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.

Features

• GUI: Paste one or more URLs to download. No CLI
• Batch Processing: Submit multiple URLs at once.
• Site Rules: Automatically apply specific gallery-dl options based on URL patterns.
• Config Editor: Built-in JSON editor with syntax highlighting, validation, and file upload support.
• Keyword Info: Test what metadata is available for supported sites.
• Themes: Some different themes to choose, light and dark modes.
• Job Management: Track running, completed, and failed jobs.
• Browser Extension: Send URLs directly from your browser. Available for both Chrome and Firefox.
• Overlay UI: Extension provides an overlay for sending URLs without leaving your current page.
• API Access: Endpoint available if you want to write your own scripts.
  • Yes, I understand you don't need gdluxx for this.
• Version Management: Update the gallery-dl binary from the app.
• Self-Contained: No external dependencies for fonts, styles, or icons. There are no external calls to the internet except when you explicitly request 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.
