Manga Downloader

This app downloads manga from websites like mangadex and stores them into cbz files, so you can read them with your favorite ereader or reading app.

Supported sites

It may support even more sites of which I'm not aware. If you find a site that is not supported, feel free to open a new issue or a PR with the implementation.

Usage

Only one param is required:

manga-downloader [URL]

The URL must be a series index file (not an individual chapter).

When only specifying the URL, it would ask you if you want to download all chapters.

Note: you must specify y in order to download them, its default behavior is set to "no".

You can also specify the range beforehand, the range allows you setting chapters by ranges (i.e. 1,3,5-10):

manga-downloader https://inmanga.com/ver/manga/One-Piece/dfc7ecb5-e9b3-4aa5-a61b-a498993cd935 1-50
# This would download One Piece chapters 1 to 50 into our current folder

In some sites, like mangadex, it may find multiple results for the same chapter, given the different languages it's translated to. In these cases, every coincidence will be downloaded into different files, but you can force a single language to be downloaded by using --language:

manga-downloader --language es https://mangadex.org/title/a1c7c817-4e59-43b7-9365-09675a149a6f/one-piece 1-10
# would download One Piece chapters 1 to 10 in spanish

Arguments and params are not positional, you can use them in any order:

manga-downloader 1-10 https://mangadex.org/title/a1c7c817-4e59-43b7-9365-09675a149a6f/one-piece --language es
# exactly the same as the previous example, only changing params order

Bundling

You can bundle all the downloaded chapters into a single file by using the --bundle arg:

manga-downloader https://inmanga.com/ver/manga/One-Piece/dfc7ecb5-e9b3-4aa5-a61b-a498993cd935 1-8 --bundle
# would download one piece chapters 1 to 8 and bundle them into a single file

Help

Use the help command to see all the available options:

manga-downloader help

Installation

First download your desired version from the releases section.

After you downloaded and unarchived it, you can start using it in that folder:

./manga-downloader URL range

For Windows users would be:

.\manga-downloader URL range

If you want the binary to be accessible from your terminal in whatever path you might be, you should ensure to place the binary on a PATH defined folder (or add the folder where you downloaded manga-downloader to your PATH env var).

Places where you can put the binary and have it accessible system-wide:

Linux and Mac: /usr/local/bin
Windows: C:\Windows\System32

Windows

So if you're a windows user and place the .exe file inside C:\Windows\System32 you'll be able to call the program wherever you want from:

C:\Users\elboletaire\Desktop>manga-downloader https://mangadex.org/title/e7eabe96-aa17-476f-b431-2497d5e9d060/black-clover 1-346

The above command would download Black Clover chapters 1 to 346 to the Desktop folder (since that's the current directory).

Mac

Mac users will need to either add the binary to the unsigned apps whitelist, or entirely disable Gatekeeper:

sudo spctl --master-disable

Othwerise you'll see an error because the binary is unsigned.

Using Docker

You can also use manga-downloader directly via docker like so:

docker run --rm -it -v $PWD:/downloads elboletaire/manga-downloader --help

Note the -v $PWD:/downloads param, that's required in order to get the downloads in your current path.
