RomM Collection Downloader

Downloads a collection of roms from a RomM instance. I wrote this because the built-in bulk download feature isn't great (it doesn't keep the folder structure and is handled as a separate download for each rom which stops after a dozen or so downloads)

Usage

• Make sure you've got Python installed. I'm using Python 3.10
• Download and edit download_romm_collection.py
  • Change username, password, server_url and collection_id to match your instance. When setting the server_url do NOT add the trailing slash!
• Run python download_romm_collection.py

A folder will be created containing your ROMs. If you are using the default folder structure, it'll look something like this:

roms/
├─ gb/
│  ├─ my_gb_game.gb
│  ├─ my_other_gb_game.gb
├─ nes/
│  ├─ my_nes_game.nes
│  ├─ my_other_nes_game.nes
├─ n64/
│  ├─ my_n64_game.z64
│  ├─ my_other_n64_game.z64

If you are using custom mapping, it'll obviously look different.
