Mylar is an automated Comic Book (cbr/cbz) downloader program heavily-based on the Headphones template and logic (which is also based on Sick-Beard).
|
|
|
|
Yes, it does work, yes there are still bugs, and for that reason I still consider it the definition of an 'Alpha Release'.
|
|
|
|
-REQUIREMENTS-
|
|
- At least version 2.7.9 Python for proper usage (3.x is not supported).
|
|
|
|
** NEW **
|
|
You will need to get your OWN ComicVine API Key for this application to fully work.
|
|
Failure to do this will result in limited (to No) ability when using Mylar.
|
|
|
|
To start it, type in 'python Mylar.py' from within the root of the mylar directory. Adding a --help option to the command will give a list of available options.
|
|
|
|
Once it's started, navigate to localhost:8090 in your web browser (or whatever IP the machine that has Mylar is on).
|
|
|
|
Here are some helpful hints hopefully:
|
|
- Add a comic (series) using the Search button, or using the Pullist.
|
|
- Make sure you specify Comic Location in the Configuration!
|
|
(Mylar auto-creates the Comic Series directories under the Comic Location. The directory is displayed on the Comic Detail page).
|
|
- If you make any Configuration changes, shutdown Mylar and restart it or else errors will occur - this is an outstanding bug.
|
|
- You need to specify a search-provider in order to perform any search-related function!
|
|
- In the Configuration section, if you enable 'Automatically Mark Upcoming Issues as Wanted' it will mark any NEW comic from the Pullist that is on your 'watchlist' as wanted.
|
|
- There are times when adding a comic it will fail with an 'Error', submit a bug and it will be checked out (usually an easy fix).
|
|
- For the most up-to-date build, use the Development build. Master doesn't get updated as frequently (> month), and Development is usually fairly stable.
|
|
|
|
The Mylar Forums are also online @ http://forum.mylarcomics.com

|
|
Please submit issues via git for any outstanding problems that need attention.

Post-Processing
|
|
(Post-Processing is similar to the way SickBeard handles it.)
|
|
|
|
- Within the post-processing/ folder of Mylar there are 2 files (autoProcessComics.py and autoProcessComics.cfg.sample)
|
|
- Within the post-processing/ folder of Mylar there are 2 directories (nzbget, sabnzbd) and within each of these client folders, is a ComicRN.py script that is to be used with the respective download client.
|
|
- Edit (put in your Mylar host, port, login and password (if required), and ssl(0 for no, 1 for yes) and rename the autoProcessComics.cfg.sample to autoProcessComics.cfg.
|
|
- Copy autoProcessComics.py, autoProcessComics.cfg and the respective ComicRN.py into your SABnzbd/NZBGet scripts directory (or wherever your download client stores its scripts).
|
|
- Make sure SABnzbd/NZBGet is setup to have a 'comic-related' category that points it to the ComicRN.py script that was just moved.
|
|
- Ensure in Mylar that the category is named exactly the same.
|
|
|
|
Renaming
|
|
- You can now specify Folder / File Formats.
|
|
- Folder Format - if left blank, it will default to just using the default Comic Directory [ and creating subdirectories beneath in the format of ComicName-(Year) ]
|
|
You can do multi-levels as well - so you could do $Publisher/$Series/$Year to have it setup like DC Comics/Batman/2011 (as an example)
|
|
- File Format - if left blank, Mylar will use the original file and not rename at all. This includes replacing spaces, and zero suppression (both renaming features).
|
|
- Folder Format IS used on every Add Series / Refresh Series request. Enabling Renaming has no bearing on this, so make sure if you're not using the default, that it's what you want.
