[Exhentai] How to get URLs by certain uploaders while using chapter-range? #5012

I'm using this to get the latest 40 galleries. Is there any way to filter out uploaders whose names aren't ASD and ZXC?

gallery-dl -g --chapter-range 1-40 https://exhentai.org/? > 'urls.txt'

Theoretically with --chapter-filter, but this has only gallery_id and gallery_token as available metadata.

Couldn't you add negative tags to your search query to exclude uploaders? /?f_search=-uploader%3AUPLOADER_NAME

There's also an Excluded Uploaders field in the exh settings menu.

Could uploader, title, title_jpn and tags be added to --chapter-filter in a future update? I can't use the website's excluded uploaders or tags because of their limitation. Right now I'm saving the JSON file of every gallery which does extra requests and I get banned faster from it.

We are yet again at a point where writing a custom script using exh's API would be the best solution, since it can process up to 25 entries in a single request.

I'm checking for the latest uploaded galleries from certain uploaders every minute and I've never seen them upload 25 galleries during cooldown.
