A parser for PreviewsWorld text files containing new comic book release info.
Note that the parser will only return comics published by the following companies:
- Marvel Comics
- DC Comics
- Image Comics
- Dark Horse Comics
- IDW Publishing
This is because PreviewsWorld does not specify publishers for any other releases. It simply categorizes them under "Comics & Graphic Novels".
Also note that the parser will only return comic book releases. It will ignore trade paperbacks and hardcovers as well as anything categorized as a toy.
import previews_parser
f = open('newreleases.txt', 'r')
string = f.read()
output = previews_parser.parse(string)
# process output...
If you want to run the test suite, simply install nosetests and then run
