Add search results download functionality for Kemono.su posts

Open Copilot opened this issue 8 months ago • 0 comments

This PR implements the ability to download all posts from a search query on Kemono.su, addressing the user request to download content from search URLs like https://kemono.su/posts?q=mai+sakurajima.

New Features

🔍 Search Posts API

  • Added SearchPosts API class for querying posts by search term across all creators and services
  • Supports pagination with offset parameter for large result sets
  • Integrated with existing retry and error handling mechanisms

🌐 Search URL Parsing

  • New parse_search_url() function extracts search queries from Kemono.su search URLs
  • Handles URL encoding (both + and %20 for spaces)
  • Validates URL format and rejects non-search URLs

🖥️ CLI Commands

Two new CLI commands have been added:

  1. download_search - Downloads all posts matching a search query

    # Download from search URL (as requested in the issue)
    ktoolbox download_search --url "https://kemono.su/posts?q=mai+sakurajima"
    
    # Download from search query directly
    ktoolbox download_search --query "mai sakurajima"
    
  2. search_posts - Search for posts without downloading

    ktoolbox search_posts "mai sakurajima"
    

📁 Automatic Folder Organization

  • Creates folders named after the search term (e.g., "mai sakurajima")
  • Uses sanitize_filename() to ensure cross-platform compatibility
  • Maintains existing post structure within each search folder

⚙️ Additional Features

  • Pagination support: Automatically fetches all results across multiple pages
  • Download limits: Optional --limit parameter to control number of downloads
  • Path customization: Specify custom download directory with --path
  • Input validation: Comprehensive error handling for invalid URLs and missing parameters
  • Integration: Uses existing job system for reliable, concurrent downloads

Example Usage

The exact URL format from the issue now works:

ktoolbox download_search --url "https://kemono.su/posts?q=mai+sakurajima"

This creates a folder structure like:

current_directory/
└── mai sakurajima/
    ├── Post Title 1/
    │   ├── attachments/
    │   ├── content.txt
    │   └── post.json
    └── Post Title 2/
        ├── attachments/
        ├── content.txt
        └── post.json

Technical Implementation

  • Minimal changes: Reuses existing download infrastructure and patterns
  • Backward compatibility: All existing functionality preserved
  • Test coverage: Comprehensive tests for URL parsing and CLI commands
  • Error handling: Proper validation and user-friendly error messages

Fixes #253.
