blogspot-downloader's Issues

when i run the py.file to download, there is an error log

Try to scrape rss feed url automatically ... https://xxx.blogspot.com/
<urlopen error [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: unable to get local issuer certificate (_ssl.c:1076)>
Request webpage failed, please check your network OR authorized to access that url.

I want to know how to solve it? I can sure i can browse the blogspot.com in Chrome, and i have one proxy in the iterm where the blogspot_downloader.py was run.

Error either passing URL or feed URL

This is what I get passing feed URL:

python blogspot_downloader.py -p -f https://foo.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default
Download in rss feed mode
Scraping rss feed... https://foo.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default?start-index=1&max-results=25

    print('\ntitle: ' + title_raw)

and this is what I get passing only the simple URL:

Someone else had the same issue, but even after updating everything it still doesn't work

Various RSS PDF download issues

Thanks for this useful script!

For some reason I seem to only be able to download the specific blog I'm after through the rss feed (with option -p), however every time I run the command the scrapping and downloading stops at a particular post.

I've tried using the -a -s and -p flags to download a specific year (or month) after the post which seems to be causing the problem, but I get the following error:

title: Baru Samarinda
link: https://blog-name.blogspot.com//2015/07/baru-samarinda-terima.html
Download html as PDF, please be patient...18/71
file path: /home/xthursdayx/blogspot-downloader/blog name.blogspot.com /Baru Samarinda Terima Penganugerahan P....pdf
pdfkit IOError

I also tried the command python3 blogspot_downloader.py -lo http://blog-name.blogspot.com/, exporting the results to urls.list and then ran the command python3 blogspot_downloader.py -p -1 <urls.list and got the following error:

Any idea what my problem is? Thanks for the help!
