Bash script for downloading images posted in specific subreddit with minimal footprint

Simple Subreddit Image Downloader

Tired of all of those reddit downloaders which want you to install tons of dependencies and then don't work anyway? Me too.

Simple Subreddit Image Downloader is bash script which:

  • downloads ALL images from specified subreddit in full size
  • Linux/MacOS/Windows
  • Parallel download

This script just downloads all directly linked images in subreddit. It can also download with a specific sort. For more complex usage, use other reddit image downloader.

Requirements

  • bash (cygwin is OK)
  • wget
  • jq

Usage

./download-subreddit-images.sh <subreddit_name>
./download-subreddit-images.sh <subreddit_name> <hot|new|rising|top>
./download-subreddit-images.sh <subreddit_name> top <all|year|month|week|day>

Script downloads images to <subreddit_name> folder in current directory. If you want to change that, you need to edit destination in rdit.sh for now.
