Additional functionality/ optimisations. about inflatabledonkey HOT 3 OPEN

Would you be able to implement an iCloud Photo Library downloader / engine? It would be huge to be able to implement that into other projects as well as having that power programatically.

@manwhoami I have a hacked version of InflatableDonkey that does just that, but along with a number of other private tools I don't have plans to release it. I just don't have the time to clean up, debug and maintain additional projects. I'm also acutely aware that a lot of my work is ending up in commercial projects and not in open source projects. This is the reason I haven't released my C++ research tools/ prototypes that work with Apple dlls directly even though they provide a very simple and robust platform specific solution.

If someone starts work in earnest on porting InflatableDonkey to Python or another language, as an open source project mind you, then I'll assist and release the API calls required when the CloudKit/ chunk engine code base becomes functional. However to be honest, someone who pulls that off should have no issue in figuring out what to do themselves.

Sorry for the cynicism.

@manwhoami However, if by some miracle I do have free time over the new few months then I'll de-construct InflatableDonkey cleanly into it's core libraries: CloudKit, PCS, chunking etc. These can be used to do what you want along with other things like iCloud documents.
