Is is possible to modify the way files are downloaded? about anipy-cli HOT 13 CLOSED

So as an example, /anime/<showname>/<season>/<episode>

from anipy-cli.

Yes that is possible,

1. open your config file, located here: anipy-cli --config-path
2. modify download_name_format like this:

download_name_format: '{episode_number}'

from anipy-cli.

:O

from anipy-cli.

So as an example, /anime///

you can not sperate the showname and seasons, you will always have the season in the showname. For example "Mushoku Tensei Season 2", because that is how they are named on the site we scrape.

Edit: It can only be /anime/<showname + season number>/<episode>

from anipy-cli.

oh yeah that is fair, I somewhat bypass it with the following:
download_name_format: '{episode_number}. {show_name} - ({type})'

from anipy-cli.

Since I use Jellyfin to watch everything

from anipy-cli.

Maybe try activating this option, this should merge the different seasons into one show, if they are all recognised by jellyfin/your plugins

from anipy-cli.

Oh that works how I intended it to, the episode number just needs to be first

from anipy-cli.

I just work the location of the season into the command
anipy-cli -D --location "/opt/anime/storage/My Hero Academia/Season 2" --ffmpeg

from anipy-cli.

Well I guess that works. If it works for you, just close the issue!

from anipy-cli.

Is it possible to remove the additional folder it creates?

from anipy-cli.

Or is the /anime/<showname + season number>/ a requirement?

from anipy-cli.

Well, that is how it currently works. I guess I could put it on my todo list to think about this, especially when using the --ocation argument.
But you can always work around this with some bash script.
How about running something like this after the download command:

#!/bin/bash

# $1 = path where the anime got downloaded (this is the first argument)

# Move all files from the sub folder in the parent one
mv "$1"/*/* "$1"
# Remove the subfolder
rm -R -- "$1"/*/

Save this somewhere to mover.sh and do chmod +x mover.sh
So with this you could then run (I am using the -s flag here to automate it even more, you may omit it):
anipy-cli -D --search "my hero academia 2:1-12:sub" --location "/opt/anime/storage/My Hero Academia/Season 2" --ffmpeg && ./path-to-mover.sh "/opt/anime/storage/My Hero Academia/Season 2"

Edit: fix the script

from anipy-cli.
