App version:

Issue/Request:
Request

Steps to reproduce (if applicable)

1. Show all my Manga list from anilist & kitsu in different page
2. Click on list then search through manga sources
3. then add to library

Other details:
i have made some images in photoshop
side panel : https://i.imgur.com/D9x4nFE.png
main screen : https://i.imgur.com/qGWMOE4.png

this will help to view all the list from anilist.co and kitsu.io without adding each one by one to library. it will help for backup too (partial backup)

This seems out of the scope of a manga reading application. Tachiyomi is not a kitsu/anilist/mal client.

[as280093]

@Flat the problem was i have 49 manga in my anilist when i switched to tachiyomi i added each one by one looking on my pc it took me 1 hour to add and mark them as read. And i think i could be easy to show the list inside the app.

[Flat]

Even if we show the list in the app you will still have to manually track and add each one, adding the additional step of having to back out of the list to search a catalog.

[wopian]

Yes, but it removes the need of having to get the name of, then search by pasting/typing the name for hundreds of manga. It's why I still don't have all of what I (was) reading added to Tachiyomi over 2 years later.

[CarlosEsco]

Feel like this is feature creep. Inorichi would need to decide if this a manga reader or reader and tracker

[CarlosEsco]

Too add if this was added you will get tickets asking for ability to do posts and etc for the sites

[as280093]

@CarlosEsco :joy: no need for that this will be the end
its not posting app only manga reading app
so only manga content

[CarlosEsco]

But why can I not post on the manga page for anilist or kitsu about the manga I am reading?

[wopian]

That would be a separate issue that can be discussed/closed for being out of scope. As it stands this is relevant as it has the potential of making adding multiple manga to Tachiyomi from tracking services so much quicker, as users would no longer need to search for each individual manga in their library.

I don't know if the navigation drawer is the best place for it, but of course they could only be listed if you have an account linked.

[grravity]

I think this would be a nice feature to have

[as280093]

so anyone agreed on adding this feature

[CarlosEsco]

So get coding

@as280093 I agree with @Flat, this feature doesn't exactly fit in with the manga reader.

I am not sure but, perhaps making an extension might be a better idea.(As of now, I don't know how this can be done using an extension)

[inorichi]

Before anyone starts doing this, the drawer is going away and I won't merge new features on the current version.

Once 1.x has some shape it might be considered but don't get your hopes up.

[AmineI]

If can see the need to make importing manga from tracking services easier, but I think your "designs" suggestions makes these features too... Prominent ?
Such a feature would be more suited to be in the "tracking" settings, don't you think ? And with less information probably, as it'd be used to quickly add the mangas that aren't in your library yet, not to check/manage your lists. Your pictures makes it looks like a whole manga list manager inside Tachiyomi to me, which would be a bit too much I believe ?

[as280093]

Prominent
ya that could works the main objective is to get all the tracking manga from kitsu or aniliist in tachiyomi without adding them one by one, the above images were just my way of explaining the UI but if anyone want to change it its ok, just the objective should be fulfilled

[arkon]

I can kind of understand the appeal, but I'd like to avoid having too much feature creep/bloat in this app.

[wopian]

It's more of a quality of life fix for those using the tracking tab on the manga views than pointless feature creep.

[Flat]

It's also implementing basically a full tracking client which is not in the scope of this app imo.
