getenmagen 0.2.3

A library to quickly get or download images from the internet.

GETENMAGEN — Advanced Image Downloader & Viewer

An efficient, flexible, and robust open-source library designed to automate image downloading using Bing scraping capabilities with full configuration control.

📌 Introduction

Hello! Thank you for using getenmagen. This library was developed to provide an intuitive and powerful way to build image datasets or feed visual interfaces directly from the terminal.

⚠️ Author Responsibility: This library was created for automation and educational purposes. The author is not responsible for any malicious use or scraping violations.

🛠️ Documentation & Architecture

The library is built around an Object-Oriented design, featuring two main classes: Downloader (which handles execution) and Defaults (which handles global configuration states).

1. Initialization & Custom Directory

By default, the library saves downloaded assets in your module's local directory. You can instantiate the downloader and define a custom root storage folder:

from getenmagen.core import Downloader

# Instantiates the downloader with a custom storage path
downloader = Downloader(default_save_dir="my_custom_folder")

2. Executing Downloads (The download Method)

The core execution method is .download(). It accepts four parameters:

• query (str): The search term or keyword for the images (Required).
• save_dir (str, optional): Overrides the instance default storage folder for this specific execution.
• qt (int, optional): Number of images to fetch. Bound between 1 and 16.
• cooldown (float, optional): Seconds to pause between image display popups.

Example Usage:

downloader.download(query="cyberpunk triangle", qt=5, cooldown=1.5)

3. Runtime Mutability & Global Configurations

The Defaults class allows you to dynamically mutate configuration states globally without modifying your core execution scripts.

Example Usage:

from getenmagen.defaults import Defaults
from getenmagen.core import Downloader

# Initialize global configuration
config = Defaults()
config.set_default("min_qt", 8) # Mutates the state dynamically

# Pass the mutability object to the downloader
downloader = Downloader(defaults_obj=config)

🚨 Error Handling

getenmagen comes equipped with explicit, strictly typed custom exceptions to help you build safer scripts:

DownloadImageError: Raised when network connections fail or the search query yields 0 results.

ShowImageError: Raised when the Operating System image viewer cannot be initialized or fails to open.

InvalidImageError: Raised if corrupted or broken file formats are intercepted during execution.
