Look up Web Novels on NovelUpdates #4

Open raisabelatrix opened 2 years ago

raisabelatrix commented 2 years ago

So I'm that person from Discord who suggested adding NovelUpdates support

NU is the largest directory for English translations of Asian novels (https://www.novelupdates.com/). It links to the official sites of fan translators instead of scraping the translations and putting it on their site.

Unfortunately, it doesn't have a public API. Searching here on github, though, will results in some unofficial api's and some scrapers

It seems like novelupdates added scraping protection ~6 months ago, so this probably won't be possible.

I gave it wontfix for now, but I might look into it at a later date
