DoRePy 0.1.1

A tool for downloading files with filenames matching user-specified regex patterns which are linked to on a user-provided URL

DoRePy - (Do)wnload (Re)gex (Py)thon

DoRePy (pronounced like doe-ray-pee) is your go-to script for automating the download of files from a webpage that match a specific regex pattern. Fed up with manually sifting through pages to download files? DoRePy has got your back!

Features

• Regex Pattern Matching: Use the power of regular expressions to target exactly the files you need.
• Retry Logic: Network hiccup? No problem. DoRePy retries failed downloads, respecting rate limits like a well-mannered netizen.

Getting Started
