A python3 script to download books from libgen.io

• sudo apt-get install python3 python3-bs4 python3-lxml python3-tabulate

usage: pylibgen.py [-h] [-t | -a | -p | -y] search [search ...]
positional arguments:
 search search term
optional arguments:
 -h, --help show this help message and exit
 -t, --title get books from the specified title
 -a, --author get books from the specified author
 -p, --publisher get books from the specified publisher
 -y, --year get books from the specified year

The default download path for the books is set to the directory from where you run the script. You can easily tweak this and some other options changing the variable's values in settings.py.

I'm too lazy! If I open a terminal, I don't want type python3 pylibgen.py -a Julian Osorno

The best way for download books from Library Genesis is editing .bashrc and add one line like this:

• alias library-genesis='python3 /home/blackout/.library-genesis/pylibgen.py'

Thats all.

Happy Reading!
