Archive complete threads with images with a truncated 4chanX injected and more features for more comfortable browsing of the threads.
- Works on Android with the proper GNU tools (use Google to find these). Please edit the interpreter in the first line before using it on Android!
- The script saves the thread to the current location of the console
- HTTPS protocol is ignored, HTTP is used for everything
- The thread's HTML is cleaned up of everything not necessary, which results in a very small filesize
- The gallery works only if the it's accessed online, because of XMLHttpRequest
- Deleted posts aren't prereserved, but if you started archiving the thread before the deletion of the post/image, the image will most likely be saved (if you find a way to preserve posts as well, post an issue or pull request to contact me)
- Basic GNU tools
- sed
- wget
- Linux, Windows with cygwin (not tested on Mac)
4chan has some nasty and/or illegal images. All images in a thread will be downloaded! Images from ads are not downloaded. Author(s) shall not be liable for any legal action result from use of this software. If you are unsure if a thread will contain illegal images, use tmpfs. Keep that stuff off your computer.
