README.md

This is a tool for scraping files from imageboards' threads.

It extracts the files from a JSON version of a thread. And then downloads 'em in a specified output directory or if it isn't specified then creates following directory hierarchy in a working directory:

<imageboard name>
|-<board name>
  |-<thread>
    |-[!op.txt]
    |-...
  |-...

Usage

scrapthechan [OPTIONS] (<url> | <imageboard> <board> <thread>)

<url> -- URL of a thread.

<imageboard> <board> <thread> -- imageboard name, board name and thread ID separately. E.g. 4chan b 1100500.

-o, --output-dir -- output directory where all files will be dumped to.

--no-op -- by default OP's post will be saved in a !op.txt file. This flag disables this behaviour. I desided to put an ! in a name so this file will be on the top in a directory listing.

-v, --version prints the version of the program, and -h, --help prints help for a program.
