Feature Request - Link to rebrickable item page #22

Would be nice if while on the home page where it shows all the sets you have, if within the set clicking on the name or something would open a link to the set on rebrickable in a new tab.

Also I see getting the instructions are manual, is it due to the ways they are stored? not allowed by API? this was what I thought a link to the page could make it faster for getting things link this.

Also maybe a way to show sets missing instructions so we can upload them.

And one last thing, can we make it that when clicking on instructions it opens in a new web page.

  1. I added set numbers to be links, if you add LINKS=True to your .env or as a compose environment variable. See 2f6cc79790 and the updated readme.

  2. I can't find a place to programmatically download instructions. It is my top priority, but i've been working on a fix for a while without a clear way to do it.

  3. Under Show i added a button to just show items without instructions. 47f63b085e

  4. This is fixed how. 827415fb2f

Donations can be done through buymeacoffee.

sweet that worked, Thanks again.. I do have one thing in reguards to the LINKS=True. it might be best to make it so its not case sensative

I belive this would make it so its not case sensative.
"{% if links|lower == 'true' %}"

Also I have a few more tweak requests if possibe,
Would be nice if we were able to download the other pics that the site has for the set, then when under the inv screen have the pics acrooss the top and when clicking on them make the background white instead of transparent. And when in large view have arrows to switch between the pics.

Also not sure if able but maybe have the main pic a pic of the Box instead of the completed item. (Or an option to select what is perfered and if extra images are wanted, and maybe other options under the config instead of the .env file or have it write to the env file that way if it does not exist, it gets created with a button to restart docker for setting to take effect)

Just a few thoughts. Might have more leter if interested.

But love the work you have done on this. This is exactly what I wanted. I have sets going back to when I was a kid like from the 80's and have the instructions still for almost everything. So I might need to break out my scanner and make some PDF's of the ones I can get.

  • .env variables as case insensitive
  • Download additional images.
    • This might be hard. Rebrickables API only returns 1 picture.
    • Bricksets API can return more pictures
    • Using box art would be nice, but i need a reliable way to get those pictures.
  • Modal box white background.
    • This is fixed now. Good catch.
  • Move .env to /config
    • This is a good idea. I'll look into it.

As for scanning instructions, between LEGO, Brickset, Rebrickable, Peeron, Brickinstructions 99% of instructions are already online in some form. I would look at those sites first, before spending time scanning them.

@almulder Thank you so much! I'm closing the issue as almost everything is fixed.

Exceptions:

  • Automatic instructions download. Not possible unfortunately.
  • Box art. Not possible, as the API only offers one picture and there not way to specify which you want. The new design (e2425a106a) and v1.0.0 release should look much better though.
