jimaku is a simple site dedicated to hosting Japanese subtitles of anime or other Japanese content. It's the spiritual successor of kitsunekko.
Right now, Rust v1.74 or higher is required. To install just run cargo build
.
In order to actually run the server the static
directory needs to be next to the executable. Maybe in the future there'll be a way to automatically move it.
Since this site is made to be a replacement for kitsunekko, it has support for scraping and then loading the data to this server. In order to do this initially, a bootstrapping phase is necessary where it downloads all the files necessary and then generates a fixture.json
file.
This fixture.json
file essentially has all the data that was scraped in a format that the program can understand when loaded using the fixtures
subcommand. This flow allows you to edit the data in a way without committing it to the database yet.
As a temporary migration period, this program supports periodically scraping from kitsunekko to get the newest data uploaded in a similar manner to the fixtures
and scrape
subcommands. Currently this is set to every hour.
AGPL-v3.
