Exporting large albumn via CLI

[chengguangnan]

I have some large vaction album, which has about 8k photos and videos sizing around 100GB, which I want to export and move to my Andorid phone so I can browse fast and offline.

I'm using the web ui to download it. So far chrome made 10+ zip files of about 5GB each.

My question is:

Is there a better way to export a large albumn?

Maybe use the CLI to download an album?

I wrote a script to download album.

Building on @chengguangnan's script, I made a version that is more to my liking. It produces a single output directory for an album and keeps track of already downloaded assets so you can easily resume the download.
