Can I support custom save path?

Currently, the only way to change the download path is to edit the following line in in helpers/config.py

DOWNLOAD_FOLDER = "Downloads"

I am a novice. If I change it to /media/tg/, will it be saved to the root directory /media/tg/, or will it create a new /media/tg/ in the current directory of the script? Because I saw that the original one was created in the script directory.

It will create a new directory in the current working directory of the script. Would you like to change the download path to save the content outside the directory of the script?

Yes, I want to save it outside the working directory

Ok, I've just updated the script to support a custom download path provided as an input argument. Specifically, you can run the following command to download all the media items from an album link to a custom download path by specifying its absolute path:

python3 main.py <gofile_album> --download-path <custom_download_path>

You can either use the main.py or the downloader.py in the same way. If you don't pass a custom download path, the script will store the downloaded files in the default Downloads folder, which will be created inside the current working directory.

I've tested the script with a couple of sample links. Let me know if everything works as expected on your end as well.

Cheers.
