The version number like ripme-1.7.94-17-2167aa34-feature_auto_release.jar contains a release number (1.7.94), given by a person, the number of commits since this version (17). The commit SHA (2167aa34) uniquely references the source code ripme was built from. If it is not built from the main branch, the branch name (feature/auto-release) is given.

List of Supported Sites

See the full list of Supported Sites in the wiki.

The list of supported rippers includes:

• imgur
• twitter (currently broken, needs to be updated for X)
• tumblr
• instagram

If you're a developer, you can add your own Ripper by following the wiki guide: How To Create A Ripper for HTML Websites.

Compiling & Building

The project uses Gradle.

In particular, we use the gradlew script (gradlew.bat on Windows) to build the app and run tests.

To build the .jar file and run the appropriate tests, navigate to the root project directory and run gradlew with the appropriate commands (see below). Ensure that you manually test that your change works, add or update the corresponding test, and run at least the test(s) that are relevant to your change.

For example, if you modify the Xhamster ripper, you might run this or a similar command:

./gradlew clean build testAll --tests XhamsterRipperTest.testXhamster2Album

Here's a breakdown of the functionality of the gradlew scripts:

The build verb will build the .jar, the tests, and will also run the tests ,except for disabled and flaky tests.

Thus build and build test are actually synonymous.

./gradlew build
./gradlew build test

You can get more specific with your test commands:

./gradlew clean build testAll --tests XhamsterRipperTest.testXhamster2Album
./gradlew clean build -x test --warning-mode all

To perform a clean rebuild, which is only necessary to see warnings for unchanged files or if you believe that the incremental build is interfering with the build picking up your changes, for example. That shouldn't be an issue for gradle, so you should check for easier explanations like whether you saved your changes. :)

./gradlew clean

To build ("assemble") the .jar without running the tests, which is useful for manual verification of functionality of a work in progress, run the following:

./gradlew assemble

The generated JAR (java archive) in build/libs will include all dependencies.

Running Tests

Tests can be tagged as beeing slow, or flaky. The gradle build reacts to the following combinations of tags:

• default is to run all tests without tag.
• testAll runs all tests.
• testFlaky runs tests with tag "flaky".
• testSlow runs tests with tag "slow".
• tests can be run by test class, or single test. Use "testAll" so it does not matter if a test is tagged or not.
• tests can give the full stack of an assertion, exception, or error if you pass --info to the command

./gradlew test
./gradlew testAll
./gradlew testFlaky
./gradlew testSlow
./gradlew testAll --tests XhamsterRipperTest
./gradlew testAll --tests XhamsterRipperTest.testXhamster2Album
./gradlew testAll --tests ChanRipperTest --info

Please note that some tests may fail as sites change and our rippers become out of date. Start by building and testing a released version of RipMe and then ensure that any changes you make do not cause more tests to break.
