The RE-tries option now specifies exactly that: the maximum number a
failed HTTP request is re-tried. For example a value of 2 will now
correctly stop after 3 attempts: the initial one + 2 re-tries.
The maximum wait-time now also caps at 30min and increases exponentially
for both extractor.request() and downloader.http.download().
- use API
- remove login support, add 'api-key' option
- remove support for "alpha" subdomain - alpha.wallhaven.cc used numeric
IDs that can't be translated to the new ID system
- support direct links to wallpapers
- simplify pagination
- add more metadata and slightly change its structure
- convert suitable values to int or list
- move keys from ["photo"] to the base level
- proper video support (#246)
- rename method and variable names to better fit with other extractors
... via HTTP Basic Auth with username and "password".
The password value in this case is not the account password itself,
but the"api_key" found in your user profile.
Enabling this option will detect videos in tweets and output them as
"unsupported" URLs, so that these can then be downloaded with youtube-dl
There are a lot of improvements to be made to the current
implementation, but it works and does what it is supposed to, even if
inefficient as can be ...
All API requests now always use a public token and only switch to
a private token for pagination results if `refresh-token` is set
and less deviations than requested were returned.
- gallery-dl.conf contains all config options set to their default
values, with the exception of 'filename', 'directory', and
'cache.file'
- gallery-dl-example.conf contains a potential real-world configuration
file and demonstrates some more involved options
Gelbooru's API allows access to all images and is not restricted
to the first 20000.
This also adds an option to select between API use and manual
information extraction in case their API gets disabled again.
Some user galleries [*] require you to be either logged in or
authenticated via OAuth2 to access their deviations.

--------------
known issue:
A deviantart 'refresh_token' can only be used once and gets updated
whenever it is used to request a new 'access_token', so storing its
initial value in a config file and reusing it again and again is not
possible.
