lunafind 0.5.5

Search, filter, inspect, download posts from Danbooru and local folders.

lunafind

Search, filter, inspect, download posts from Danbooru/Safebooru and find them back from the command line without setting up any service or database.

Suitable for daily terminal usage, usable for scripts and as a library for Python 3.6+.

See also lunasync to automatically download and keep in sync particular tags using lunafind, similar to Danbooru tag subscriptions or saved searches.

Features

• Operate on tag searches, URLs or file paths
• Combine results from multiple searches
• Specify custom page ranges, or just get everything
• Filter and order booru results to work around the two tags search limit
• Optional partial/fuzzy tag matching for filter and local searches
• Search downloaded posts by tags as if they were on a booru, without the hassle of setting up one
• Instant results from local searches in most cases after indexing
• Fast multithreaded downloads; 8 downloads in parallel by default
• Supports operating on post media (image, ugoira WebM, etc), info, notes, artist commentaries:
  • Getting the URLs or file/folder paths
  • Printing on standard output
  • Downloading

Local searches performance

The first time a local post search is done, an index file to speed up future searches will be automatically created and updated when new post directories exist or are removed.

Test with ~165 000 posts
AMD FX-8300 (8 cores, 3.3GHz), TOSHIBA DT01ACA2 7200 RPM HDD, BTRFS file system, Void Linux 4.18.14 x86_64:

• It takes about 2m30s - 3m to index everything from scratch
• After this, search results start coming instantly unless --random or --order is used.
• Searches finish completely in 8-20s

Test with ~60 000 posts

Command line usage

Downloading to the current folder every post tagged blonde and 2girls (default booru is https://danbooru.donmai.us):

    lunafind "blonde 2girls" --limit 200 --pages all --download .

Searching through the posts we just downloaded, printing image paths for the results:

    lunafind "blonde blue_eyes rating:s score:>5" --source . --show-location media

See lunafind --help for all options and examples.

Python usage

No real documentation yet. Three main classes are provided:

• Post: represents a local or remote single post, with its info, media, notes and artcom (artist commentary).

• Album: works like a dictionary of Post, where keys are the post IDs. Has magic methods and operators to facilitate working with them. Can be filtered, ordered, downloaded, and more.

• Stream: an efficiant lazy iterator yielding posts. Can be filtered and multithread-downloaded.

Reproducing the command line examples in the section above:

    from lunafind import Stream

    Stream("blonde 2girls", limit=200, pages="all").download()

    for post in Stream("blonde blue_eyes rating:s score:>5", client="."):
        print(post.get_location("media"))

Installation

Requires Python 3.6+ and pip (for automatic easy install).
Tested on GNU/Linux and Windows 7, probably works on OSX and other POSIX systems.
As root:

    pip3 install -U lunafind
