[Feature]: add VNDB metadata provider
Author: mayan50Created Sep 16, 2026Updated Sep 16, 2026
I would like to contribute VNDB as a metadata provider for visual novels.
The implementation includes:
- VNDB Kana API integration
- Manual VNDB ID assignment
- Metadata, aliases, tags, developers, release dates, covers and screenshots
- Configurable metadata and artwork priority
- Scan scope controls to respect VNDB rate limits
- Tests and PostgreSQL migration coverage
The feature is intentionally independent from custom folder layouts and platform fallback rules. Would maintainers be open to reviewing a PR for this?
AI assistance disclosure: this proposal and the implementation were developed with substantial assistance from Codex. The code, tests, migration, and documentation will be reviewed and verified before submission.
