[NOT WORKING ANYMORE]

I've tried to fix the issues arised by @hamensman that keeps downloading the first page, but later while debugging I found out that it looks like archive.org has disabled the "downloading-by-link-iteration" method, so there's no fix, and there will be no more from me.

archiveOrgImageDownloader

This is a modified and improved version of the harrcor's repository.
The script is most useful to be used on a protected book that needs to be borrowed, and that you can't download it by using the encrypted epub/pdf links. So, this script will download the image of the borrowed book one by one.

Requirements

• Operating system: Linux or Windows I used Linux to modify this script, so in order to use Windows, you will need to change this one line from
  driver = webdriver.Chrome("./chromedriver", options=chrome_options)
  to
  driver = webdriver.Chrome("./chromedriver.exe", options=chrome_options)
• Python 3.x
• Git

Dependencies

This script depends on these few libraries:

• selenium pip3 install selenium

• requests pip3 install requests

• Chrome WebDriver If you use Linux, then use the Linux version, same as Windows, use the Windows version.

Usage

Cloning the repository

You will need to clone the repostory by using the git clone command on Linux, or you can use GitHub Desktop application on Windows, or you can do whatever you want to clone it.

Running the script

Linux

On Linux, open your terminal and change to your current working directory.
Then, you will need to execute this command to run the script.
python3 scraper.py
Fill in the details in order to download your book.

Windows

On Windows, open your command prompt and change to your current working directory.
Then, you will need to execute this command to run the script.
python3 scraper.py
Fill in the details in order to download your book.

Example

Your archive.org email account: [email protected]

Your pages that will be downloaded: 488
Your quality of images, from 0-10 (lower is better): 0
