This package is not endorsed, supported, or affiliated with Humble Bundle, Inc.

It is distributed under the MIT license, you may use, modify and redistribute it freely provided you agree with the terms of that license, that can be found online or under the accompanying LICENSE file.

This repository contains code from Joel Pedraza's awesome humblebundle-python library, available at https://github.com/saik0/humblebundle-python

Requirements

  • Python 3.6
  • requests library
  • pyyaml library

Python Installation

Several features particular to Python v3.6 might have been used during the development of this script. To install Python v3.6 visit https://www.python.org/downloads/ and grab the latest 3.x.x release.

Getting the Prerequisites

From a command prompt, enter:

pip install requests
pip install pyyaml

You'll either be informed that the requirement is already satisfied, or pip will retrieve, install, and configure the libraries for you.

Getting the Installation Files

Perform one of the following actions:

  • Download the zip file from the releases page and unzip it to the directory of your choice.
  • Download the latest code from the master branch as a zip file
  • Check out the source with Git: git clone git://github.com/talonius/hb-downloader.git

Installation

After getting the installation files, you then need to fetch your authentication cookie from humblebundle.com. To do so, navigate there, log in and press F12 to open the developper tools of your browser. Navigate to the cookies tab, and look for a cookie named _simpleauth_sess (on the humblebundle.com domain). Copy the value inside the hb-downloader-settings.yaml file, or specify it on the command line with the "-c" flag. Pay attention that every character is correctly escaped according to the method you choose.

hb-downloader-settings.yaml is the configuration file for the script. It contains all of the information that can be overridden during script execution trough the command line interface. The format (for the data we're concerned with) is:

 <variable name>: <variable value>

download-location is where you want the files to be stored during and after their download from humblebundle.com. This location needs to exist and be writable by the user executing the script. It can be a Linux style directory (/mnt/Mila/Games/Humble Bundle), a UNC share (\\megatron\mila\games\humble bundle) or a Windows drive reference (C:\Users\Username\Downloads):

download-location:  \\megatron\mila\games\humble bundle

Issues

If you encounter any issues or have suggestions, please open a new issue on GitHub.

Known Issues

If you run the script in a terminal window under Windows you may receive:

 UnicodeEncodeError: 'charmap' codec can't encode character...

This only happens if you have an extended character in the name of one of your products. The easiest fix is to export an environment variable so that Python knows the terminal can accept Unicode:

set PYTHONIOENCODING=UTF-8

Usage examples

# Both of these will just download all the stuff according to your config files
hb-downloader.py
hb-downloader.py download

# lists all your products (bundles) and subproducts (the )
hb-downloader.py list

# will download a single bundle either from email link or game-key
hb-downloader.py download-product <get your bundle url from an email>
hb-downloader.py download-product <product key>
