# python-furaffinity [](https://travis-ci.org/dmptrluke/python-furaffinity)
A Python library for browsing, scraping and downloading content from Fur Affinity.
This project is still under heavy development, so don't expect it to be finished quite yet.
This requires **Python 3.5**. Your account must also be set to the **Beta** theme for this to work at all.
## How do I use this?
Proper documentation will be coming (eventually), but here is a short demonstration script
that should help you get the idea of what this library can do.
```python
""""
A demo script that searches FA for submissions tagged "cat" and "dancing",
loops over them, and saves them to folders sorted by artist
"""
import furaffinity
import time
COOKIES = {
"a": "YOUR A COOKIE FROM FA",
"b": "YOUR B COOKIE FROM FA"
}
session = furaffinity.FurAffinity(useragent="python-furaffinity")
session.login_cookies(COOKIES)
results = session.search_tags("cat", "dancing")
for result in results:
if not result.kind == "image":
continue
# get the FA submission
submission = session.get_submission(result)
# figure out where to save it
location = f"./output/" + submission.uploader + "/" + submission.file.filename
# save it, skip the download if the file already exists
# (we could use replace=True if we want it to replace existing files instead)
submission.file.download(location, skip=True)
# be nice! don't thrash the servers
time.sleep(1)
```
