Can't download ugoira animations

Posted under Bugs & Features

Here's an example I grabbed off the front page: post #5972082

The URL I got for this page when clicking the thumbnail is: post #5972082

There is no longer any download button or link. There is only "View WebM". This link goes to post #5972082 ...which is the same URL I'm already on. It doesn't take me to a .webm file. Right-clicking the image and choosing "Save image as..." will only download a single still frame. So it seems that downloading the whole animation is impossible now, at least without jumping through hoops that 99% of the site's users won't know how to do.

    Looks like a bug if you have it set to always show the original file. The "View WebM" button is supposed to unset the ?original=1 parameter which Danbooru uses to use the ugoira player instead of webm sample, but it's not applicable when you have originals enabled by default.

    Here's a script that adds a WebM download link next to the regular one in the sidebar.

    // ==UserScript==
// @name        Danbooru download ugoira as WebM
// @match       https://*.donmai.us/posts/*
// @grant       none
// @version     0.1.0
// @author      Nameless Contributor
// @description Add a WebM download link in the sidebar for ugoira posts
// ==/UserScript==

if (document.querySelector('.image-container').getAttribute('data-tags').match(/(^|\s)ugoira($|\s)/)) {
  const zipDownloadLink = document.querySelector('li#post-option-download > a');
  const webmFilename = zipDownloadLink.download.replace('zip', 'webm');
  const webmUrl = zipDownloadLink.href.replace('/original/', '/sample/').replace(/_(?=[0-9a-f]{32})/,'_sample-').replace('zip', 'webm');

  const webmDownloadLink = document.createElement('a');
  webmDownloadLink.download = webmFilename;
  webmDownloadLink.href = webmUrl;
  webmDownloadLink.textContent = 'WebM';

  zipDownloadLink.after(' (', webmDownloadLink, ')');
}
