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
