Download images from DuckDuckGo

Project description

DuckDuckGoImages

Instalation

To install run the following:

pip install DuckDuckGoImages

Usage

import using the following:

import DuckDuckGoImages as ddg

and then you can search and download images from DuckDuckGo using:

ddg.download('kittens')

The above command will search for the query phrase kittens, and then will try to download the list of image urls into the current folder.

Each downloaded image will have a randomic UUIDv4 name.

Options

When downloading images you can pass download the next list of parameters to achieve different results:

  • folder: The path where the downloaded images are saved. Default is current directory.
  • max_urls: If set to a number, then only that amount of images will be downloaded. Note that the available images to download could be less than max_urls. Default None, so all search results will try to be downloaded.
  • thumbnails: If set to True, the image thumbnails will be downloaded instead of the actual image. This should avoid broken links, but it will also download a smaller image in most cases. Default None.
  • parallel: If set to true, then N jobs will be created to download the list of images faster, the number of jobs is the number of cpu procesors on the machine. Default False.
  • shuffle: If set to true, the list of images will be shuffled randomly before download. Default False.
  • remove_folder: If set to true, then the folder where the images will be downloaded is deleted before the download. Default False.
