Follows original readme:

ComicTagger is a multi-platform app for writing metadata to digital comics, written in Python and PyQt.

Features:

  • Runs on Mac OSX, Microsoft Windows, and Linux systems
  • Communicates with an online database (Comic Vine) for acquiring metadata
  • Uses image processing to automatically match a given archive with the correct issue data
  • Batch processing in the GUI for tagging hundreds or more comics at a time
  • Reads and writes multiple tagging schemes ( ComicBookLover and ComicRack, with more planned).
  • Reads and writes RAR and Zip archives (external tools needed for writing RAR)
  • Command line interface (CLI) on all platforms (including Windows), which supports batch operations, and which can be used in native scripts for complex operations. For example, to recusrively scrape and tag all archives in a folder comictagger.py -R -s -o -f -t cr -v -i --nooverwrite /path/to/comics/
