Metron-Tagger
Quick Description
A command-line tool to tag comic archives with metadata from metron.cloud.
Installation
PyPi
Or install it yourself:
pipx install metron-tagger
There are optional dependencies which can be installed by specifying one or more of them in braces e.g. metron-tagger[7zip]
The optional dependencies are:
- 7zip: Provides support for reading/writing to CB7 files.
- pdf: Provides support for reading/writing to PDF files.
FAQ
What comics formats are supported?
- Metron-Tagger supports CBZ, CBR, CBT, CB7 (optional), and PDF (optional) comics.
How to enable RAR support?
- It depends on the unrar command-line utility, and expects it to be in your
$PATH.
NOTE: unrar only supports reading archives, so you will need to convert the archive to a cbz to write to it. To do so you can use
-z, --export-to-cbzand if you want you can remove the orginal .cbr archive with--delete-originalafter successful conversion.

Examples
To tag all comics in a directory with MetronInfo.xml that don't already have one:
metron-tagger -om --ignore-existing /path/to/comics
To remove any ComicInfo.xml from a directory of comics:
metron-tagger -dc /path/to/comics
To validate any metadata, ComicInfo.xml and MetronInfo.xml, would be done by running the following:
metron-tagger -cm --validate /path/to/comics
To write MetronInfo.xml metadata from comics with ComicInfo.xml data, and migrate data for comics that don't exist at the Metron Comic Database:
metron-tagger -om --migrate /path/to/comics
To remove duplicate pages from comics (which should be only ran on a directory of weekly release since we scan all the pages within a comic), would be done by running the following:
metron-tagger --duplicates /path/to/weekly/comics
