/PhotoStreamPy

A Linux Python app to download all of your Facebook photos.

Primary LanguagePython

Notice:

Let the program run and DO NOT send the foreground process to the background or the program will not work correctly. Start the program and leave the computer alone until it finishes.

IMPORTANT:

Facebook no longer allows GET requests due to this program. I am the cause of not being able to download photos via wget as of 2020-07-20 - at least for the moment.

Install:

anthony@ghost:~$ sudo python setup.py install

Command line usage:

anthony@ghost:~$ python photostream.py -eexample@gmail.com -ppassword -ufbusername -O/home/anthony/Pictures/FB_Photos

A YouTube demo can be found here

To do:

Preserving the albums should be enabled by default while making the photostream feature(All photos in one place) a secondary option.
