I could not find a good reason for ComicIssue to exist other than that
it had more attributes than GenericMetadata, so it has been replaced.
New attributes for GenericMetadata:
series_id: a string uniquely identifying the series to tag_origin
series_aliases: alternate series names that are not the canonical name
title_aliases: alternate issue titles that are not the canonical name
alternate_images: a list of urls to alternate cover images
Updated attributes for GenericMetadata:
genre -> genres: str -> list[str]
comments -> description: str -> str
story_arc -> story_arcs: str -> list[str]
series_group -> series_groups: str -> list[str]
character -> characters: str -> list[str]
team -> teams: str -> list[str]
location -> locations: str -> list[str]
tag_origin -> tag_origin: str -> TagOrigin (tuple[str, str])
ComicSeries has been relocated to the ComicAPI package, currently has no
usage within ComicAPI.
CreditMetadata has been renamed to Credit and has replaced Credit from
ComicTalker.
fetch_series has been added to ComicTalker, this is currently only used
in the GUI when a series is selected and does not already contain the
needed fields, this function should always be cached.
A new split function has been added to ComicAPI, all uses of split on
single characters have been updated to use this
cleanup_html and the corresponding setting are now only used in
ComicTagger proper, for display we want any html directly from the
upstream. When applying the metadata we then strip the description of
any html.
A new conversion has been added to the MetadataFormatter:
j: joins any lists into a string with ', '. Note this is a valid
operation on strings as well, it will add ', ' in between every
character.
parse_settings now assigns the given ComicTaggerPaths object to the
result ensuring that the correct path is always used.
IssueString.as_string always returns a string this is a problem for
GenericMetadata. When the overlay function is used it checks
specifically for the value None this allows the -m option to unset
attributes however the issue attribute would get set to the empty
string when loading ComicRack tags regardless of if there was a value
stored in the file. Fixes #465 and #480
Make ComicArchive.path always absolute
Fix unique_file not preserving the extension
Fix incorrect output when renaming in CLI mode
Fix handling of platform when renaming
The two primary cases fixed are:
Ms. Marvel
spider-man/deadpool
The first issue removed 'Ms.' which is a problem as many comics have
series that the only difference in the title is the
designation/honorific.
The second issue is that the '/' was removed and not replaced with
anything causing a search for 'mandeadpool' which will not show useful
results.
Consequently all designations/honorifics are now untouched
All punctuation is replaced with a space
Refactor add_to_path with tests
Fix type hints for titles_match
Use casefold in get_language
Fix using the recursive flag in cli mode
Add http status code to ComicVine exceptions
Fix parenthesis getting removed when renaming
Add more tests
Implement rename on ComicArchive
Simplify unique_file with pathlib
Fix issues during renaming and simplify with pathlib
Allow exporting as zip to export 7-zip archives
Use casefold in place of lower
Make lint job fail if errors are detected
Use join instead of utils.list_to_string
Simplify get_recursive_filelist with the glob library
Fix handling of un-parseable numbers in xlate
The user rating control is replaced with critical rating which is now
represented as a float.
utils.xlate has been updated to have an is_float parameter
Metadata is reloaded on save so that changes can be seen
e.g. for CBL tags the critical rating field only stores integers
Remove no longer used google scripts
Remove convenience files from comicataggerlib and import comicapi directly
Add type-hints to facilitate auto-complete tools
Make PyQt5 code more compatible with PyQt6
Implement automatic tooling
isort and black for code formatting
Line length has been set to 120
flake8 for code standards with exceptions:
E203 - Whitespace before ':' - format compatiblity with black
E501 - Line too long - flake8 line limit cannot be set
E722 - Do not use bare except - fixing bare except statements is a
lot of overhead and there are already
many in the codebase
These changes, along with some manual fixes creates much more readable code.

Imprint handling has been added to utils and uses a subclassed dict to
return a tuple for imprint matching, this may not be the best idea but
it works for now.
Add settings option auto_imprint
Add cli flag -a, --auto-import
Refactor removearticles to only remove articles
Add normalization on the search string and the series name results
Searching now only compares ASCII a-z and 0-9 and all other characters
are replaced with single space, this is done to both the search string
and the result. This fixes an with names that are separated by a
hyphen (-) in the filename but in the Comic Vine name are separated by a
slash (/) and other similar issues.
