gdluxx

gdluxx is nothing more than a self-hosted browser based gui for gallery-dl.

It gives you a simple web interface to manage downloads, edit your configuration file, and monitor jobs without touching the command line.

• GUI An interface for gallery-dl to act upon one or more URLs. Paste links into a web page instead of typing commands.
• Config file editor: Built-in JSON editor to create/modify your configuration file. The editor provides visual indicators when syntax errors are present.
• See What's Happening: View active and past jobs. "Running", "Error", and "Completed" indicators.
• Updater: Download gallery-dl and keep it updated without leaving the app.
• Browser Extension Support: Companion browser extension that sends the current tab's URL to gdluxx. You don't even have to return to the app to download the galleries.
• Fully Self Contained: Privacy oriented, there are no unwanted outbound calls to "phone home", retrieve fonts, stylesheets, icons, etc. The only time gdluxx reaches out to the internet is when YOU initiate it.

Why?

I started with just being curious if it was possible. Once it was working, I thought that if I could have a browser extension to send the URL to the app, that would be quite the timesaver. It's grown from there. I know it doesn't seem like much on the surface, but it's been a lot of effort to get to this point.

Also, I'm a badge wearing DataHoarder.
