Python script to download all Springer books released for free during Covid

Actually I had done this:<p><pre><code> wget -O ~&#x2F;Downloads&#x2F;books.csv &#x27;https:&#x2F;&#x2F;link.springer.com&#x2F;search&#x2F;csv?facet-content-type=%22Book%22&amp;package=mat-covid19_textbooks&amp;fbclid=IwAR14_P6ZT4OoaHCYpxQCu_NtGLENhKOhfVD-b648OmS3TFM39gDZEhkDBS0&amp;facet-language=%22En%22&amp;sortOrder=newestFirst&amp;showAll=true&#x27; &amp;&amp; awk &#x27;BEGIN { FS = &quot;,&quot; }; { gsub(&quot;book&quot;,&quot;content&#x2F;pdf&quot;,$9) ; if ($9 ~ &#x2F;^&quot;http&#x2F;) { print &quot;wget --content-disposition -P ~&#x2F;Downloads&#x2F;springer &quot; $9; } }&#x27; &lt; ~&#x2F;Downloads&#x2F;books.csv | bash</code></pre>

This is a nice tool and the Dockerfile is quite handy, but my guess is these books probably have a download limit per book since more used to be available.<p>Maybe use the script&#x27;s category or individual book modes to ensure more people can get access to them?

This is pretty useful; thanks for sharing.<p>There&#x27;s some good books I always wanted to take a look, but wasn&#x27;t ready to commit; this will help me decide. Smart move by Springer.
