[Deviantart] How can I download as of the last page

Open joselpg opened this issue 7 years ago • 3 comments

The issue is this: I donwloaded a centain number de pictures, 9000 aprox. And then appeared a 404 error. This took me several hours. And I don´t want to start again from the beginning. There is one way to continue from the former point? I tried using this nomeclature: http://xxxxx.deviantart.com/favourites/?offset=48 (example) insted of the normal link: http://xxxxx.deviantart.com/favourites. But even so starts from the beginning.

In the past I used DeviantART Favorites Downloader, and had the usefull option of select a range of pages. I think this would be a great new tool.

Do you know other solutions?

Just keep 'Overwrite existing files' disabled, use 2 threads and a minimum of 12000-milliseconds timeout and you'll pick up from you left off sooner than it took you to download them in the first place. 9000 items is, to put it lightly, a lot, since it's 375 pages at 24 items a page.

One of the devs might be able to tell something better, if you wanna wait for their word.

Yes, re-rip should get you what you want, you'll just need to leave it a while. I'll keep this scenario in mind as I work on upgrading the re-rip functionality.

@rautamiekka I going to use that configuration the next time. Thanks

@metaprime Yes, It would be an excellent idea. At least to add a option for choose a page as a starting point. Because in my case it took me several hours only to arrive to the last point, and with the concern of other error.
