Introduction

This is a fork of Dink4n's ani-cli, which itself is a fork of pystardust's old-ani-cli

This fork is a wrapper around a modified version of ani-cli and uses 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 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.

It is intended to be called from the wrapper script aniwrapper, however using the ani-cli script itself is also possible

Setup

Dependencies

These are the minimum dependences required to run aniwrapper

  • grep
  • curl
  • sed
  • mpv
    • skip-intro.lua (installed in setup.sh)
  • ffmpeg
  • rofi
    • meh.rasi (installed in setup.sh)
  • sqlite3

Arch Linux

pacman -S --needed grep curl sed mpv ffmpeg rofi sqlite3

Installing

After cloning and switching into the aniwrapper directory, run the following commands to set up and install the script

chmod +x setup.sh
./setup.sh && sudo make install

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
