Downloads images and files from Patreon feeds

Image from store Patreon Downloader
Description from store Due to the reactive nature of the Patreon front end, the only way to download slideshow images is to simulate a user interacting with the site. Please don't complain that you don't want to sit through slideshows, it's the only way I can get all the urls. . The reason images are downloaded at the end of the process is that network errors or timeouts will break the scraping, so trying to download a large file while scraping is a bad idea. I highly suggest filtering the feed by month or selecting single posts for feeds with a lot of images or files. You will need a fairly fast connection as network errors will stop the scraping. The extension will take control of the website and attempt to find all images and files. It then sends the urls to be downloaded sequentially. To use simply load the page you want to archive, you can stop the page loading once the dom has loaded if you don't want to wait for all the images to download. Then press download. Images will be downloaded to downloads/Patreon_Downloader/ in the given folder and in subfolders named after the post titles. WARNING: If you haven't set up a default download directory, you will have to manually choose the save location for each image, which might open a lot of popup windows. It is not recommended to attempt to download too many images at once without a default download directory. If you have a network error while scraping a slideshow, you can right click on the image missing icon and select "load image". The scraper will continue. CHANGELOG: 0.1.4 Better text searching, remove buy me a coffee link 0.1.3 Return to manual folder setting 0.1.1 Ability to disable popup Post text without files can be saved 0.1.0 Major redesign Attempts to save with folders as creator name and date of the post 0.0.8 Scraping slideshows optional Files are not overriden when downloading 0.0.6 File links downloaded as well as images Main subfolder named after the creator Post subfolder named after the post date and not the sequence 0.0.5 Add option to save all text from post Add option to not confirm before downloading Stop scraper attempting to open locked posts 0.0.4 Removed special characters from subfolder name

  • (2023-11-20) akastyr: Edit: 20/11/2023 extension is working properly with the full features, but in my opinion, disable auto update if extension works for you, in case the dev decides to push again on the users a non working beta testing version. Allow updates only when it will stop working dev releases update who make extension unusable for most users, removing functionalities. Instead of restoring old working version, while resolving problems with the new, leaves the broken extension. I am a dev myself but even for freeuse software there needs to be standard
  • (2023-11-17) E G: works amazing.
  • (2023-11-13) 古い鉄: Ver0.1.1にしてから個別投稿のDLで動作しなくなったんで微妙 旧Verのほうがまだ使い勝手が良かった
  • (2023-11-09) Dave Thomas: Doesn't work since latest release - option to set download folder name seems to be the issue, no longer editable.
  • (2023-11-05) J. Lisk: The extension simply does not work.
  • (2023-11-05) 张sir: it cant work when download from one post but it works when download from monthly page because it cant create folder name
  • (2023-11-05) Isabella Mellonie (C1b3r3y3): Used to work amazingly good, but in the last update (v.0.1.0) it doesn't work at all. The images are not downloading and can't do simple things like rename de download folder, weird cuz in the previous version I could.
  • (2023-11-04) 성석봉: The image is read but cannot be downloaded. Please roll back to the previous version.
  • (2023-10-31) Demons Riot: No longer works. Only downloads previewed images and does not scrape any extra post images.
  • (2023-09-08) Michael A.: Works fine for my needs, thanks!
  • (2023-08-31) Timi 7272: When a post has more than 1 picture in it, it only downloads the first picture and not the rest. That is pointless.
  • (2023-08-11) 純正愛好者: if you want the Patreon Downloader Download high resolution version just turn on scrape slideshows
  • (2023-07-08) Francesco Arsiè: Works like a wonder
  • (2023-07-01) v w: You use it to scan a post with 1 file and it says "0 files found" so in other words this doesn't do anything.
  • (2023-07-01) Maxwell Wright: This extension worked pretty well for me, did exactly what I wanted it to do. Sorry that others may have had issues, but definitely give this one a try if you need to mass-rip a Patreon page.
  • (2023-06-30) Alex: - It can download only a single month. - Not downloading high resolution version, only low resolution. - No filter to avoid GIFs. - Slow.
  • (2023-06-27) Josh: This extension does in fact work. I did take away a star because it is not the most user friendly for first-timers, which would explain why so many others have been having issues.
  • (2023-06-24) Nick Calder: Used to be good. Now only gets the top level posts. Pointless...
  • (2023-05-11) Bati Rashed: patreon says "Please use a single creator filtered by a month or a single post" and then the extension doesnt do anything after it says that, a url patreon downloader wouldve been a better idea
  • (2023-04-16) AndyRatchick: Simply doesn't work - and despite the patronising and condescending comment from certain other commenters, that has nothing to do with not refreshing after installation. It just doesn't find any files to download, of any kind, even when they're present, neither in single posts nor a list of posts by single creator and single month. On the other hand, there IS another extension with the same name but a different icon that works just fine. It might not allow bulk downloads, but at least it works, which is more than can be said for THIS extension (despite a couple of hours of troubleshooting, involving removing any and all other extensions, creating new user profiles within the browser, and trying it on both Chrome and Windows' rebadged version of the browser). Such a shame.
  • (2023-03-26) Aria Ravenlock: This was better when I could scrape individual posts; I don't like having to scrape by the month, because I generally scrape every time there's a new post. Please bring back the option to scrape individual posts.
  • (2023-03-25) Zhenghan Chen: Hats off to the creator, glad to see it updated, but the new version has a small problem: when it grabs all files with covers (whether it's cover + multi-image, or cover + video), the cover can't Get original quality. This doesn't happen in older versions, which capture both small format and original quality. Hope it gets fixed soon!
  • (2023-03-08) s: Doesn't work whatsoever, waste of time.
  • (2023-02-22) Allen Paullaul: Fake
  • (2022-11-07) littlearpeggio paopeak: It's Work Thanks.
  • (2022-10-15) Ricardo Calderon: where are my downloads
  • (2022-10-10) Marina Scherer: It works
  • (2022-09-15) steamerthesteamtrain: Not For Getting Locked Images!
  • (2022-09-05) Alessia RockRose: It downloads the images, but not the videos. This is what I needed, so this extension isn't useful for me
  • (2022-08-27) Trever Hickey: Mostly works. Its great for downloading Large specific groupings or month size posts some downsides I have seen to it are: - It doesn't attempt to "load more". This needs to be done before the download. - It randomly fails with no explanation, then doesn't continue. It would be nice to know why this is happening, but it also doesn't allow skips, so if you find something like this you may be out of luck since you can't get the grouping you want.
  • (2022-08-21) Shard47: I think it works? I cant find where it downloaded the pics to though...
  • (2022-07-09) Joshua Hardie: Doesn't scrape videos in current patreon player.
  • (2022-06-14) João Harrington Sena (PegasusRanger): Sadly does not download videos, only thumbnails.
  • (2022-04-22) satrio w: says 0 images found after scraping was done
  • (2022-03-04) Dan Kim: Works great! Definitely does the job better than any other solution I've tried. There are a couple of small issues like not being able to set the default download location and the subfolder feature not working, but other than these small things, it does the job and downloads all the full resolution images automatically. Took off one star for these small issues, but overall, pretty happy about this extension.
  • (2022-03-03) Alex Wang: Make sure to REFRESH the page you are trying to download when you first install this plugin. Pros -Relies on your current browser window, therefore you can select to view patron only content THEN click download. -Neat interface -Free and Open Source Cons -review page filled with people probably not refreshing the page before leaving bad reviews Thank you for your contribution!
  • (2022-01-22) 何詺浩: I was hoping that it would automatically download the zip and original named large image, but that didn't meet my expectations.
  • (2022-01-19) Arden Beckwith: Thank god for this.
  • (2021-10-06) Billy Pateman: Does as expected, just wondering, is there a way to finish the downloader early whilst scanning? Without cancelling it?
  • (2021-09-28) yeetz44: Hot Garbage m8.
  • (2021-09-05) Ирина: it works, thanks!
  • (2021-08-16) Paul Lee: 一个中文评论都没有,啃生肉摸索了半天,终于琢磨明白怎么用了…… 切到posts页面,点开插件,顺利的话第二排会显示ready,subfolder那一栏填你这次想创建的子文件夹名字(比如作者A-月份)点击Download,然后它会开始自动一个个下拉,秒开图片保存,这个阶段可以切出去干别的(或许),这一步是插件在把图片文件存到自己的肚子里。 完成之后,如果你勾选了confirm before download,它会弹出一个提示框问你有没有把Chrome浏览器的一个设置“下载前询问每个文件的保存位置”取消掉,如果没有取消的话每张图Chrome会折磨你一次,务必事先关掉。 【最关键的地方!!】【如果你这一波保存的图片数量适中或较少,图片会快速保存到你的X:\Downloads\Patreon_Downloader\subfolder目录下(第一级是你的Chrome默认下载地址,因人而异。subfolder这一级是你刚才填的子文件夹名字)。这波就入袋为安了。】 但是!!!作者本人推荐每一波下载时加上限制范围,比如选定8月。因为如果一次下载的图片过多,插件会在这里卡住很久很久,至少我是没熬过去。估计很多摸索的人到这一步多次尝试无效之后就被顺利劝退了,我谨以一个探索者的经验献给各位:你的操作没有问题,只是选中的图片太多,导致没有反馈的等待时间突破耐心了。在Patreon作者页面的上方圈定一个范围(一般是限定到某某月),保证每一波的图片数量在30张以内(它还会把缩略图跟原图都保存一边,不知道是不是我的问题),你的保存流程会一帆风顺。 以上,致各位绅士。有些激动,可能有些冗长赘述,望海涵。
  • (2021-07-02) veron westerink: it doesnt download any pictures it says it did but it doesnt save anything
  • (2021-05-29) peter schiller: Doesnt work. Can you please make a detailed description. There is no pop up. It does nothing. I cant see any downloads. I would like to download videos. I do not understand why people need an extra app to download pictures. On Patreon just click on the picture and click save as. But I cant downloand Patreon videos.
  • (2021-05-06) RAVASHEEN CC: I am not sure why this is getting such poor reviews. It works exactly as advertised and saved me hours of time. The post text feature is awesome and the download folder is so well organized. Sure, it took awhile (~30 minutes?) for all my posts which had a mix of videos, images, and gifs (which I was pleasantly suprised to see it saved the gifs as well!). I don't know the exact time because its very simple to just have this running in the background while I did other things. So having it open the gallery etc doesn't seem like a big deal. If I had done this myself it would have taken so, so many hours. Also, patreon does not let you upload videos - only embed through vimeo or youtube. So any expectation for this to download videos is unrealistic. I am rebuilding my website and planned to rename all the files after downloading... I found that the downloaded files were simply named with consecutive numbers in each subfolder. This is so great because my uploaded file names were horrible. Having the downloaded image file names in this format will make it so easy to use a command shell to quick rename the files by just adding a prefix to the name. This is a wonderful plugin and I am very thankful to the creator who took the time to write this! Give the guy a break and read the notes and instructions before using. It is super simple to use and a life-saver. Thank you!!!
  • (2021-03-17) Bella-O-: i needed to download the attachments and it only downloaded the photos
  • (2021-03-11) UMAD BRO?: some download never end. some stop at certain picture
  • (2021-02-27) Pepis: Works exactly as advertised. Like the author says, it simulates a user, so yes, it is a little bit slow if you compare it to a bot, but it is still much faster than manually downloading everything yourself. For long posts, you can simply run it in the background while it is scrolling images.
  • (2021-01-15) Tokuijin: It doesn't work at all.

  • (2024-01-15, v:0.1.4) Braden Farnsley: How do I access the files?
    It says that it downloaded it all fine, but I just have no idea where the files are located. I went to the page, used the extension, and selected to scrape everything, and clicked 'go', it said complete, but I think I'm just dumb cause I have no idea where the files are even located. I'm using Chromebook btw.
  • (2023-11-11, v:0.1.1) Jono Sayner: latest version fails to download images
    creates a default folder in the downloads directory, but the files never download. Just get "Failed - Download error" in the list. I am using on windows chrome which I understand you are unable to test.
  • (2023-11-10, v:0.1.1) Roman Farkas: error
    latest version 0.1.1 not working, not downloading files...seems it cant find correct path to folder whci was created
  • (2023-11-09, v:0.1.1) 성석봉: As expected, you can't download it.
    As expected, you can't download it. Are you uploading after testing? The folder is created with <post name> instead of <yyyy-mm-dd> <post name> you intended, and the download fails because you can't find the download path. If you run it on the post at least once, you'll see what's wrong with it right away. That's why I told you to roll back. It's working, it's working. You're a moron. If you have to manually route it anyway, there is no reason to use something made by a idiot like you. I don't use this trashy program.
  • (2023-11-08, v:0.1.0) 성석봉: Downloads continue to fail because the folder to download cannot be created.
    Downloads continue to fail because the folder to download cannot be created. You have to manually specify the download location one by one. You don't know what's wrong? Does the developer try to run it on patreon post at least once after proceeding with the update and make that nonsense? If you can't fix it, do you roll back.
  • (2023-11-04, v:0.1.0) CubicIronPyrite: Downloader doesn't work after last update 0.1.0.
    The downloader worked great until v0.1.0, now it does not work at all (Windows + Chrome). Scraping still works, but you need to tell Chrome where to save files (which negates the whole purpose of the downloader). Disabling "Ask me where to save files each time" in Chrome results in failed downloads.
  • (2023-11-04, v:0.1.0) 감자삶은: Thanks for the reply. To add...
    Normally, when using the previous version, I saved a month's worth of scraps and opened another Chrome window to watch YouTube or do other things. However, after the update, if move to another tab or are working in another window, the download pop-up window will not appear and immediately proceed to cancel the download. Please just let it download automatically like the previous version. I set the Chrome settings after installing the previous version, but I don't know why it asks me again after the version upgrade. [Check the storage location of each file before downloading] is turned off in the Chrome settings.
  • (2023-11-04, v:0.1.0) 감자삶은: After the update, downloading is not possible.
    After completing the scrap, it ends without saving. Chrome settings are fine. It worked fine before the update, but not after the update. After scraping images of individual posts, a message window will appear asking "Do you want to download?" If you click 'Confirm', they will be downloaded. When I try to do a monthly scrape, it ends without a message after the scrape. When I look at the log it says "Download was cancelled." I didn't take any action.
  • (2023-11-03, v:0.1.0) Tsuki: V 0.1.0
    post 0.1.0 it creates a folder and scrapes every picture but when sent to download it fails to download every picture . also would be nice to have back the option to manually set the folder name .
  • (2023-11-03, v:0.1.0) Halucygeno: Two issues with the extension
    Hello, I have two issues: 1) Sometimes, the extension gets "stuck" on a post and just continues scraping forever. This is frustrating because if there is just one such post in a month, then the scraping for that month never finishes and cannot download, forcing me to open each post on a new tab and download individually. 2) When I first downloaded the extension a few months ago, this wasn't the case, but for some time now, every post I scrape saves with a completely empty "content" section. The title, dates, comments and images are perfectly fine, but the written content of the post itself is ALWAYS missing. Please help. I love this tool, it helps immensely with archival, but these two issues have made it difficult to use.
  • (2023-10-24, v:0.0.10) Violet: Single post or month?
    Every time I try to use the extension it says please use a single creator filtered by single month or post
  • (2023-08-22, v:0.0.10) Fuck Off: What settings do I specifically use?
    What is the specific combination of settings that I use? It's not downloading for me.
  • (2023-07-22, v:0.0.10) Jirka B: Not forwarded for download
    Unfortunately lately it loads photos, but no longer forwards it for download. It freezes at the message. Patreon Downloader scraping page, please wait. I've waited for hours and nothing. When I turn on confirmation before downloading, it loads it, asks whether to forward and then it freezes I've tried English language settings, both British and American. No change

  • (2023-04-03, v:0.0.9) Andrew Meade: Stuck on "Sending to Downloader"
    Restarted pc, reinstalled extension, keeps getting stuck at "Finished scraping. Sending X files to downloader". This happens on single post and posts filtered by month.
  • (2023-03-30, v:0.0.9) 白野: Still not working
    It was working fine up until version 0.0.9. It won't scrape and just stuck. It's not about single post. It's not worrking on every type of post.
  • (2023-03-26, v:0.0.8) Benjamin Myatt: Can't Scrape Individual Posts
    It was working fine up until the recent update. Now it won't scrape individual posts. It keeps asking me to "Please use a single creator filtered by months" when I'm already viewing a single post.
  • (2022-09-23, v:0.0.5) Sean Anderson: Download single post.
    Would be great if you could inject a button inline on the post that allowed us to just download the media from that post. I have an extension like that for another site.
  • (2022-07-24, v:0.0.5) Mitchell Gullefer: Download links in the post description option?
    Hi, the downloader works great for posts that have files attached, but some creators instead choose to include a link in the description to dropbox or similar websites hosting the files. Would it be possible to include an option to download those files as well? If not that's all good. I have run into a few times where the extension freezes saying "downloading" but nothing gets sent to queue, and other cases, and i'd be super interested in looking at the source code to see why but its totally acceptable if you'd rather not share that.

  • (2021-05-03, v:0.0.5) download folder path
    I think , download folder is not "path: 'Patreon_Downloader/' + folder + '/' + subfolder + '/' + padd(prefix) + '_' + filename" but "path: folder + '/' + subfolder + '/' + padd(prefix) + '_' + filename". Almost user, setting default folder. So, 'Patreon_Downloader/' is not necessary. Sorry my poor English. I suggest. download.js ``` (-)L141:path: 'Patreon_Downloader/' + folder + '/' + subfolder + '/' + padd(prefix) + '_' + filename (+)L141:path: folder + '/' + subfolder + '/' + padd(prefix) + '_' + filename

  • (2020-07-13, v:0.0.3) Trever Hickey: Identify but not downloading
    Hi, I tried out the parser. It detected every post (loaded only one month of a Patreon I'm subscribed to), but it didn't download anything. I'm pretty sure I have "download without prompting selected" but it looks like no progress is occurring.

    Scraping completes but no files passed to downloader
  • (2020-05-28, v:0.0.2) Lyle Barrere: Love the extension
    I have a few suggestions I'd love to see: • Default folder structure (for example Patreon_Downloader/Creater_Name/Year/Month) • Ability to download image and video attachments. A lot of creators attach hi-res photos to posts and right now the scraper skips them. • Bug fixes for downloader issues (only download one post, download the same image multiple times) • Text file with text of post added to each sub folder so there is context for the images in the archive. • follow and download vimeo, dropbox, we transfer links and place files in correct sub folder.
  • (2020-05-20, v:0.0.2) Yan Yuen: Nothing start after Scraping
    Download never start. After the pop-up asking whether I turn the download path pop-up, then it do nothing.
  • (2020-05-18, v:0.0.2) Zeyad Aljuhani: this extension is great
    this extension is really good but there's a couple of problems one of them is sometime the popups don't appear after the scraping is done and sometimes when i click on ok the extension only downloads one post and leaves other posts
