Planned

My plan is to make this as close as tachiyomi features. Planned features are listed here

Note that this project is still under heavy development, expect breaking changes on any release until hitting 1.0.

Why Rust

Rust is the most loved programming language, I thought this is my chance to learn rust too.

Installation

Prebuilt Binary

Download and run binary from latest release, aside from plugins all dependencies are statically linked.

Plugins

To browse and read manga, tanoshi needs plugins. Plugins can be donwnloaded from here in repo-<your operating system> branch. You can download individual plugins and store in on your selected plugins_path in config.yml, or clone repo branch and copy all of plugins to plugins_path.

Or you can install from web and restart tanoshi afterward.

Account

Tanoshi will create default account with username: admin and password: admin. You can change the password or create new account after login. Default password for new account is tanoshi123 which you can change after login to the account.

Usage

CLI

tanoshi 

USAGE:
    tanoshi [FLAGS] [OPTIONS]

FLAGS:
    -h, --help            Prints help information
    -V, --version         Prints version information

OPTIONS:

Config

Tanoshi default to look configuration in $HOME/.tanoshi/config.yml on macos and linux, C:\Users\<username>\.tanoshi\config.yml on windows. Below is example configuration

# Port for tanoshi to server, default to 80
port: 3030

database_path: /path/to/database

secret: secret
# Absolute path to where plugin is stored
plugin_path: /home/user/.tanoshi/plugins

Build

Tanoshi backend use rust-embed to embed static files to the binary. Because of this, tanoshi-web need to be built first so tanoshi will be able to build successfully.
