ComicVine API key will need to be configured as well. This is in the plugin's config.



ComicVine API delay is a value in milliseconds between API calls (rate limiting).
Officialy, CV says that as long as you request less than once per second, you will not be put in time-out for spamming them.
There are multiple calls to CV per comic book scrape. Default is 1000ms due to their policy. Change as desired.



FYI in the following url: "https://comicvine.gamespot.com/tales-to-astonish/4050-2008"
The series id is "2008". Similarly for the issue id when you are at a page for an issue.



This plugin is a remake of a previously existing one (https://github.com/Mimerr/comicalibre) All thanks and credit to Mimerr for the original.

I re-made it at a time when the original had fallen out of maintenance and wasn't actually working any more.

I've also added some features I wanted like multi-threading and rate-limiting.

I wrote it for my own use, but if it is of any use to anyone else, great.



Free for all use. Private/public/profit. Hell, claim you wrote it. I don't give a shit, but don't blame me if you don't like it and/or it breaks your computer.
