imageurlscraper 1.0.0

Image Scraper for Google Drive, Imgur, AsiaChan, and more.

ImageURlScraper

ImageURLScraper is a multi-site image scraper. It automatically detects which site the image is coming from and scrapes it. Only relevant images are scraped from the site and shortened links are automatically unshortened. In the case that you have many links that need to be processed, these links can be distinguished by IDs when requesting the image links.

Currently Supported Sites:
Asiachan - Checks all previous and next pages from it's current location.
Google Drive - Checks all folders and grabs the first 1000 images in each folder.
Imgur - Grabs all images in a gallery.

Sample Code

"""
This sample code links directly to the main function that automatically processes the links 
and returns back a dict with IDs and their image links. The original link will not be shown,
which is why IDs are useful.
IDs are REQUIRED input alongside their links, although they are only for classifying links.
Links can have several IDs if necessary to group them together.

    # This ID is helpful for distinguishing certain objects or people.
