Mikan automatically downloads cards from various idol or idol-adjacent gacha mobile games.
The following games are currently supported:
- Love Live! School Idol Festival (via [School Idol Tomodachi](https://schoolido.lu/))
- Love Live! School Idol Festival ALL STARS (via [Idol Story](https://idol.st/))
- Love Live! School Idol Festival 2 (via [Idol Story](https://idol.st/))
- BanG Dream! Girls Band Party! (via [Bandori Party](https://bandori.party/))
- Revue Starlight -Re LIVE- (via [Starlight Academy](https://starlight.academy/))
- IDOLM@STER Cinderella Girls Starlight Stage (via [Cinderella Producers](https://cinderella.pro/))
## Installation
To install Mikan, you need to install `pipx` ([see instructions](https://pypa.github.io/pipx/installation/)) and then run `pipx install mikan-card-downloader`.
To update it, run `pipx upgrade mikan-card-downloader`.
Installing through `pip` is also possible, but not recommended, and since Python 3.11 requires the `--break-system-packages` flag.
## Building by source
(Note: this software requires [Python](https://www.python.org/)>=3.10 and [Poetry](https://python-poetry.org/))
1. Clone this GitHub repository (`git clone https://github.com/DemonicSavage/mikan.git`)
2. Go to the `mikan` directory (`cd mikan` on Unix).
3. Run `poetry install` to grab the necessary dependencies.
## Configuration
The configuration file currently has the following options:
```cfg
# Path for the downloaded cards
[Paths]
data_dir = ~/Idol_Cards
# Other options
[Other]
# Formerly needed for SIF2 support
cookie = your_sessionid_cookie
# Maximum concurrent connections, default is 10
max_connections = 10
```
You can find this file in `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/mikan` on Linux, `%APPDATA%\Local\mikan\mikan` on Windows, or `/Library/Application Support/mikan` on macOS.
## Usage
This is a command line script. It first creates (or updates) a metadata file about the available cards (`items.json`), and then downloads the image files themselves.
By default, running `mikan` without any arguments will create metadata and then download SIF2 cards.
Arguments can be passed to `mikan` to download cards from other games. Run `mikan --help` to see what arguments are available.
~~Note that for now, you need a `sessionid` cookie for an Idol Story account with beta-testing enabled for SIF2 support.~~
This is no longer the case.
Running it for the first time will prompt you for the directory cards and stills should be downloaded to.

This software is released under the GNU GPLv3 license, and its dependencies are released under their respective licenses.
