobots = False in config.ini

```

  The filename is following `filename(Manga)Infoformat` + .txt.

  If you want the original info from source, use with `writeRawJSON`.

- writeRawJSON



  Set to `True` to export the original JSON untouched of the image for `writeImageJSON`.

- RawJSONFilter



  Enter the JSON keys which you want to filter out for `writeRawJSON`. Keys are seperated by a comma.

- includeSeriesJSON



  Set to `True` to export the series information to JSON. Non-series artwork doesn't have this info.

  The filename is following `filenameSeriesJSON` + .json.

- writeImageXMP



  Set to `True` to export the image information to a .XMP sidecar file, this does not add XMP metadata to the image header.

- writeImageXMPPerImage



  Set to `True` to export the image information to a .XMP sidecar file, one per image in the album. The data contained within the file is the same but some software requires matching file names to detect the metadata. If set to `True`, then `writeImageXMP` is ignored.

  Additionally, enabling this option will create a .XMP sidecar for every ugoira encoding enabled, and allow you to customise the name of each file using `%image_ext%`. For example, if you enable `createWebp` and `createGif`, then set your `filenameInfoFormat` to something like `%urlFilename%.%image_ext%`, then you will end up with `.gif.xmp` and `.webp.xmp` files created.

- verifyimage



  Check if downloaded files are valid image or zip. Set the value to `True` to enable.

- writeUrlInDescription



  Write all url found in the image description to a text file at the root directory. Set to `True` to enable. The list will be saved to to the application folder as url_list_.txt

- stripHTMLTagsFromCaption



  Remove all HTML tags and their contents from the image caption/description when writing metadata to files. The contents of any links will be lost, so consider enabling writeUrlInDescription to retain them.

- urlBlacklistRegex

  

  Used to filter out the url in the description using regular expression.

- dbPath



  Use different database.

- setLastModified



  Set last modified timestamp based on pixiv upload timestamp to the file.

- useLocalTimezone



  Use local timezone in the .txt file of `writeimageinfo` and .XMP file of `writeImageXMP`.

- defaultSketchOption



  Skip the "Include Pixiv Sketch" prompt when downloading by `member_id` option by using a default option. Set the value to `y` to always include sketches or `n` to exclude sketches from the download.



## [DownloadControl]

  If the last-modified timestamp of the local files is the same with the uploaded date of the artwork, it'll log "match" and skip to process the current image_id.

  Require `setlastmodified = True` in config.ini to work properly

- alwaysCheckFileSize



  Actually, it'll always check the file size. But if `this` is false, if the `overwrite` is also false and this file is recorded in db, it'll skip to process the current image_id.

  This will override the image_id checking from db (always fetch the image page to check the remote size).

- useblacklisttitlesregex



  Make the title blacklist check interpret each sequence as a regular expression.

- dateDiff



  Process only new images within the given date difference.

  Set `0` to disable. Skip to next member id if in 'Download by Member', stop processing if in 'Download New Illust' mode.

# list.txt Format

- This file should be build in the following way, white space will be trimmed,

  see example:

```

member_id1 directory1

member_id2 directory2

  ...

#comment - lines starting with # will be ignored

```

- member_id = in number only

- directory = path to download-directory for member_id

  - %root%\directory will save directory in rootFolder specified in config.ini

    \directory will save the folder in the root of your PixivUtil-drive

  - C:\directory will save the folder in drive C: (change to any other

    drive as you wish)

  - .\directory will save the folder in same directory as PixivUtil2.exe

  - directory-path can end with \ or not



- Examples for list:

```

### START EXAMPLE LIST####

# this is a comment line, lines starting with # will be ignored

# here is the first member:

123456

# you can see, the line has only the member id

# usually I use it the following way:

#

# username (so I can recognize it ;) )

123456

#

# next 2 lines contain a special folder for this member

123456 .\test

123456 ".\test"

# now all images from member no. 123456 will be safed in directory "test" in the

# same directory as PixivUtil2

# as you can see you can use it with "" or without ;)

#

# next will be stored at the same partition as PixivUtil, but the directory is

# located in root-part of it

123456 \test

123456 "\test"

# this will lead to "C:\test" when pixivUtil is located on "C:\"

#

# next line uses complete path to store the files

123456 F:\new Folder\test

123456 "F:\new Folder\test"

# this will set the folder everywhere on your partitions

#

123456 %root%\special folder

123456 "%root%\special folder"

# this will set the download location to "special folder" in your rootDirectory

# given in config

http://www.pixiv.net/member.php?id=123456

http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?id=123456

# also support url format.

### END EXAMPLE LIST####

```



# tags.txt Format

- This file will be used as source for Download from tags list (7)

- Separate tags with space, ensure to set Use Wildcard to 'y'.

- Each line will be treated as one search.

- Save the files with UTF-8 encoding.



# suppress_tags.txt Format

- This file is used for suppressing the tags from being used in %tags%.

- If matches, the tags will be removed from filename.

- Each line is one tag only.

- Save the files with UTF-8 encoding



# blacklist_tags.txt Format

- This file is used for tag blacklist checking for downloading image.

- If matches, the image will be skipped.

- Each line is one tag only.

- Save the files with UTF-8 encoding



# blacklist_members.txt Format

- similar to list.txt, but without custom folder.



# HTML Format

- A simple default format will be used when no 'template.html' is provided.

- Urls originally in the post will be overwritten with local paths.

- Currently available syntaxes are:

```

-> %coverImage%

   A 'div' tag with its 'class' set to 'cover', and a child 'img' tag with 

   the url to the cover image as its 'src' attribute.

-> %coverImageUrl%

   Simply the url to the cover image in clear text.

-> %artistName%

   Same as %artist% in 'Filename Format Syntax' in clear text.

-> %imageTitle%"

   Title of the post in clear text.

-> "%worksDate%"

   Published date of the post in clear text.

-> %body_text(article)%

   This works for article type posts only.

   A 'div' tag with its 'class' set to 'article', and the post's content,

   which is already formatted HTML if the post is article, as its inner text.

-> %images(non-article)%

   This works for none-article type posts only.

   A 'div' tag with its 'class' set to 'non-article images', and 'a' tags

   of all files in the post as its children tokens.

   For each 'a' tag, its 'href' would be url to the file, and the inner text

   would be an 'img' tag with its 'src' set to the url to the file if the

   file's extension is 'jpg', 'jpeg', 'png' or 'bmp'. Otherwise the inner text

   would simply be the url to the file.

-> %text(non-article)%

   This works for none-article type posts only.

   A 'div' tag with its 'class' set to 'non-article text' and all paragraphs

   of text put in 'p' tags as its children tokens.

```

- If there is a 'div' tag with 'main' in its 'class' in the template, 'article' or 

  'non-article' would be appended to its 'class' depending on the type of the post.



# Bad chars

- Originally for removing single bad chars for use between different OSs.

- Now also supports strings and regular expressions.

- The value set in option `customBadChars` would be parsed from left to right.

- Currently available syntaxes are:

```

-> %replace(your_default_replace_with)%

   Use this syntax to define default value to replace with.

   If this syntax gets used multiple times in the option value, the first value would be used.

   If this value is not set, "_" would be used.

-> %pattern(your_pattern)%

-> %replace(your_replace_with)%

   Use these two syntaxes to set groups of rules. Supports regular expression.

   You should not use "default" as group names, otherwise the first replace would

   be parsed as default value to replace with, while the others would be ignored.

   Groups with no "pattern" would be ignored.

   Groups with no "replace" use default value.

   If multiple "pattern"s or "replace"s share the same group name, the last value set

   would be used.

```

- Chars/string not wrapped with syntaxes above would be considered single chars

  to be replaced with global replacement char/string, "_" if unset.

- When configuration file gets written to file, `customBadChars` would be

  replaced with parsed valid value. Single chars would be placed first, followed by

  `%replace(your_default_replace_with)%`, and each group.

- Examples:

```

# If you just want to replace some single chars with "_"

\@[]

# If you want to replace them with "@":

\@[]%replace(@)%

# If you want to replace certain words:

# This example would first replace all "maze" with "labyrinth",

# then all "labyrinth" with "nevermind"

%pattern<1>(maze)%%replace<1>(labyrinth)%%pattern<2>(labyrinth)%%replace<2>(nevermind)%

# If you want to replace characters within certain unicode range,

# then remove all continuous "_"s with a single "_":

%pattern([\U0001d400-\U0001ffff])%%pattern<1>(_+)%%replace<1>(_)%

```



# Development

PixivUtil2 posesses robust test suite. To run it, one needs pytest suite:

```

pip install --user pytest



pytest -v ./test_*

```
