MyAnimeList scrobbler for Linux

Tundra

Tundra is an open-source MyAnimeList scrobbler application for Linux. It automatically detects media players running on your computer, checks for any anime videos playing, and marks them as watched on you MAL profile.

Download

Flatpak

AUR

For Arch Linux users, there are two packages in AUR to choose from:

• aur/tundra - stable version
• aur/tundra-git - latest git version

Usage

GUI

The usage is very simple:

1. First, you need to sign in to your MyAnimeList account with your MAL username and password.
2. Make sure that the title you are about to watch is marked as "watching" or "plan to watch" on your MAL account.
3. Then, you need to run an MPRIS-enabled media player and play a local anime video file. Its title, poster picture and episode number will appear after a few seconds in Tundra window.
4. The episode will be scrobbled after you watch over half of the video. You will know once you see the notification!

CLI

Tundra has CLI interface as well. First, you need to authenticate:

tundra authenticate

This will display a URL which you will need to open and then sign in to your MyAnimeList account. Then, you can run Tundra as a daemon:

tundra daemon

This way, Tundra will periodically check for players running and scrobble any anime videos to your MAL account, just like the GUI version.
