Download Logseq repository images to local asset folder

LogseqImagesToAssetFolder.py

#!/usr/bin/env python
# coding: utf-8


# What is this?
# This script is for logseq webapp users that want to switch to the local version.
# It will download all images that are linked inside your graph and store them in the local "/assets/" folder.

# Remarks
# 1. Only supports Markdown files (for now)
# 2. Filnames are not preserved. The filenames will be a news random string. (Let me know if you need it otherwise.)
# 2. Make sure you close Logseq Desktop app and disconnect web app before starting!
# 3. Use at your own risk! Verify everything worked before permanently moving to the new local version!

# How to use
# 1. Download your logseq repository from Github to your local machine.
# 2. Run the script with "-f <Path to that repository>"
# 3. Reccomended if you know how: Check the uncommitted changes to the repository. This is an easy way to check if everything worked as intended.
# 3. Open that folder in the logseq client.

Thanks for this! Helped me a ton. 🥇
Note that the path given by the user must have a trailing slash, otherwise nothing happens (because of line 53).

Thanks a lot. I've changed two things to make it work for me.
1- Replace line 30 to

regex_markdownFile = re.compile(r'!\[[^\]]*\]\((http.+)\)') # markdown file syntax

2- Add utf-8 to file open to overcome encoding errors. So run_dl becomes:

def run_dl(logseq_dir):
    for fPath in glob.glob(f"{logseq_dir}**/*.md", recursive=True):
        matches = []
        print(fPath)
        with open(fPath, encoding='utf-8') as _file:
            filedata = _file.read()
            _file.seek(0)
            for i, line in enumerate(_file.readlines()):
                matches.extend(regex_markdownFile.findall(line))
        for match in matches:
            new_url = save_file_locally(logseq_dir=logseq_dir, url=match)
            if new_url:
                filedata = filedata.replace(match, new_url)

        with open(fPath, 'w', encoding='utf-8') as _file:
            _file.write(filedata)
        print(fPath)
