# Introduction
This is a fork of [Dink4n's ani-cli](https://github.com/Dink4n/ani-cli),
which itself is a fork of
pystardust's [old-ani-cli](https://github.com/pystardust/ani-cli/tree/old-ani-cli)
This fork is a wrapper around a modified version of ani-cli
and uses [rofi](https://github.com/davatorium/rofi) to gather information and control the program
In addition to `rofi`, I've also changed the way saving history works by
integrating a local [sqlite3](https://www.sqlite.org/index.html) database with a table for
search and watch history
It is built around Dink4n's fork of ani-cli since at the time of
creation, this is the version that has downloading working correctly
This tool scrapes the site [gogoanime](https://gogoanime.vc).
It is intended to be called from the wrapper script `aniwrapper`,
however using the ani-cli script itself is also possible

# Setup
These are the minimum dependences required to run `aniwrapper`
- grep
- curl
- sed
- mpv
- ffmpeg
- rofi
- meh.rasi (installed in setup.sh)
- sqlite3
## Skip Intro Script
_This repo comes packaged with and will install the
[skip-intro.lua](https://github.com/rui-ddc/skip-intro)
script for MPV during setup if it is not already installed_
The script is activated with the `TAB` key
Upon activation, the skip-intro script will try its best to skip the
episode introduction by skipping to the next moment of silence in the video
- If the video has not pre-loaded past the introduction, the script will not
know what to do. Press `TAB` again to stop the script until the video
has loaded enough, or just manually skip past the intro.
- If the video does not have a pause in audio (or a significant enough drop in
audio volume) between the end of the introduction and the beginning of the
video/episode, then the script may fail and skip to a random point in the
video
## Installing
### Arch Linux
`aniwrapper-git` is available on the AUR for Arch users
```sh
paru -S aniwrapper-git
or
yay -S aniwrapper-git
```
### Manual Install
To install manually, make sure the dependencies are installed first
### Install the Dependencies
```sh
# Arch
pacman -S --needed grep curl sed mpv ffmpeg rofi sqlite3
# Debian
apt install grep curl sed mpv ffmpeg rofi sqlite3
```

# Aniwrapper Menus
There are several menus used to drive the program forward
## Search Anime
The first menu consists of a search box and a list of anime titles corresponding to past valid searches. Choose an option from the menu, or enter in a unique search query to search for a new anime. The result from this will be used to query against `gogoanime` and return similar named anime
## Anime Selection
The next menu is where you select the anime to watch from a narrowed down list. Elements that have a blue border and text color indicate which anime have been watched before
- _In the future, I'd like to make it so if you select an option from the list of previously searched anime, then it will skip this and go on to episode selection_
## Episode Selection
In the episode selection menu, you can select an individual episode from the list, provide a single episode, or provide a range of episodes as two space separated integers `start_episode end_episode`. Like in the previous menu, any element with a blue border and text-color indicates that episode has been watched before
# Usage
## aniwrapper
# Launch aniwrapper menu
aniwrapper
### Option 1: Streaming
- [click here](https://imgur.com/nLjqLCL.gif) for an example showing streaming a new anime
- [click here](https://imgur.com/nI455zI.gif) for an example showing streaming a previously watched anime
Streaming is the default option for the `aniwrapper` script and will prompt you with each of the menus specified in the _[aniwrapper Menus](#aniwrapper-menus)_ section
### Option 2: Download
The default download location is `$HOME/Videos/sauce` and will be chosen as the download directory unless otherwise specified
After specifying the download directory (or leaving it blank for the default), you will be presented with the menus from the _[aniwrapper Menus](#aniwrapper-menus)_ section for selecting the anime and episode(s) to download
### Option 3: Continue
The continue option queries the `sqlite3` history databse and pulls the list of distinct anime names from the `watch_history` table. Select an option from the list and the most recently watched episode of the selected anime will play
### Option 4: Playlist
_description coming soon_
### Option 5: Sync History
This option allows you to sync your search/watch history across devices. It queries the database on the remote machine and inserts/updates the necessary rows
At the moment, the requirements are as follows:
- You must be able to `ssh` into the remote machine
- The username must be the same across both devices
- The `history.sqlite3` file must be in the default location: `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/aniwrapper/history.sqlite3`
