⚠️ Using commands can slow down huge batch downloads (a recent computer may need from 100ms to 1s more per image) ⚠️
Follow the quickstart in the official README.md documentation from the Danbooru repository. Note that you’ll need to have Docker installed.
It pretty much only amounts to downloading the docker-compose.yaml file and doing docker-compose up.
You need NodeJS to be installed on your machine to use the upload script used by Grabber. You can download it from their website, or from a package manager here.
Download the danbooru.js file into Grabber’s installation folder.
This script uses the NodeJS axios and form-data packages, so you can install them with:
npm install -g axios form-data
Make sure the NODE_PATH environment variable is properly set to point to your global node_modules folder. On Windows, it’s usually:
C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules
But you can check the exact path with:
npm root -g
Open Grabber, then go to “Options > Commands”, and set the “Image” field to:
node danbooru.js "YOUR_USERNAME" "YOUR_API_KEY" "%all:includenamespace,unsafe,underscores%" "%rating%" "%source:raw%" "%path:nobackslash%"
Make sure to replace YOUR_USERNAME by your Danbooru username, and YOUR_API_KEY by the API key created earlier.
If you want to open newly added images in your browser, you need to edit the danbooru.js file, and change OPEN_BROWSER from false to true.
You’ll also need to install the NodeJS open package, that you can install with:
npm install -g open
