Basic Issuu scraper, and since I'm not an expert at Python, this is a simple script and nothing advanced or special. It still does the trick though. :) Enter the url, and then enter the number of pages the book has. The program will then do the rest by downloading each image, compiling into a pdf, and outputting the urls and information in separate text files.
python3 ./issuu.py
The script will prompt you to enter Issuu item's URL and page count.
This script requires Python 3, and the packages urllib, Beautiful Soup, and wget. To install the required packages:
pip install urllib3 beautifulsoup4 wget
This package also requires the convert
command from ImageMagick
This script was inspired and is based on the Ruby script from pietrop: https://github.com/pietrop/issuu.com-downloader as well as dkl3's original python script: https://github.com/dkl3/py-issuu-scrape
