This is a command line tool for downloading posts that match certain tags on e621 or e926.

It's [this](https://github.com/tjhorner/e6dl) ported to Rust, which was actually originally [ported from JS](https://github.com/tjhorner/e621-id-downloader). I am not Good At The Rust™️ yet, so I am using this project to get Good At The Rust™️. (i.e., the code is probably bad and not idiomatic). If you see areas I could improve, just let me know using an issue.

## Installation

```shell
$ cargo install e6dl
```

## Usage

```
USAGE:
e6dl [FLAGS] [OPTIONS]

FLAGS:
-h, --help
Prints help information

-s, --sfw
Download posts from e926 instead of e621

-V, --version
Prints version information

OPTIONS:
-c, --concurrency
Maximum number of concurrent downloads [default: 5]

-g, --group ...
Save downloaded posts grouped by the specified grouping. You can specify multiple groupings. See:
https://github.com/tjhorner/e6dl-rs/wiki/Post-Grouping
-l, --limit
The maximum number of posts that should be retrieved per page. There is a hard limit of 320 [default: 10]

-o, --out
The directory to write the downloaded posts to [default: ./out]

--page
The page that will be retrieved. Can also be used with "a" or "b" + `post_id` to get the posts after or
before the specified post ID. For example, "a13" gets every post after post_id 13 up to the limit. This
overrides any ordering meta-tag; `order:id_desc` is always used instead.

If used with the `pages` option, only numeric page values are allowed. [default: 1]
-p, --pages
The maximum number of pages to download.

Can be used in conjunction with the `page` option to start search at a specific page. [default: 1]

ARGS:

The tags to search for, space-separated. See: https://e621.net/help/cheatsheet
