A simple Golang program which is able to download private and public slideshare presentation.
Following a simple hack explained in this presentation: http://www.slideshare.net/MalteLandwehr/slideshare-download, I've implemented this simple program in order to let my dear friends to download all the presentation that they want.
I know, I'm a very good man :)
Dependecies
Obviously this programs needs the Golang compiler available on the official website for every operating system.
If you are a developer, you need to install gofpdf (https://godoc.org/code.google.com/p/gofpdf) and goquery (https://github.com/PuerkitoBio/goquery).
HOW TO
First of all you need to build the source code using the standard go build
After that you need to run the file main.go using go run specifing the suggested parameters specified in the USAGE; here there are:
- dir - Directory in which all the files will be saved;
- pdf_path - Path of the generated PDF (default "presentation.pdf");
- url - Insert slide presentation URL.
TODO
It is a really simple program but works pretty well. There is something not well implemented (I'm a little gopher) and I think that I'll update my code in order to improve it. If you find something wrong or something that could be improved feel free to make a pull request or put it in the issue section.
