Glitter-Graphics Scraper

  • Download as many pictures as you like from glitter-graphics by selecting a category.
  • They are downloaded in full size with their original file extension.
  • You can also change the starting page as easily.
  • I made this scraper for fun and to learn. If there are any issues you can report them.

Important

  • Selecting a category only works with keypad arrows. This is due to the package used for it.
  • It also won't work in in-built pycharm terminal.
  • Don't lower the time.sleep() counter as it can overload the site server by creating requests too fast and you could potentially get banned.

Requirements

  • You need to have Python 3.7 or higher.

Setup & Use

  • Clone the repo.
  • Install all necessary dependencies with this command
   pip install beautifulsoup4 requests inquirer
  • To run the scraper open the terminal in the directory and enter 'python scraper.py'

Starting from a different page

  • If you would like to change the starting page change line 12 of scraper.py
  • Running the scraper more than once with different starting pages can result in images being overwritten.
