would you like to support info.txt generated by Hitomi-Downloader？

[lukemin]

I downloaded my comics by Hitomi-Downloader. Would you like to add the function to collect metadata from the info.txt generated by Hitomi-Downloader?

The language of info.txt is as the same as the setting in General Preferences. So for one comic, There may have several different info.txt. Take Chinese and English as example: Chinese : info.txt 图库 id: 1172760

I can take a look at implementing that for you.

Just to be clear, you want to convert a chinese info.txt that was generated by hitomi-downloader from hitomi.la to info.json for use with the lanraragi hdoujin plugin?

Yes， I am using LRR to manage my mangas. But hdoujin plugin does not support info.txt generated by hitomi-downloader. At beginning, I set language of hitomi-downloader to Chinese. Then I found that info.txt generated by hitomi-downloader in English was very similar to Hdoujin plugin format. So I tried to modified the plugin by myself, finally I realized that I have underestimated the difficulties for me who was lack of programing knowledge to do so.

It will be better if you implement a plugin directly for LRR to collect the metainfo from info.txt generated by hitomi-downloader. Thanks a lot.

I do not know perl, so I can't code a new plugin. That is why I made this info.txt conversion script.

I have posted a new file "hitomi-conv-ch.py" that should convert your info.txt files to info.json files so they can be used with lanraragi's hdoujin plugin.

I know it is not the perfect solution, but it does work.

thanks a lot

hitomi-conv-ch.py really worked for me. Could you please update the batchconv.py too? I have more the 7000 mangas right now， It would take me very long time to converter the info.txts one by one manually.

[thebrokenfacade]

I can work on that for you. I will be busy for the next few days, so it may take a while to get that completed.

Thanks a lot. Wish you and your family a happy new year and a nice vacation.
