Try to automatically retrieve cookie and csrfToken for download

python3 kindle.py --dedrm --cn  ## --dedrm to remove DRM

(Recommended) Manually enter cookie and csrfToken for download

python3 kindle.py ${csrfToken} --cookie ${cookie} --dedrm --cn  # Download China-market books and remove DRM
python3 kindle.py ${csrfToken} --cookie ${cookie} --dedrm # Download US-market books

By default, all files are downloaded. To manually select which books to download, execute:

python3 kindle.py --mode sel # or "python3 kindle.py --pdoc --mode sel" for personal documents

After retrieving the book list, the program will prompt:

Input the index of books you want to download, split by space (q to quit, l to list books).

To quit, type "q" and press Enter; type "l" and press Enter to re-display the book list. To download books, input the corresponding indices (e.g., 7 10 20):

7 10 20

Indices can also be specified with ranges, for example:

4 5 10:12 15

This downloads books 4, 5, 10, 11, 12, and 15.

If the cookie is reported as invalid by default, you can manually input it. On the all books page, open the browser's developer tools (F12), go to the Network panel, locate any ajax request, and copy the Cookie from its request headers. The csrfToken can also be found in the Payload.

Then run:

python3 kindle.py --cn --cookie ${cookie}

You can also save the cookie to a text file and run python3 kindle.py --cookie-file ${cookie_file} to download books.

If the process fails to obtain the CSRF token, you can manually input it. The csrfToken can be found in the page source on the all books page. Right-click, view the page source, and search for csrfToken to copy its value. Then run:

# CSRF Token
python3 kindle.py --cn ${csrfToken}
# Both cookie and CSRF Token
python3 kindle.py --cn --cookie ${cookie} ${csrfToken}

If you are running on your local machine, the project can use the browser-cookie3 library to automatically retrieve cookies from your browser.

• Cookie and CSRF token will expire; simply refresh the Amazon page.
• The program will automatically create a DOWNLOADS directory in the current working directory; downloaded books will be stored there.
• Supports directly dedrm-ing mobi files with --dedrm; processed files are saved in the DEDRMS folder.
• If you use DeDRM_tools to decrypt, the key is stored in key.txt.
• Alternatively, you can simply drag the file into Calibre (please google it).
• If the process fails, you can use e.g. --resume-from ${num}
• If a file name is too long, add --cut-length 70 to truncate it.
• Supports downloading push files with --pdoc.
• If there are many duplicate pdoc or book names, you can use --resolve_duplicate_names to resolve conflicts.
• Error logs are recorded in .error_books.log.
• Supports generating a README of recently finished books with --readme; the file is generated as my_kindle_stats.md.
• Supports dedrm-ing mobi files directly using --dedrm; the output files are placed in DEDRMS.
• The script dedrm.py is used to decrypt downloaded e-book files independently, outputting both azw and epub formats by default.

# For the latter three parameters, only specify if necessary. Usage: python3 dedrm.py <source_directory> <target_directory> <key> <output_format>
# For example, to decrypt files in the "ebook" directory and generate dedrm files in epub format only:
$ python3 dedrm.py ebook DeDRMed "key_string_from_key.txt" epub
