# vk_album_downloader
Python script to download list of albums (including albums from private communities) from [vk.com](https://www.vk.com). Implemented with VK API
## Installation ##
In order to use this script you need to install [Python 3](https://www.python.org/downloads/).
You also need additional **vk_api** module. Write next command to your command line / terminal after you have installed Python 3
`$ pip install vk_api`
## Usage ##
This script allows you to download:
* Albums from user's profile
* Albums from communities, including private communities
**NOTE:** script yet can not download any special albums such as 'Saved images', 'Profile images', 'Images from wall'
You have to create following files to gather input information:
* *data.txt*. (Because of the *vk.com* privacy policy script needs to perform authentication before interacting with VK API. So put your login / phone number and password into this file)
* *albums_list.txt* (Just put list of url to the albums that you want do download)
Script will automatically create directory **vk_downloaded_albums** to save albums to in the directory where the script is located
**NOTE:** all the file / directory names and paths can be modified in the script. There is also no need to put them in the directory with the script
## Examples of the input files ##
### data.txt ###
File with user data:
```
[email protected]
super_strong_password
```
### albums_list.txt ###
File with list of album URLs:
```
https://vk.com/album-23402051_225962711
