[Request] Downloading pages based on a list.

Open ILoveAmphetamines opened this issue 6 years ago • 5 comments

The idea would be that I would have a list of webpages that I would download. For example, list.text:

https://example.com/page1.html https://example.com/page2.html https://example.com/page3.html

This could be issued as a command such as monolith -L .\dir\to\list.txt > .\dir\*.html

Greetings @XXXTentacion, This seems like a nifty feature, and I believe wget supports that, hence it's only logical to eventually add this to monolith. Currently bug-fixes and implementing features which were requested right after the initial release have higher priority on the list. Until the requested feature is in master, I believe you could loop through text files in powershell or bash and execute monolith once for every line, perhaps using some analog of basename() to automatically name the output for every URL.

I'm glad you like it. Please feel free to report any bugs you find, post URLs that aren't being saved properly, and submit more feature requests -- that's all very valuable to make this tool better.
