Option to download only favorite photos from Google Photos #62

Open steveny2k opened 3 years ago

steveny2k commented 3 years ago

Photos in Google Photos are too many to download all of them. It would be great to provide an option to download only the favorite photos.

tripleo1 commented 3 years ago

It doesn't look to me as if there's any way to discern or distinguish the Favorites from normal photos.

@tripleo1 could https://developers.google.com/photos/library/guides/apply-filters#favorites allow it?

tripleo1 commented 3 years ago

Oh, you found it. I'll look into it.

How did it go? Could this issue be closed?

tripleo1 commented 3 years ago

I get a strange error that needs further work from Google Photos API. But it seems like the author is not too keen on adding this feature. There is another project somebody interested might want to look into: https://github.com/perkeep/gphotos-cdp

The feature is great, I'm just not keen on the implementation. It needs to be reworked (details in the PR).
