"Exception: Failed to find regex match in html"

I was seeing this issue awhile back, but it "went away" but it appears to have returned.

$ python3.5 ~/imgur_downloader/imgur_downloader/imgurdownloader.py https://imgur.com/ADImt3B

And now it works again. I swear imgur is gaslighting me.

Having this error right now, looks like imgur just started requiring auth to access certain albums.

jtara1 commented 5 years ago

@crobo1337 you mean to access private albums or just some public ones?

crobo1337 commented 5 years ago

It looks like any posts tagged as NSFW require a login now.

Will likely require a re-work to grab an Auth token and pass that with the request. Or just using the api directly.

Looks like you can just embed an existing global api key to get it working.

gallery-dl supports downloading from the variety of links this project supports. I'm going to archive this repo.

Check for support for this there or report an issue there.
