## Features

__Lua 5.1__. See [mangal-scrapers repository](https://github.com/metafates/mangal-scrapers)
- __4 Built-in sources__ - [Mangadex](https://mangadex.org), [Manganelo](https://m.manganelo.com/wwww), [Manganato](https://manganato.com) & [Mangapill](https://mangapill.com)
- __Download & Read Manga__ - I mean, it would be strange if you couldn't, right?
- __Caching__ - Mangal will cache as much data as possible, so you don't have to wait for it to download the same data over and over again.
- __4 Different export formats__ - PDF, CBZ, ZIP and plain images
- __TUI β¨__ - You already know how to use it! (οΎ>Ο<)οΎ :ｑο½₯::ο½₯οΎββ
,ｑο½₯:ο½₯οΎββ
- __Scriptable__ - You can use Mangal in your scripts, it's just a CLI app after all. [Examples](https://github.com/metafates/mangal/wiki/Inline-mode)
- __History__ - Resume your reading from where you left off!
- __Fast?__ - YES.
- __Monolith__ - ZERO runtime dependencies. Even Lua is built in. Easy to install and use.
- __Cross-Platform__ - Linux, macOS, Windows, Termux, even your toaster. (Β¬βΏΒ¬ )
- __Anilist integration__ - Mangal will collect additional data from Anilist and use it to improve your reading experience. It can also sync your progress!

## Custom scrapers
TLDR; To browse and install a custom scraper
from [mangal-scrapers repository](https://github.com/metafates/mangal-scrapers) run
mangal sources install
Mangal has a Lua5.1 VM built-in + some useful libraries, such as headless chrome, http client, html parser and so on...
Check the [defined modules](https://github.com/metafates/mangal-lua-libs) for more information.
For scrapers examples, check the [mangal-scrapers repository](https://github.com/metafates/mangal-scrapers)
### Creating a custom scraper
This command will create `example.lua` file in the `mangal where --sources` directory.
mangal sources gen --name example --url https://example.com
Open the file and edit it as you wish.
Take a look at the comments for more information.
See [mangal-scrapers repository](https://github.com/metafates/mangal-scrapers) for examples.
You can test it by running `mangal run `
It should automatically appear in the list of available scrapers.

## Anilist
Mangal also supports integration with anilist.
Besides fetching metadata for each manga when downloading,
mangal can also mark chapters as read on your Anilsit profile when you read them inside mangal.
