API to fetch doujins from various sources. Manage users, settings and keep track of some stats.

Doujin Api

This is an API that will fetch doujins from exhentai/e-hentai , store them in a database and post them as articles on telegraph. The reason behind posting to telegra.ph is because of the instant view feature it offers for Telegram, this is the main use of this API for now.

Note : If you plan on using my Telegram Bot, this is the API you need in order to use it.

Note 2 : Posting to telegraph is kind of problematic at times. If it fails once don't even try again, some doujins just don't want to be on there apparently lol, i need to find an alternative. For now I will work on decoupling the /fetch and /random commands from telegraph
