Screenshot

Usage

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

Settings

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.

Creating aliases for pylibgen

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!
