Hikari Devlog #5

Hello everyone, welcome to Devlog #5 of Hikari! (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧

Okay, now talking about the updates, I have added the similar randomization to AniList and Kitsu API as well.

Yeah, I mean, they work differently, but overall it is to achieve the same random result as it was applied in Jikan.

You can read Devlog #4 for more info.

Changes to Select Genre

Another change I made was on the Select Genre is how the results are displayed .

So basically, before, how it used to work was:

If you selected one genre, then it would give you the correct result.

But if you selected multiple genres, then it might:

Give you the same anime again and again
Give you some random unrelated anime
Or sometimes even throw an error

But yeah, there are some changes I made to this.

Now, instead of showing some random unrelated anime or throwing an error, it would display something which comes within the range of your selected genres.

For example, if you selected:

Action
Comedy
Drama

And if no such anime is found on the API which contains all three genres, then it would give you an anime containing Action or Comedy or Drama, or any combination of the selected genres.

So yeah, it will not totally disappoint you. I mean, I felt it would be better to give you something related to what you selected. (￣▽￣)ゞ rather than something totally unrelated.

Current Implementation

Currently, I have applied this system only to AniList.

I’ll apply it to Jikan and Kitsu soon

However, I am not applying it to SukiMori, as it is not giving quite the response required to display anything.

I did not comment out the whole code of SukiMori, but yeah, I am not applying the filters and stuff to SukiMori as it is throwing an error again and again, and it’s not letting me fetch any data.

I tried searching for it, but I could not really fix it.

So I asked AI, and it told me that it was refusing to connect and nothing can be done and something like that.

So yeah, I am not writing filters for that for now.

That’s It!

And yeah, that’s it for this devlog, I guess. (｡•̀ᴗ-)✧

If you have any questions, or if you think I did not explain anything properly, then please do tell me in the comments.

I’ll try to explain it there .

As always, thank you so much for reading!

and Have a very nice day! (≧▽≦)
