[Request] Add "Description" to Extractors' Included Subcategories #1114

Closed biznizz closed 4 years ago

biznizz commented 4 years ago

Was hoping that a functionality where the extractor can, if enabled, download the description of any submissions on sites such as Deviantart, Furaffinity, etc. Hopefully either as a .txt file or even as an .html.

Many submissions usually have context included in the artist/author's submission that would be nice to have saved along with the main art/story/music/etc.

This can be done with a metadata post-processor: https://github.com/mikf/gallery-dl/blob/7003e61d1de70383232dd867ac1c348b2ff8b088/docs/gallery-dl-example.conf#L79-L90

Options and their descriptions can be found at https://github.com/mikf/gallery-dl/blob/master/docs/configuration.rst#metadatamode

This worked, thank you! Wish it was a bit simpler and was more easily toggable, but beggars can't be choosers.

Have a good one.
