Download 3GPP TDocs in batches. More specifically, TDocs related to a particular meeting (e.g. RAN1#11x) can be downloaded in a batch.
The author's job occasionally involves downloading 3GPP TDocs in batches. More specifically, TDocs related to a particular meeting (e.g. RAN1#113, as shown in Fig. 1) need to be downloaded for study. To simplify this process and save time, this python code is written to to release people like author from repetitive manual downloading tasks.
This 3GPP TDoc batch downloader has two key features as shown in Fig. 2:
- Only three configurations/steps are needed before the download starts, namely: ① Specifying the TDocs URL on 3GPP website. ② Setting the local save path of TDocs to be downloaded. ③ Entering the number for each TDoc.
- Failed files report. After the downloading process finishes, it will report the files which encounter failure such that user can copy the failed files list to re-download.
Note:
- The code has been tested only on windows. For other platforms, it may need further development.
- This is an initial version, therefore the code is unpolished. Please feel free to contact the author for bugs or other issues, as well as job-related topics. Hope you enjoy the journey of 3GPP study.
