pycmpdl

A Curse Modpack downloader.

This program was inspired by Vazkiis CMPDL.

Usage

If you want to download a modpack just go to the curse website and copy the link of the project or of a specific file and use the downloader like this:

python pycmpdl.py <link_to_modpack>

Or if you want a MultiMC instance:

python pycmpdl.py -m <link_to_modpack>

For server instances please use the link to a server zip file (can be found on the curse website: "Files" > klick on the desired version > "Additional Files") and specify the "-s" option:

python pycmpdl.py -s <link_to_server_zip>

If no server files are provided try the following command (with the link to the modpack like above) and delete clientside mods manually:

python pycmpdl.py -s <link_to_modpack>

Future plans

Add an option to ignore unwanted mods.
