[Feature Request] Route for searching by AniList ID

[RadianttK]

Feature

• Route for searching by AniList ID
  • Automatically redirects to the corresponding Jimaku entry
  • e.g. for the AniList URL anilist.co/anime/145728/-MERCHANT-MEETS-THE-WISE-WOLF/:
    • jimaku.cc/anilist?id=145728 -> jimaku.cc/entry/2272

Motivation

• This would enable creating a Tampermonkey script that adds a button to AniList anime pages that takes you directly to the corresponding Jimaku entry (if it exists)

This is possible via the API. It's /api/entries/search?anilist_id=.... Is that not enough for the use case?

[RadianttK]

Oh, interesting. I didn't know the website had an API. Is there a page documenting the API endpoints available?

I tried using the one you mentioned though, and got the following error:

{"error":"unauthorized","code":7}

The documentation is on https://jimaku.cc/api/docs

I have it linked in the footer and the account page.

[RadianttK]

Thanks! That looks like it would work for the purposes of a Tampermonkey script.

@RadianttK Could you share the script when you're done? E.g. on greasyfork?

[RadianttK]

Hey @conquerist, I just finished the script and uploaded it to Greasy Fork here. Let me know if there are any issues or if you have any questions!

[conquerist]

@RadianttK Using Greasemonkey I had to replace GM_setValue by GM.setValue and the same for getValue, then it worked perfectly... Thanks!

[RadianttK]

Oh, interesting! I never thought to test with Greasemonkey as I assumed all Tampermonkey scripts were compatible with Greasemonkey. Thanks for letting me know, @conquerist !

Looks like GM. is compatible with both Tampermonkey and Greasemonkey, so pushed out a quick update to fix the issue.
