Configuration
=============

Configuration files for gallery-dl use a JSON-based file format.
For a (more or less) complete example, see gallery-dl.conf_.

*gallery-dl* searches for configuration files in the following paths:

* ``/etc/gallery-dl.conf``
* ``~/.config/gallery-dl/config.json``
* ``~/.gallery-dl.conf``

Values in later configuration files will override previous ones.


Authentication
==============

Some extractors require you to provide valid login-credentials.
This currently includes ``pixiv``, ``exhentai``, ``nijie`` and ``seiga``.

You can set the necessary information in your configuration file
(cf. gallery-dl.conf_)

.. code::

    {
        "extractor": {
            ...
            "pixiv:" {
                "username": "<username>",
                "password": "<password>"
            }
            ...
        }
    }

or you can provide them directly via the
:code:`-u/--username` and :code:`-p/--password` or via the
:code:`-o/--option` command-line options

.. code:: bash

    $ gallery-dl -u <username> -p <password> URL
    $ gallery-dl -o username=<username> -o password=<password> URL
