## Installation

You can install the stable release from PyPI.
```bash
$ pip install anime-downloader
```

To install the dev version
```bash
$ pip install -U git+https://github.com/vn-ki/anime-downloader.git
```
*NOTE: You might have to use pip3 depending on your system*

Cloudflare support is currently only available in master. Use the following command to install with cloudflare support.

```bash
pip install -U git+https://github.com/vn-ki/anime-downloader.git#egg=anime-downloader'[cloudflare]'

**IMP**: For cloudflare scraping [cfscrape](https://github.com/Anorov/cloudflare-scrape) is used. It depends on `node-js`. So if you want to use cloudflare, make sure you have node installed.
