Overview

This is a CLI tool to search for images with Google Reverse Image Search.

Description

or

Use go get.

$ go install github.com/tanaikech/goris@latest

IMPORTANT

20230406: In the current stage, the specification for running the reverse image search was changed at Google side. I could modify the script for searching the images using an image URL. But, I have still not modified the script for searching the images using an image file. I'm sorry for this. Now, I am analyzing. When I could do it, I would like to modify this. So, in the current stage, please use the following command.

$ goris s -u [image URL]

Usage

Search images from an image file. You can select number of output URLs using -n. The maximum number of output URLs is 100. (The current default value is 10. So when -n is not used, 10 URLs are returned.)

$ goris s -f [image file] -n 50

Search images from an image URL.

$ goris s -u [image URL]

Download searched images from an image file. Following sample downloads 10 searched images using an image file.

$ goris s -f [image file] -d -n 10

Retrieve web pages with matching images on Google top page. When this is not used, images are retrieved.

$ goris s -u [image URL] -w

$ goris s -f [image file] -w
