picasa_fetcher 0.2

Fetch images from Picasa

This script allows you to download images from Picasa and optionally delete them.

Usage:

$ picasa_fetcher --username=<username> --password=<password> images/

This will download all images for the given user into the images/ folder (which you must create).

This will leave images on the server. To delete images older than N days, do:

$ picasa_fetcher --username=<username> --password=<password> --delete 1 images/

By default, the script will stop as soon as it finds an image with a timestamp it has seen before (it fetches images in reverse date order). To keep going, potentially overriding local files, use the --force parameter.

To limit the number of downloads, use the --limit parameter.

To get more usage information:

$ picasa_fetcher --help
