For example, instead of 'url-metadata' it is now also possible to use
'metadata-url' as option name.
- metadata-url
- metadata-path
- metadata-http
- metadata-version
- metadata-parent
Using "parent-category>child-category" as extractor category in a config
file allows to set options for a child extractor when it was spawned by
that parent.
For example "reddit>gfycat" to set gfycat options for when it was found
in a reddit post.
{
"extractor": {
"gfycat": {
"filename": "regular filename"
},
"reddit>gfycat": {
"filename": "reddit-specific filename"
}
}
}
Note: This does currently not work for most imgur links due to how its
extractor hierarchy is structured.
Introduce an 'initialize()' function that does the actual init
(session, cookies, config options) and can called separately from
the constructor __init__().
This allows, for example, to adjust config access inside a Job
before most of it already happened when calling 'extractor.find()'.
Allow writing cookies to a different file than a given cookies.txt,
making it possible to export cookies imported with --cookies-from-browser
To convert browser cookies to cookies.txt format:
gallery-dl --cookies-fr chromium \
-o cookies-update=cookies.txt \
--no-download \
http://example.org/file.jpg
Previously it was necessary to set 'browser' to a non-empty, non-string
value to disable any default 'browser' value.
Now '-o browser=' or '-o browser=false' is enough.
(in memory, for as long as gallery-dl is running)
Extracting encrypted cookies from a chromium-based browser can take a
long time, so repeating this process for each extractor should be
avoided.
Same goes for creating a temporary copy of the entire cookie database.
- rename
- load_cookiestxt -> cookiestxt_load
- save_cookiestxt -< cookiestxt_store
- in cookiestxt_load, add cookies directly to a cookie jar
instead of storing them in a list first
- other unnoticeable performance increases
- allow gallery-dl proxy settings to overwrite environment proxies
- allow specifying different proxies for data extraction and download
- add 'downloader.proxy' option
- '-o extractor.proxy=–PROXY_URL -o downloader.proxy=null'
now has the same effect as youtube-dl's '--geo-verification-proxy'
