Support for Anime-Vice database. #11

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
On the surface, it seems like it would be pretty easy to extend the scraper
so that it supports the "Anime Vice" database, which would allow people to
use the script with their manga collections.

The api seems like it would be identical to the comic vine api that we
already use, since anime vice is a sister site to comic vine.   

Unfortunately, anime vice does not yet allow web access to their database
the way comic vine does.  So this feature will have to wait until the anime
vice database is available over the web.  :(

Do you have any idea when that will happen?
Also just a quick thank you for making this scraper, I'm using it like crazy 
right now ;)

Hi, glad to hear you're enjoying the scraper!

Whisky Media (the company that owns Comic Vine and Anime Vice) is notoriously 
slow when it comes to modifying and updating their public servers, so it may be 
some time before this feature becomes possible.   I still have outstanding bug 
reports that I registered with them 2 years ago. :(

Would this help http://api.animevice.com/ ?

Looks like they are planning on providing API access, which is a promising 
first step.  Clicking on the documentation link at the site doesn't work, 
though.  Not sure if that's a temporary problem, or if they just haven't 
actually made the api available yet.

apparently the api site works again. It would be really great to have a 
scrapper who can deal with comics and mangas

The API site for ComicVine is working again, but Anime Vice has never actually 
provided a proper API to allow anyone to access their data publicly.
