Add support for Kavita naming convention #88

Closed Kisaragi-ng closed 8 months ago

Kisaragi-ng commented 1 year ago

The idea

If possible, I'd like to request that the output name follows the Kavita naming convention, similar to how magadex's --save-as "tachiyomi" works.

In general, Kavita uses the following format:

Library Root
  ┖── Series Name
      ┖── Series Name.cbz

You can find more information in their documentation here.

I've been using your work for a while to download mangadex to tachiyomi, but currently, I'm using Kavita on my desktop. It would be really helpful if this downloader also supported their naming conventions.

Why this feature should be added to the app ?

Tachiyomi is widely used on mobile devices, but for desktop platforms, I believe Kavita is more user-friendly.

Yes it's possible with --filename and --path options with placeholders support. But, this features are not ready yet, and i really don't have free time to working on it. See #80 for progress

Btw, do not use --save-as tachiyomi anymore, it's deprecated and you should use --write-tachiyomi-info

Hello, sorry for taking so long, i got too busy in real life things.

Anyways, this feature has been added in v3.0.0 branch (commit https://github.com/mansuf/mangadex-downloader/commit/3698cf10aa22c14e1225000bffbff4f2a3b55c2e)

You can start trying it now by installing development version (v3.0.0 branch)

Installation with git + pip:

pip uninstall mangadex-downloader
pip install git+https://github.com/mansuf/mangadex-downloader.git@3698cf10aa22c14e1225000bffbff4f2a3b55c2e

The download files are available in "artifacts" section

https://github.com/mansuf/mangadex-downloader/actions/runs/7249594589/

You can now customize path to kavita naming convetion, like the example below:

Example usage:

# This will download to directory "/home/sussyuser/Library Root/Some manga title/"
# with filename "Some manga title Vol. 0 Ch. 12.cbz"
mangadex-dl "URL" --path "/home/sussyuser/Library Root/{manga.title}" -f cbz --filename-chapter "{chapter.manga_title} Vol.{chapter.volume} Ch.{chapter.chapter}{file_ext}"

For more information about path placeholders, you can read the documentation here -> https://mangadex-dl.mansuf.link/en/v3.0.0/cli_ref/path_placeholders.html
