The following changes have been implemented in this PR:

  1. Added ability to download all games from a Chess.com user
  2. Cleaned up the functionality of downloading games from a Lichess user by using the lichess Python package
  3. Deleted .DS_Store since it is unnecessary and already not included in .gitignore
  4. Added to README.md on how to download user game data for Lichess or Chess.com and improved its readability

I had a problem installing this and had to change it to:

Suggested change
colorama==0.4.4
chess==1.5.0
requests==2.20.0
lichess>=0.1.9
colorama==0.4.4
chess==1.5.0
requests==2.27.1
lichess>=0.1.9

This was the error

ERROR: Cannot install -r requirements.txt (line 4) and requests==2.20.0 because these package versions have conflicting dependencies.

The conflict is caused by:
    The user requested requests==2.20.0
    lichess 0.1.9 depends on requests==2.27.1

archive_dates[len(archive_dates) - 1] = archive_dates[
len(archive_dates) - 1].rstrip("\"]}")

I think we will need the max param also for chess.com
One way to do it is use parse the json from https://api.chess.com/pub/player/hikaru/games/2017/04 to count the number of games. and get the pgn with .pgn


archives = http_response.read().decode("utf-8")
archives = archives.replace("{\"archives\":[\"", "\",\"")
archive_dates = archives.split("\",\"" + url_chessdotcom)

Would be better if the dates are sorted from recent to older. So you can always download the latest games by default.
