CustomIcon / ani-cli

A cli tool to browse and play anime

A cli to browse and watch anime. This tool scrapes the site gogoanime.

After adding way to many features last week, we will begin to slim ani-cli down again this week. The bloated-ani-cli branch is perfect for those that may disagree with that choice.

Usage

Watch anime
  ani-cli (OPTION) (query)

Options
  -u shows anime from history with unwatched episodes
  -n show recent anime
  -h show helptext
  -d download episode
  -H continue where you left off
  -D delete history
  -q set video quality (**best**/worst/360/480/720/1080)
  -k on keypress navigation (previous/next/replay/quit episode)
  --dub play the dub version if present
  -v use VLC as the media player

Add 'h' on beginning for episodes like '6.5' -> 'h6'

Multiple episodes can be chosen given a range
  Choose episode [1-13]: 1 6
  This would choose episodes 1 2 3 4 5 6
