@mikf Maybe I'm just dense, but how does https://github.com/mikf/gallery-dl/commit/3afd362e2e47dd852183906371d31db5d324ab6f relate to this issue?
It doesn't. I somehow got the issue number wrong, sorry about that. It was supposed to close #788.
As it turns out Tumblr's API has no builtin support for searches.
We could try to simulate a search by manually ignoring posts that don't fit the search criteria, although there is a good chance this won't exactly match Tumblr's results, or we go through the results in https://….tumblr.com/search/…
and filter any post ids that aren't listed there, but in both cases we'd still have to fetch all posts from a blog and use up the API limit.
There is a service called https://www.tumbex.com. It has search, yet doesn't support search on individual blog.
Just like Twitter, there might be a way to search post by blog. On twitter, we can search tweet by user: text to search from:@theuser
.
Edit: If it doesn't exist, then suggest. https://github.com/tumblr
Tumblr tagging isn't powerful enough. There is a better way to get posts by exact content and it's post search. It works for post's source too.
Here an example: https://yellowblog.tumblr.com/search/Twitter

hasn't implemented this yet. Please make this as a feature.
