Comics is a webcomics aggregator.
Comics is a webcomics aggregator. Out of the box it can crawl and archive
about two hundred comics every day. The comics are made available through an
easy to use web interface were users can build personalized collections of
their favorite comics, and then read them on the site or using a feed reader.
Adding a new comic to your installation requires only the addition of a single
Python file with some metadata and a few lines of code. To make crawler
development easy, Comics comes with both documentation and powerful APIs for
crawling web sites and feeds.
Comics runs on Python and Django. For instructions on how to install and use it, see the documentation.
The Comics project is almost as old as Django itself, with the code base
originating back to 2007. However, as of 2021, the project isn’t entirely
dead: the project maintainer is still running his own instance with a number
of regular users. There are no immediate plans for any new features, but
the project is up-to-date with recent releases of Python, Django, and other
dependencies, with a modern and maintainable deployment setup.
