Python script to download from Fakku!

To(sort of) answer your question/request for a native program of this script.
A native program such a .exe(Windows) will not work on Linux or Mac, and vice versa. On the other hand python scripts should work for any platform(provided python is installed). This makes it much easier on us developers, we don't need to worry about the script working on other peoples computers as much.

If you want to use this script but you don't have python - see the second post on the first page of the topic(it's long so I won't quote it)
If you want a GUI(what most users expect to see when they run a program) you can use the -g flag(so run the script as "fakku.py -g" or create a batch script with the same command in it - if you renamed the script, change fakku.py to what you renamed it as) The GUI element should work with the grabber and the downloader, but since I don't use windows I cannot guarantee that grabber's GUI will work.

Or you can use waterflame's program/website to download a doujinshi from fakku. It should also accomplish what you're trying to do. Quoting his current signature,


Well, if you ever write a native executable fell free to post it.
(and include a Linux one for me :P )

I looked in to using "fk.py -g" in one of my windows VM's and it doesn't seem to work.. It just sits there so unless I did something wrong then it doesn't work on windows 7.(I was using version 3.4.1)



Technically you could use WINE(Wine is not emulation :3) or Mono which is used to try to bring .net to linux(and I think mac?)

I followed the post sciwhiz made on installing python and -g worked in my windows 7 VM(as well as linux). I'm guessing that there were no problems importing tkinter(the module that makes the gui) if it did't spit out any errors. So I'm not sure what to do, but if you're willing to help debug(to fix the problem for any one else)

Look for a line that looks like:


That's the class that controls the gui. If you could identify the line causing the problem and tell me where it is, or even fix it, I would appreciate it.



That's true, but I don't want to explain to mac users how to install it(*nix users are smart enough to figure it out, or will look it up ;) And I'm not sure if wine supports all of .net's features.

Last time I tried to run a .net program in WINE it told me to use mono

EDIT:I'll look in to the GUI problem when I get a chance. Thanks for giving me a point in the right direction should save me some time~

Hey, the naming of the files doesn't work anymore, it is just always 'Artist - Title - Series' i just wanted to have [Artist] and (series) like that, but changing it in the fakku.py does nothing..

The problem seems to lie with line 87:


change it to:


and title format should work again. Or you can use my version.



On a side note(to anyone who's interested), I'm currently trying to merge the link grabber and downloader scripts (as well as clean up the code, implement the api, and some other stuff...)

Try it now. I (think) I fixed it.

Still isn't working :o unless I downloaded it from the wrong spot o-o

No it was my fault, I put the line that should fix the error in the wrong spot. This time (I'm almost sure) it is fixed.

Yep, g2g now. Thanks so much :]

You fixed it in production so your fine :P

Hey, is there any way to get doujin with weird characters to work? e.g. https://www.fakku.net/doujinshi/to-ki-me-ki-tonight-english

Well the solution is not elegant, and the output in the console will not be pretty either, but it will work and the name of the directory and zip file will have the correct output. On a side note I would recommend switching to Linux. Well it's fixed. Click me.

thanks so much, I wish I knew how to code.. apparently not enough to learn it thou.. lol

It's fine, if you find any more problems with the script I'll do my best to fix them.

I have another one for you https://www.fakku.net/doujinshi/shinkaiseikan-collection-kouwan-ritou-english >>"

I cant seem to reproduce the error. Would you mind pasting the output of the script when you try download that doujinshi?

Ok, should be fixed now(another bad workaround).
