Last night I went around the Internet to find some good wallpapers for my 1650*1050 laptop screen, then I found a good place with many wps divided into many types, and ready to be downloaded. One problem everyone will get is they just provide link to download 1 wallpaper at a time, so this script came out :).
I'm actually not a programmer, I write script just to make thing work, then it works, that's all. If someone can make it better, please let me know.
At the end, enjoy!
update 1: python script
#/usr/bin/env python
# hungnv coded
# Usage: hdwp.py then choose type
import os
types = ['abstract', 'computer', 'nature', 'travel', 'cars', 'celerbrities', 'animal']
def _getlink(bi, num, prefix):
address = 'http://www.hdwallpapers.net/gallery/wallpapers/'
final = (address + '%s' + '/%s%s%s.zip') %(bi, bi, prefix, num)
return final
def downloader(_xx_):
link = _getlink(x, i, _xx_)
print 'Link is: %s' %link
osvn = 'wget '+_getlink(x, i, _xx_)+' '
os.system(osvn)
if __name__=='__main__':
for i in range(len(types)):
print i+1,'.',types[i]
x = raw_input('Choose which type of wp you want to download: ')
if x in types:
for i in range(1,108):
if i < 10:
_pref = '_000'
downloader(_pref)
elif i > 9 and i < 100:
_pref = '_00'
downloader(_pref)
else:
_pref = '_0'
downloader(_pref)
else:
print 'plz choose type again'
exit()
Usage: copy and save it whatever name you want, chmod +x then run, enter your choice, wait until it finished. Update 0: I modified to make it sorter.
