Content Grabber Tool 2.0
Installation and Usage
Overview
Version 1.0 used the Pyinstaller tool to turn the program into a single executable app. But this
causes unexpected errors with older versions of Mac OS. To fix these the app should be recompiled
with Pyinstaller on the old version of Mac. Since this is not a scalable solution v2.0 is distributed as
source.

Installation
•

Clone the source code from https://github.com/xavierdcruz0/content_downloader.

•

Cloning from the command line requires Xcode, so I will assume you’re cloning the tool by
downloading it as a .zip file through the browser:

•

Unzip the codebase

•

Open terminal and navigate to the location of the content_grabber tool (assuming it’s in your
Downloads folder:)
◦ cd Downloads/content_downloader­master

•

Type in the following command to install the tool and its dependencies (input your password
where prompted):

◦ sudo ./install.sh

Usage
To avoid cluttering up your system’s default python installation, this tool runs from a “virtualenv”.
You need to run this virtualenv to run the tool. To run the virtualenv, type the following from inside
the content_downloader­master folder:
•

source twelve_env/bin/activate

If successful the prompt at the left hand side of the terminal will read
•

(twelve_env)…

Now you’re ready to run the program. Type:
•

python content_grabber/content_grabber.py
