mal-gtk

GTK+3 Interface for myanimelist.net

Under Development

myanimelist has an API available again, so I will be creating a new "mal-gtk." For now this is an inoperable work-in-progress. My current work is to make a simple CLI tool 'mal-cli' to query the API.

My goals

  • C++20
  • GTK4 interface
  • Flatpak releases
  • Local data store in sqlite
  • Support user profiles (Switch between accounts, or different tabs for different accounts)

Requirements

C++20 compiler, like gcc 10 or clang 10. gtkmm3 libsecret libxml2 libcurl meson ninja ...and a org.freedesktop.secrets provider such as gnome-keyring-daemon.

Building

    # mkdir build
    # cd build
    # meson ..
    # ninja
    # ./src/mal-gtk # run the program
    # sudo ninja install # required.

'ninja install' is required due to needing to install and register the .desktop file. If you don't want to install to /usr/local (and thus require sudo) just use meson configure to set the appropriate prefix and the datadir to ~/.local/share

The desktop file defines the x-scheme-handler/net.talinet.malgtk, this is needed so when you authenticate to myanimelist.net in your browser, the browser can return the OAuth authentication code back to the app.

Future Plans

  • Set a preferred name (Space Brothers instead of Uchuu Kyoudai)
  • Add custom series that aren't in MAL (Akiba Ranger, Game of Thrones)
  • User-guided conflict resolution when local cache is different than MAL
  • Countdown to next airing
  • A .desktop file and icon
  • anidb.net backend (Longer term goal)
  • Get a .rpm and .deb in Debian/Fedora
  • Make builds available for Mac/Windows

Not Planned

  • Updating episode count by monitoring your media player
  • Torrent / Tracker integration (Use flexget)
  • Twitter/Facebook/Twipo integration
  • Interface for MAL.net forums/messages
  • Realtime chat with people watching the same episode
  • Sorting/Renaming files on your hard disk

Competitors

These are the GUI MAL updaters I know about. There's a ton of CLI-only clients out there, but that's not the same thing.

  • Taiga - Mac/Windows Only, but pretty cool. FOSS.
  • Toshocat - Mac/Windows. FOSS.
  • MALU - Windows only bloatware.
  • Trackma - Python, Gtk2. It has a cool curses interface, and connects to more than just MAL. FOSS.
