A simple tool that will download all the emojis from all the Discord servers you are in.
One day I just woke up and decided I was in way too many servers. I hit the server cap (100 servers) three times already.
I was in most of these servers for emotes, so I never spoke in any of them, and the only thing these servers generated was spam and traffic. Furthermore, most of these servers had maybe 1-2 good emotes of all the ones they offered, so I decided there was little no point in sticking around.
The idea was to download all the emotes, sift through them, pick the interesting ones, then create enough emote-only servers with just the good ones.
I am one of the developers of DSharpPlus (which this tool uses). This tool simply extracts the user token from running Discord instance, then logs in using said token. Probes all the guilds for available emotes, then downloads them all.
Emote download happens in parallel. The tool will spawn twice as many download threads as there are logical processors available on the machine (so on a 2 core, 4 thread machine, it will use 8 threads).
The tool has some minimal requirements. First and foremost, it was only tested on Windows 10 x64, it is not guaranteed it will run on other tools.
You will also need a running Discord instance.
Complete list of requirements is as follows:
- .NET Core 2.0 Runtime (other platforms, make sure you're downloading .NET Core 2.0 runtime).
- Running Discord instance. Stable, PTB, Canary, or Development should work, but it was only tested against Stable. Furthermore, the application picks the first Discord instance available, which means when multiple instances are running (e.g. stable and canary), the tool will pick one nondeterministically.
- Hard drive space (duh).
The download and token extraction process themselves are cross-platform. The Discord instance location prcess potentially isn't.
In order to use the tool, download and extract
it first. Then run the scavenge.bat script. The tool will begin operation. The emotes will be downloaded to emotes
directory where the tool is located.
When the tool is done, the target directory will contain directories, which correspond to guilds which the particular emotes were obtained from. Inside will be emote files, file name of each will correspond to the name of the emote.
In the event you want to download the emotes somewhere else, you need to open up command prompt, and then navigate to
the location of the tool. Then simply invoke dotnet EmoteScavenger.dll "path/to/target/directory". The tool will
download all emoji to the target directory.
If you want to make changes of the tool or simply don't trust the provided binary, you can build the tool yourself. You will need some tools.
- Visual Studio 2017. Make sure to install .NET Core cross-platform development workload.
- .NET Core SDK 2.0 or newer.
- .NET Core 2.0 Runtime (see above link).
- Git for Windows.
- DSharpPlus nightly MyGet feed in NuGet sources (https://www.myget.org/F/dsharpplus-nightly/api/v3/index.json).
- Clone the repository using Git.
- Open the solution In Visual Studio.
- Select Release configuration.
- Hit Ctrl+Shift+B to build the solution.
- When the build is successful, select EmoteScavenger project from the Solution Explorer.
- Go to Build menu, and select Publish EmoteScavenger.
- When the publish is completed, your artifacts will be available in
<solution directory>/EmoteScavenger/bin/Release/PublishOutput.
- Clone the repository using Git.
- Open command line and navigate to the directory you cloned the solution to.
- Restore all NuGet packages using
dotnet restore -c Release. - Build the solution in Release configuration
dotnet build -c Release. - Navigate to EmoteScavenger project directory.
- Publish the project in Release configuration
dotnet publish -c Release. - Your artifacts are available in
<soluction directory>/EmoteScavenger/bin/Release/netcoreapp2.0/publish.
