Here’s a quick Python script which you can use to download all images from a remote directory say from www.example.com/dir1/. I have used beautiful soup to do all the heavy-lifting.
from BeautifulSoup import BeautifulSoup as bs
import urlparse
from urllib2 import urlopen
from urllib import urlretrieve
import os
import sys
def main(url, out_folder="D:/deckfinal/"):
soup = bs(urlopen(url))
for image in soup.findAll("a"):
parsed = url+image['href']
filename = image['href']
outpath = os.path.join(out_folder, filename)
try:
urlretrieve(parsed, outpath)
except:
print "skipping" + parsed
if __name__ == "__main__":
main("http://www.example.com/dir1/images/", "D://myimages")
