GroupMe Gallery Downloader

Download all of the photos in any group you have access to via the command line.

What you'll need

• An environment capable of running Node
• Git installed locally
• Your GroupMe access token

Where to get your access token

• Go to https://dev.groupme.com/
• Login with your existing GroupMe credentials.
• Click "Access Token"
• Copy your token to your clipboard

How to run this program

In terminal or your editor of choice, run the following:

• cd to your desired location.
• git clone https://github.com/TylerK/groupme-gallery-downloader.git
• cd groupme-gallery-downloader
• yarn && yarn start - or - npm i && npm start

You will be prompted for your GroupMe access token. Go ahead and paste it in and press enter. Assuming all went well, you will now be able to select a group you have access to. Select a group and you should see a stream of photos filling up a newly created photos folder.

NOTE: Your access token is stored locally in the data folder so you can re-use it later. This folder is ignored by Git, but please do not make it publically available in any way shape or form.

Restarting

Simply run yarn start or npm start and select the group you were downloading from, the downloader will pick up where you left off :)
