Desktoppr.co

Post by Kondemoor » 04 Dec 2015, 00:51

Hello. I've been trying unsuccessfully to download all wallpapers from this site. It has a most peculiar way of delivering wallpapers: you must have a dropbox account and then the wallpapers you select are downloaded to your shared folder via some kind of API that uses URLs similar to https://www.desktoppr.co/api/1/user/wallpapers/<number here>/selection

As far as I've seen, the wallpapers are saved into some https://a.desktopprassets.com/wallpapers/ . When you copy the url of the preview image it directs you to (for example) https://a.desktopprassets.com/wallpaper ... t-3226.jpg .Now for the fun part: If you erase the "preview_" text from the URL you get the full JPG without having to use all the dropbox stuff. in the previous example https://a.desktopprassets.com/wallpaper ... t-3226.jpg

Now with this info the question is, can Extreme Picture be set to download all wallpapers either by tricking the API to think the user is cliking the link, or by deleting the words "Preview_" or "Thumbs_" from the followed links?

Thanks and regards.

Well, it's easy to transform URLs in Extreme Picture Finder with Custom Parsers. Here is the parser I used for this one:

Regular Expression: src="(//.+?/)thumb_([^"]+)"
Result: https:[#1][#2]

It simply uses "everything, except thumb_".

I added this project to the built-in project database, under the "Desktop wallpapers" category. You're welcome to download and use it.
