Feature request: download by latest successful try

[afterdelight]

Could you make the script only parse and download data by latest successful download (by date)? (ex: latest successful download: 20190606, downloaded data 100% successful). Since they are a lot of unused images and videos from target account, I don't want to keep repeating deleting them. It also will save parsing time from account with large amounts of images and videos. Thank you :)

Use the -b option

Can you explain how -b option works in detail? I don't really understand.

The weibo with id 4382139325785907 was posted at 2019/06/11 23:28

-b 4382139325785907: means extracting weibos whose id large than 4382139325785907 also equal to extracting weibos sent after 2019/06/11 23:28

-b :4382139325785907 means before 2019/06/11 23:28

-b 4382139325785907:4388622797092643 extracting weibos between these two weibos were sent

Sorry, I don't really understand how to get the post id. I use .com version, weibo.com/u/xxxxxx like in this post. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/22563468/how-can-i-get-the-id-of-some-weibo-post.

Well, it's hard to get the mid of post in Weibo PC site (www.weibo.com) But now you can directly use "bid" in -b option

For the example in your reference url: http://www.weibo.com/1833141401/AC1klvp6U?mod=weibotime

The "bid" of this post is AC1klvp6U

It works! Thank you. Btw, I have another suggestion on https://github.com/nondanee/weiboPicDownloader/issues/39#issuecomment-501670903. I don't think you saw it.
