Gallery dl won't detect my cache file or reddit refresh token
In my python code i specify a config file with the argument --config. it does seems to detect it however when i try to download a reddit album it ignore the refresh token in it. also i tried specifying the cache file and i get the same thing
this is my config file
{
"extractor": {
},
"downloader": {
},
"output": {
},
"postprocessor": {
},
"cache": {
"file": "../data/gallery-dl_cache.sqlite3"
}
}
my python code
@classmethod
def download_album(cls, url):
config_path = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__)), "..", "data", "gallery-dl_config.json")
images = []
success = True
try:
command = f'gallery-dl -g --config "{config_path}" {url}'
result = subprocess.run(command, shell=True, capture_output=True, text=True)
print(result.stdout)
print(result.stderr)
if "error" not in result.stderr.lower():
for image_url in result.stdout.splitlines():
extension = os.path.splitext(image_url)[1]
filename = f"content_{uuid.uuid4().hex}{extension}"
final_file_path = os.path.join(cls.TMP_PATH, filename)
command = f'gallery-dl --config "{config_path}" -o "{final_file_path}" "{image_url}"'
download_result = subprocess.run(command, shell=True, capture_output=True, text=True)
print(download_result.stdout)
print(download_result.stderr)
images.append(final_file_path)
else:
cls.logger.error(f"Errore durante il download dell'album: {result.stderr}")
success = False
except Exception as e:
cls.logger.error(f"Errore durante il download dell'album: {e}")
success = False
return success, images
My objective is to keep all the configurations in the project data folder so i can move it somewhere else.
"file": "../data/gallery-dl_cache.sqlite3"
Relative paths are relative to your working directory, not your script or config file. Maybe that's the problem.
While you are already using a config file, why not put your Reddit refresh token directly in there instead of relying on a cache file?

because i tried but it doesn't seems to detect it. i also tried using it outside python using the powershell and it doesn't detect it.

What makes you think that?
429 errors are unrelated to a refresh token, by the way. For those you need a custom client ID and user agent.

because when i try to download an album it gives me this output

and if you wonder if i tried putting the refresh token in the config yes i already tried. maybe you can show me an example on how it should placed correctly inside the json maybe i did somethings wrong.
{
"extractor":
{
"base-directory": "./gallery-dl/",
"reddit":
{
"other_options": "here",
"refresh-token": "<token here>"
}
}
}
{ "extractor": { "base-directory": "./gallery-dl/", "reddit": { "other_options": "here", "refresh-token": "<token here>" } } }
is it correct if this appear? [reddit][info] Refreshing private access token
@vraixen
I'm having the same problem as you with a nearly exact Python code. Were you able to fix the problem?
