Download an entire imgur album simply.
I had a significant amount of annoyance when I was unable to download imgur albums the way I wanted to. So I decided to create a utility that allows me to download imgur albums easily.
The way that I download the photos is a little interesting. I pipe the response from the request module into the fs module and write that to the directory.
function download(link, filename, dir) {
request(link).pipe(fs.createWriteStream(dir + "/" + filename));
}First grab the repository or npm package.
git clone https://github.com/nicolsek/Album-Pull
Then install the requirement for node.
npm install
Album Pull is now ready to use!
The structure to download an album looks like this.
node ./ <imgur_link> <optional_custom_path>
