                       A JSON file with valid bandcamp credential cookies.
                       "Cookie Quick Manager" can be used to obtain this file after logging into bandcamp.

## Bandcamp authentication 

This tool does not manage authentication with Bandcamp servers, as they require a valid token from Google Captcha.
Hence, authentication must first be achieved using Firefox, then Bandcamp cookies must be exported in JSON using the Firefox Addon [Cookie Quick Manager](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/cookie-quick-manager/). 
This JSON file can then be used using the mandatory parameter `--cookies-file`:

## Installation

After each commit, the continuous integration (CI) builds a new standalone (ie. that includes all dependencies) executable jar that can be used as is.
The last produced jar can always be found [at this link](https://framagit.org/Gwendal/bandcamp-collection-downloader/-/jobs/artifacts/master/raw/build/libs/bandcamp-collection-downloader.jar?job=build).

## Usage

Example of command:

```dtd
$ java -jar bandcamp-collection-downloader.jar --cookies-file=cookies.json --download-folder=~/Music myBandcampIdentifier
```

This will download all albums ever bought by the Bandcamp account *myBandcampIdentifier*, 
and extract the music in the folder `~/Music`, 
The tool always creates one folder per artist, each containing one folder per album (with the format `<year> - <album name>`).

## Compiling

Compilation is handled by Gradle.
A task `fatJar` is available to build a standalone executable jar with all dependencies:  

```
$ git clone https://framagit.org/Gwendal/bandcamp-collection-downloader.git
$ cd bandcamp-collection-downloader
$ gradle fatjar
```

The resulting binary can then be found in `build/libs/bandcamp-collection-downloader.jar`.

## Dependencies
 
 This tool relies on the following libraries:
 - [jsoup](https://jsoup.org/) to get and parse HTML,
 - [zt-zip](https://github.com/zeroturnaround/zt-zip) to unzip downloaded albums,
 - [picocli](https://picocli.info/) to provide a fancy CLI,
 - [Gson](https://github.com/google/gson) to parse JSON.
