[Coomer] Unusable

[masterofobzene]

Getting:

[downloader.http][warning] HTTPSConnectionPool(host='n2.coomer.st', port=443): Read timed out. (1/5)
[downloader.http][warning] HTTPSConnectionPool(host='n2.coomer.st', port=443): Read timed out. (read timeout=30.0) (2/5)
[downloader.http][warning] HTTPSConnectionPool(host='n2.coomer.st', port=443): Read timed out. (read timeout=30.0) (3/5)

all the time since a week at least.

If there is a special configuration needed please let me know, otherwise I think this is game over for gallery-dl on this site.

getting same error.

Try the Firefox cookies export add-on. I get those errors but not always.

[masterofobzene]

I'm using my cookies from librewolf.

EDIT, also:

[masterofobzene]

Hello again, I found out this new script which is downloading full speed without cookies and doesn't suffer from rates.

https://github.com/APT37/kumono

Now, if the gallery-dl dev could check the code... maybe he could fix coomer/kemono.

If not, well... use the alternative while it lasts.

@masterofobzene thanks for sharing this alternative tool

[a84r7a3rga76fg]

@masterofobzene I'm getting the same speed with both programs.

Also, that program's author isn't telling the truth. gallery-dl can keep track of downloaded files, resume downloading, retry, and do so many more things like customizing file names, choosing what to keep track of, and so on.

[masterofobzene]

I don't know. FYI I'm not against gallerydl but the dev said he is not going to do anything with this particular error.

Here is how kumono works for me

BTW, the glitches are from the "blue recorder" (screen recorder app) which is shit, as you can see.

this is a server issue, not gallery-dl issue

https://github.com/APT37/kumono
this code use rust and also rust reqwest is design for concurrency , design to download multiple files at once, but lack a way to check if all files download are completed or not.

gallery-dl does one file at a time, also make sure the file complete download without any issue

I tried kumono and was getting "completed" downloads but in reality they had not completed and were partial files only.

Has anyone found a way to at least work around this restriction, or other programs (besides kumono, which always terminates with some downloads having failed)? I have had some success limiting my speeds and waiting for 6+ hours between downloads.

[nanokoala]

yeah it takes ages to properly download a model from coomer with gallery-dl. needs to be fixed

Downloads at full speed without timeouts or pauses for me, others said it didn't work.
I workarounded this issue by simply using kumono on coomer.
