v0.26.0

New Features

Here comes the long-awaited v2 plugin API! Plugins targeting the new API can offer these extra features:

• Search manga with search terms.
• Subscriptions and auto-update. You can subscribe to new chapters on the download page, and Mango will automatically check and download them for you. A new subscription manager page has been added.
• A new helper function mango.settings(key). See https://github.com/hkalexling/mango-plugins/wiki/Development-Guideline-v2 for details.

NOTE: Your existing plugins won't magically work with the new v2 API out of the box, and plugin authors/maintainers must update the plugins for that. The official mangadex plugin has been updated to support the v2 API.

Improvements

• Add error handling on the admin page (closes [Bug Report] Logging when 500 error occurs #274)
• Add manifest.json for a better mobile experience (closes [Feature Request] Add a manifest.json for better mobile experience #262)

• Optionally include the reading progress percentage in API response
• New endpoints for getting home page items (/api/library/continue_reading, /api/library/start_reading, and /api/library/recently_added)
