Inb4 JDownloader2 can be used to easily download from zippyshare.
This script is something that I made to get more freedom while downloading from zippyshare.
The script processes the zippyshare download page and extracts the direct link to the file. You can then feed that link to any downloader to start downloading.
It is particularly useful when working on remote servers where you don't have access to gui software.
I personally use it for the same reason. Using this to extract the links and then using aria2 to download the files is a pretty sweet setup.
Everything else is explained in the README.
Try it out. Maybe some of you could find it useful.

Will this work if zippyshare is blocked, e.g. my college?

No. You'll have to use a VPN.

I am hoping that there's a PHP script to get zippyshare direct download links. so there's hope to make a website to do it :D but, thanks :D

It's just regex at the core. Anyone with PHP knowledge can port my code to PHP. And as far as website goes, you could make one using the same logic in javascript. I am going to try that myself.
Edit: The PHP thing wouldn't work due to the way zippyshare works. Refer to known issues on my README. But javascript is doable.

jeez man, it sure seems like it could be much more automated.
[-] Cartmanishere | 3 points
Yes, there's a lot of room for more automation. I just wanted to provide more freedom with this thing. I could rig it to do everything automatically without me having to do anything. In fact, I've done so for my personal use. Even to the basic task of gathering the links from snahp.it site.
And so anyone can use it like it is or to make a more personalized downloading system.

thank you for writing this script and providing the source code under a free software license!

jesus folks. if the source isn't available for jdownloader, you shouldn't run it.

https://redd.it/75p4t8 doesn't have python dependency and downloads right away with wget. Just pass in the shared zippyshare links in a text file.
It's good to have alternatives, so thanks for sharing yours OP.

That's pretty good actually. I did not know about that. Also it would be faster than running it in python.
But it doesn't offer you more freedom. For example, I don't want to download using wget. I would rather use aria2 with any number of parallel downloads. I'm sure I could modify it to my needs except I don't know bash scripting.
