Tips

How to find IDs

See the URL of sticker item pages.

IDs are consecutive

• Official stickers are numbered starting from 1
• Creator\’s stickers are numbered starting from 1000000

Download multiple sticker packages

You can use the CLI with a loop command to download multiple sticker packages.

• Bash

for ((i=1000; i<=1050; i++)); do php download.php $i; done

• PowerShell

for ($i = 1000; $i -lt 1050; $i++) { php download.php $i }

Multiprocessing downloading

You can use xargs to download multiple sticker packages in parallel.

seq 1000 2000 | xargs -L 1 -P 8 php download.php

If you are using PowerShell 7.0 or newer, ForEach-Object -Parallel is a suitable alternative.

2000..3000 | ForEach-Object -ThrottleLimit 8 -Parallel { php download.php $_ }

Notes

• The size of a download page (CGI) may be slightly large because the PHP program outputs a lot of dummy data so that a server sends document data continuously and a browser refreshes the screen.
• The sticker resources are located in public web directories, so anyone can access them easily and legally (for private use only).
• A few packages contain broken PNGs in iPhone stickers, missing important metadata. These stickers can\’t open with most applications, but there is a solution. Open them with macOS\’s Preview application and export as new images. The exported images may be valid forms.
