lib-mal
A library for interacting with the MyAnimeList API
Handles authorization, requiring only a client ID and registered redirect urifrom the MyAnimeList API and the user to authorize the application using the URL generated by the MALClient
.
Tokens are cached by default but this can be disabled when creating the client.
API functions are a work in progress
Manga list functions are currently unsupported, but may be implemented in the future
Getting Started
To use lib-mal
you will need an API key from MyAnimeList.net, and a callback URL. An example of how to use lib-mal
might look like this:
use lib_mal::{MALClient, MALError};
use tokio;
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), MALError>{
//this has to exactly match a URI that's been registered with the MAL api
let redirect = [YOUR_REDIRECT_URI_HERE];
//the MALClient will attempt to refresh the cached access_token, if applicable
let client = MALClient::init([YOUR_SECRET_HERE]).await;
let (auth_url, challenge, state) = client.get_auth_parts();
//the user will have to have access to a browser in order to log in and give your application permission
println!("Go here to log in :) -> {}", auth_url);
//once the user has the URL, be sure to call client.auth to listen for the callback and complete the OAuth2 handshake
client.auth(&redirect, &challenge, &state).await.expect("Unable to log in");
//once the user is authorized, the API should be usable
//this will get the details, including all fields, for Mobile Suit Gundam
let anime = client.get_anime_details(80, None).await?;
//because so many fields are optional, a lot of the members of lib_mal::model::AnimeDetails are `Option`s
println!("{}: started airing on {}, ended on {}, ranked #{}", anime.show.title, anime.start_date.unwrap(), anime.end_date.unwrap(), anime.rank.unwrap());
}
