2. Download images into correct location

    # create current date folder. Correct the date for late night.
    current_date = '0'
    if datetime.datetime.now().hour < 3:
        current_date = date.today()-datetime.timedelta(days=1)
    else:
        current_date = date.today()
    if not os.path.exists(f'assets/{current_date}'):
        os.makedirs(f'assets/{current_date}')

3. Put information into metadata with pyexiv2.

def xmp_edit(illust, img_path):
    img = Image(
        img_path, encoding='utf-8')
    tags = []
    for i in illust.tags:
        if i['translated_name'] == None:
            tags.append(i['name'])
        else:
            tags.append(i['translated_name'])
    print(tags)
    xmp_data = {
        'Xmp.dc.creator': [illust.user.name],
        'Xmp.dc.description': illust.caption,
        'Xmp.dc.title': illust.title,
        # 'Xmp.photoshop.Category': illust.type,
        'Xmp.photoshop.DateCreated': str(illust.create_date),
        'Xmp.photoshop.Source': f'https://www.pixiv.net/artworks/{illust.id}',
        'Xmp.xmp.Label': ','.join(tags),

    }
    img.modify_xmp(xmp_data)
    img.close()

4. Get necessary information from config.json.
