wMAL aims to be a lightweight and simple but feature-rich program for Unix based systems for fetching, updating and using data from personal lists hosted in different media tracking websites like MyAnimeList, Melative or VNDB.

• Manage local list and synchronize when necessary, useful when offline
• Manage multiple accounts on different sites like MyAnimeList, Melative or VNDB.
• Support for several mediatypes depending on the site (like VNs, anime, manga, LNs)
• Multiple user interfaces (Qt, GTK, curses, command-line)
• Detection of running media player, updates list if necessary
• Ability to launch media player for a requested media in the list and update list if necessary
• Highly scalable, easy to code new interfaces and support for other sites

CLI

The documentation for wMAL is available on ReadTheDocs.

• Python 2.6/2.7
• lsof - for the media player detection tracker.
• (Optional) PyQt - for the Qt Interface
• (Optional) PyGTK (python-gtk2) - for the GTK interface.
• (Optional) Urwid (python-urwid) - for the curses/urwid interface.
• (Optional/Recommended) PIL (python-imaging) - for showing preview images in the Qt/GTK interfaces.

Like any Python program, run the setup.py installation script:

# python setup.py install

Then you can run the program with the interface you like.

$ wmal
$ wmal-curses (requires urwid)
$ wmal-gtk (requires pygtk)

Alternatively, you can just run the scripts directly from the bin/ folder.

A configuration file will be created in ~/.wmal/config.json, make sure to fill in the directory where you store your video files and other settings. Details about what each option does can be done here:

https://github.com/z411/wmal-python/wiki/Configuration-File

Alternatively, the GTK interface provides a Settings panel, found in Options -> Global Settings...

The code is hosted as a git repository in github:
