google-images-download is a Python application for searching and downloading images from Google Images. It functions as both a command-line tool and a library that can be imported into other Python scripts. The system uses Selenium with Chrome to handle JavaScript-heavy Google Images pages, automatically manages chromedriver via webdriver-manager, and supports extensive filtering options (size, color, format, usage rights, etc.). Key features include filename sanitization for cross-platform compatibility, metadata extraction, similar image search, and robust error handling for network issues. The architecture is monolithic with a clear separation between argument parsing, URL building, browser automation, and download execution.
