Indexer and Downloader for Library Genesis (programming.dev)

I wrote an indexer and downloader for libgen that is mostly compatible with readarr via newznab and nzbget apis.

I don’t know much about readarr or the nzbget api but I have a working v1.

Not sure where to take it from here though.

Not sure if it would be better to write a new downloader and get it added to readarr or keep emulating an existing downloader.

I feel like this bridges a gap in content from Usenet with libgen but I’m looking for feedback and to see if anyone knows of a similar project.

Also if there is any interest I will publish a docker container so you can run it next to your arr stack.

Thoughts?

Sounds nice! I am also working on a usenet indexer right now, but I am not ready to make it public. Anyway, if you publish a docker container I would gladly give it a try.
