Table of contents

Features

  • Lua Scrapers!!! You can add any source you want by creating your own (or using someone's else) scraper with Lua 5.1. See mangal-scrapers repository
  • 4 Built-in sources - Mangadex, Manganelo, Manganato & Mangapill
  • 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 ✨ - You already know how to use it! (οΎ‰>Ο‰<)οΎ‰ :qο½₯::ο½₯οΎŸβ€™β˜…,qο½₯:ο½₯οΎŸβ€™β˜†
  • Scriptable - You can use Mangal in your scripts, it's just a CLI app after all. Examples
  • 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¬β€ΏΒ¬ )
  • 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 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 for more information.

For scrapers examples, check the mangal-scrapers repository

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 for examples.

You can test it by running mangal run <filepath>

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.
