Returning image URLs instead of downloading images #24

Closed KuroganeToyama closed 1 month ago

KuroganeToyama commented 1 month ago

I'm wondering if it's possible to implement a method that instead of downloading images, would simply collect the source URL of each image collected. This would be really useful, as people (and me 😅 ) could use that to integrate this crawler into developing our own APIs, while still respecting the artists.

I had this thought because I wanna be able to use your tool to let the Discord bot do some more fun for the little server of me and my friends 😅

I think (very subjective statement here) that this feature should be not too hard, from my glance at the source code, but do correct me if I'm wrong 😅

Will be done this week.

Thanks a lot! I'd also really appreciate if you could give me update when you've implemented the feature. But if you do hit a block, do update me as well, and maybe I could be of some help. Thanks again! 😁

download_config.url_only: bool: Whether to download image URLs only, without downloading images. URL will be returned through app.run(). :warning:
```
...
download_config.url_only = True

...
urls = app.run()  # a set of image URLs
```
