A basic display file and RPGLE program built over the Anilist GraphQL API (Just for fun/practice). Enter an Anilist username and display basic account stats. This is not meant to be a full API wrapper or handle all errors.

I wanted to make some dedicated UDF's and clean up my code, but its good enough for such a simple application.

This is my first IBM i side project using GNU Make, git, and VS Code. I still used SDA for display files because its a lot less tedious.

• Ensure that CCSID is 37 - chgjob ccsid(37)
• call Anilist

• Build - gmake all
• Clean - gmake clean
• Pull to IFS - gmake pull (still using SDA for DSPFs)
• Push to Library - gmake push
• Log - gmake > buildlog.txt 2>&1
• Git push - git -c http.sslVerify=false push origin master

• SSH terminal session for running git and gmake commands
• SSH FS VS Code Extension https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=Kelvin.vscode-sshfs
• Do not use CRLF line endings, use LF (lower right)
