Basic gyazo image downloader to clone all of your images, minus any meta-data.

gyazo-download.js

/*
    Basic Gyazo file downloader.

    How-to-use:
        1. Dependencies
            Ensure you are using a recent version of node (tested w/ node v12)
            Install node-fetch
        2. Folder
            Create an "imgs" folder in your current directory
        3. Cookie
            Open the Gyazo site, open the network tab and scroll down.
            Once you see a request that goes to https://gyazo.com/api/internal/images?page=1&per=40,
            Go to Request headers and copy the contents of the "Cookie" header.
            Put it into the env variable "cookie".

    Notes:
        - You lose meta-data. This isn't ideal, and is something I want to improve
        - Randomly fails - I've definitely not worked out all of the bugs, but it works most of the time.
        It starts from page 0 on restart but will fetch the image list and see that all images have been downloaded already,
        and move on.

I got lost. How do I find my way back home?

You don't, your stuck here now.

Just wanted to say thanks, because this still worked flawlessly 4 years later, for 2000 images.

Glad to hear it helped. Surprised it still works - it barely worked at the time...

in case someone still stumbles upon this page, just letting you know this doesn't work anymore. gyazo no longer sends the image_id for other than the latest 10 images

Still works, you can get a "pro" trial without introducing your credit card or any new information and the script works flawlessly.

Oh yeah I totally forgot to mention this is what I did as well.
