  1. Installing Python3 and needed modules:
  • Can be installed on Debian and Ubuntu and other Linux distribution that use 'apt' like this:
# apt install python3 python3-dev python3-pip libxml2-dev libxslt1-dev zlib1g-dev
# pip3 install pyquery argparse
  • On Arch/Antergos:
# pacman -S python python-pip
# pip install pyquery argparse
  • If someone got it running on another OS, please let me know!
  1. Get input link
  • Go to the comic you want to download (any page)
  • Rightclick on the comic name in the upper left corner and select "Copy linkaddress" (Or similar) or just use the name behind series in the url.
  • Examples: https://tapas.io/series/Erma, RavenWolf, ...
  1. Start the download
  • Usage of tapas-dl.py:
$ tapas-dl.py [-h/--help] [-f/--force] [-v/--verbose] URL/name [URL/name ...]
  • The script will create an folder with the name and urlName (name [urlName]) of the comic in the current shell location (like git) and download all images of the comic into it.
  • If the script finds an folder with the name of the comic, it will only update, this can be disabled with -f/--force.
  • To get the verbose output use -v/--verbose.
