Download all photos from Auto Backup folder #20

Closed bakkandris closed 8 years ago

bakkandris commented 10 years ago

The Auto Backup folder seems to be magical because it can contain more than 1000 pictures. This is clearly displayed when I run the script with -v. (I have around 16000 images in there.)

The script as it stands can only download the "first" 1000 of the pictures. I played around in the code and introduced pagination for the retrieval of the picture metadata with the optional parameters limit and start_index of gd_client.GetFeed but I am still unable to download more than 10.000 photos.

If I go above 10.000 with the start_index I get the following error from Google: (500, 'Internal Server Error', 'Deprecated offset is too large for a stream ID query. Please switch to using resume tokens.')

Any ideas how this limitation can be overcome or what resume tokens could be?

Sorry for long delay. I'm afraid I don't know, and am going to close the issue as (although it is an interesting question) isn't really an issue against the code
