rakuyomi: a manga reader for KOReader

[hanatsumi]

Hi everyone, I'd like to show something I've been working on the last few months:

rakuyomi is a manga reader plugin for KOReader. It allows one to search, download and read manga from a variety of sources, tracking read chapters, and a simple library system.

Installation and configuration instructions, as well as the downloads/source code can be found in the project's GitHub page. Please report any issues/suggestions in the issues/replies!

That’s cool!
Can I add MangaSee as a source?

MangaSee and Bato.to have caused me problems of not being able to find manga, so be careful with these sources.

Thanks!

The MangaSee source is a quite unusual one, as the plugin that implements it does quite a bit of processing - which makes it too slow to run on e-reader devices. Most of the other ones should work fine.

The Bato.to source should work, I've pushed a few updates to the plugin that should help with slow websites and some overall performance improvements; please give it a try if you want to

Thanks for fixing it, I love using that site. By the way, I would like to report a problem that caught my eye; When I save any manga to the library from different sources, there is no problem, they all appear in my library, but when I select the remove option, first the whole library page appears blank, but when I close and open the application, everything is as before, so I cannot remove any manga from my library.

Also, this is not a bug, but is it possible to add an option to sort manga chapters from old to new? Thanks again.

I've pushed a new release with a fix for the remove from library bug; it should work correctly now.

I'll look into adding some sorting options soon

Pushed an update that allows changing the sorting mode; just go on the top-left menu on the library -> Settings -> Chapter Sorting Mode.

Really cool idea. Is there a chance to get a Pocketbook plugin?
I tried the Kindle Plugin, but it crashed KOReader :/.

Can you attach your crash.log file? Theoretically the Kindle build should work, but there might have some differences between the devices.

There's also this GitHub issue about a Pocketbook port, if you'd rather upload/post things there
