Hello, everyone !

I have a CLI (Command-Line Interface) downloader tool that you can try on. It can download manga, chapter, list. Just type the url, run the app and you're good to go !

The application is written in Python, so it should run in multi platform. Github link: https://github.com/mansuf/mangadex-downloader

Currently (v2.5.4 as i writing this), the tool offers:
  • Download manga, chapter, list directly from URL or unique ID (UUIDv4)
  • Download manga in different languages
  • Download manga or lists from user library (saved manga, saved lists, followed lists)
  • Download random and seasonal manga
  • Download manga or chapter as Comic Book (.cbz or .cb7), PDF, EPUB, or raw images
  • Download manga in each chapters, each volumes, or wrap all chapters into single file
  • Optional quality switching images (original or compressed)
  • Authentication (with cache) support
  • Batch download support (offline or online file)
  • Search (with filters) and download manga
  • Filter chapters with scalantion groups or users
  • Configuration support, you don't have to write so many command-line options with this
  • Groups or users blacklist support, chapters won't be downloaded if blacklisted groups or users has been found
  • Tags blacklist support, manga won't be downloaded if blacklisted tags has been found
  • Respect API rate limit, so you won't get banned while downloading
And many more, for more information you can see documentation here -> https://mangadex-downloader.rtfd.io

If you have any suggestions, ideas, or maybe a question, you can comment in this thread. Thank you !

Note: I don't have any interest make this as an GUI app, i suck at UI.

Have you used hakuneko ? https://hakuneko.download/ It's got all the bells n whistles.
Yeah, i mean hakuneko has different sources while my app support MangaDex only. And hakuneko is a GUI app while my app is a CLI. But my app has specific features for MangaDex that hakuneko doesn't have (like i listed in the thread).

Each applications has it's own pros and cons.

I am all for doing your own thing. For my use HakuNeko is a 15 pound sledgehammer for a ball peen job. That's the Gallagher in me coming out.

Count me in, this tool is amazing. I have used hakuneko before and i need to copy and paste the manga i want to download from my library, which is kinda annoying for me.

Look up AutoHotKey. Automates all the key presses. I can give you the key press script too, If you can't figure it out.
