manga-dlp - python script to download mangas
CI/CD
Code Analysis
Meta
Description
A manga download script written in python. It only supports mangadex.org for now. But support for other sites is planned™.
Before downloading a new chapter, the script always checks if there is already a chapter with the same name in the download directory. If found the chapter is skipped. So you can run the script on a schedule to only download new chapters without any additional setup.
The default behaiviour is to pack the images to a cbz archive. If
you just want the folder with all the pictures use the flag --format "".

Contribution / Bugs
For suggestions for improvement, just open a pull request.
If you want to add support for a new site, there is an api template file which you can use. And more infos and tools are in the contrib README.md
Otherwise, you can open an issue with the name of the site which you want support for (not guaranteed to be implemented).
If you encounter any bugs, also just open an issue with a description of the problem.
