Was just passing by and saw deeTrix's ARTLeech topic which reminded me that I still had an old project laying around that was collecting dust. Since I abandoned it ages ago and usually mess with C++/Qt these days I figured I might as well release the source code so others can benefit, use, and/or learn from it. So, enjoy :).

Repo:

https://github.com/Hyperz/SharpLeech

Releases:

https://github.com/Hyperz/SharpLeech/releases

Notes:


  • The code is OLD and a lot of it wasn't written "by the book" so don't expect proper design patterns.
  • Support for newer forum types can be added trough DefaultSiteTypes.cs in the Engine project.
  • Even though it's old, AFIAK it is still the fastest and most feature rich forum leecher. All that it really needs is support for newer forum software.
  • Don't count on me for support, this project is abandoned.

Probably not downloading this but from the screenshot I see you've used htmlagilitypack (which is my favorite!). Just nice to see someone using an actual parser for once instead of shit regex patterns. Good work ;)

You'll get useless regex if you're lucky. Most self proclaimed programmers don't make it past the webbrowser control. But yeah HAP is great. Been using it since '08, it hasn't failed on me yet.
 
No, it leeches from one site directly to another. But making it save to a text file would be a really easy change for anyone with basic C# knowledge.

Thanks for sharing this tool but where can i download exe file? :)

I wasn't sharing the tool but its source code. Anyway: https://www.dropbox.com/s/urclao80tqcb50g/SharpLeech_2.0.0_RC1.zip

Be aware that this hasn't been updated in ages. It may not work on forums using newer forum software and the default plugins/sitereaders are most likely outdated.
 
What version of visual studio did you use when you developed this app?
I'm asking 'cause i cant load solution on VS13

It's a VS2010 project using .NET 4.0. I think you should be able to use newer VS versions to convert the project. Or at least, that used to be the case in the past. Not sure if that's still the case these days.
