makingglitches / GooglePhotoDownload

Connects to Google Photos and downloads all content, keeping track of original data on disk and moving files only on the computer and already on server to respective directories, and tries to download the entire collection and store size info for quicker startup as well as original file sizes of those on disk, downloading the files still on disk first so they can be freed up. Supports multiple user accounts. Its just a better mousetrap. Google Takeout prepares whole archives of photos, this allows you to download them separately and keep track of some statistics as well on space usage.

Make local checking optional #25

Open makingglitches opened 3 years ago

In segmenting behavior make checking of local file store optional and trust the downloaded or missing flags once quirks are fixed.

This takes a very large amount of time that could be avoided on reruns.

Even if it is the best way.

this is already partly the case now. am not checking every last item anymore.

perhaps also local checks might occur asynchronously along with size checks and downloading ? perhaps local searches for tracking items might as well ?
