I downloaded the newest version of Python as I assumed I would need that, got my User Agent where I was shown and got my access token, All fairly easy things I had assumed, but then I get to actually using it and I can't figure it out at all. I know it might be a stupid question but I find the instructions to be completely unclear, and I'm asking you since you made what appears to be a fork that is just overall better (IE supports messages and archived) but I can't actually figure out "what" I need to do to be able to use this. Sorry if I'm being a bother, I'm new to basically all of this. Let me know if you have any questions or issues. Sub-folders are currently enabled by default. You can choose which you want to download by finding the block of "DOWNLOADING_/photos. You can now choose to download posts, archived posts, stories, highlights, messages, and paid content. Turns out I ended up getting bored and doing this. But my messages weren't downloading at 100, so I decided to try 10 like that guy had done, and it ended up working for me. My paid content was downloading fine at 100, not sure why he needed his at 10. I inadvertently ended up finding that option of setting it to 10 from this commit in another fork 50f4285. Give all a default of 100 with notes on what to change in-case anyone gets an error like I was getting. I may move those limits up to the configuration area to make them more visible to people. 100 ended up working for all of them other than messages for me.
That then lead to me switching things over to using the variables they now use, as I was unsure if it'd be different limits depending on the content type. Other than that it works perfectly! And I find the variable to flatten the directory structure via the USE_SUB_FOLDERS variable very handy :-)Īnd that's strange, for me MESSAGE_LIMIT 100 didn't work and threw errors, but a limit of 10 worked fine. In my case it resulted in one media not being initially downloaded (fixed by setting MESSAGE_LIMIT = "100". That limit is set to 100 for all other categories. Just one question:Īny reason why you are setting MESSAGE_LIMIT = "10" ? Thanks, this seems to generally work for me.
