imgur_id7

Fast tool to scan for valid 7-long imgur ids for the ArchiveTeam imgur efforts (not affiliated or endorsed)

Optionally uses supplied http proxies to scan many ids in parallel since imgur does have rate limiting.

Generates ids at random since there's too many ids to reasonably scan in order anyways.

Usage

Usage: imgur_id7 [OPTIONS]

Options:
  -r, --results-file <RESULTS_FILE>
          Where to save found results
  -p, --proxy-file <PROXY_FILE>

Building

Github Actions are set up to provide builds, but especially the linux ones might not run on your distro

Building is easy though!

Install rust
Install your platforms compiler toolchain (for debian-based distros this would be apt install build-essential, for windows this might be MSVC)
Clone this repo or download it as a .zip
Run cargo build --release* and grab the resulting binary from target/release/imgur_id7
Success!

*You might have to install library headers like libssl-dev and pkg-config, but the build process will complain accordingly
