Rapidshare premium download using python
I used to download from rapidshare using wget as descripted here.
Since Rapidshare changed there website this method stopped working, so I decided to write a simple python script using the rapidshare api to help me out.
There might be a few bugs but it generally serves its purpose.
#!/usr/bin/env python import urllib import os import sys args = sys.argv; username = 'your_username' passw = 'your_password' linkfile = '' link = '' download_dir = '' if '-h' in args or len(args) == 1: print 'Usage: ' + args[0] + ' options link || linkslist' print '\tOptions: ' print '\t-h help' print '\t-d download directory e.g. /home/user/downloads' print '\t-l linklist' exit() if '-d' in args: if args.index('-d') >= (len(args) - 1): exit('missing argument for -d') else: download_dir = args[args.index('-d') + 1] if '-l' in args: if args.index('-l') >= (len(args) - 1): exit('missing argument for -l') else: linkfile = args[args.index('-l') + 1] if '-l' not in args and len(args) > 1: link = args[len(args) - 1] if linkfile == '' and link == '': exit('No links given. You have to give either a list of links or a single link. type ' + args[0] + ' -h for more information') input = list() if linkfile != '': input = open(linkfile, 'r') else: input = [link] for line in input: if(line == ''): continue linkmap = line.split('/') fileid = linkmap[4] filename = linkmap[5].rstrip() f = urllib.urlopen('http://api.rapidshare.com/cgi-bin/rsapi.cgi?sub=checkfiles_v1&files=' + fileid + '&filenames=' + filename) serverid = f.read().split(',')[3] link = 'http://rs' + serverid + 'dt.rapidshare.com/cgi-bin/rsapi.cgi?sub=download_v1\&filename=' + filename + '\&login=' + username + '\&password=' + passw + '\&fileid=' + fileid os.system('wget -c -O ' + download_dir + filename + ' ' + link) |
The scripts requires wget to be installed.
