AniDB Attributes

Configuring AniDB is optional but can unlock more features from the site

Using client and version allows access to AniDB Library Operations.

Using username and password allows you to access mature content with AniDB Builders.

All AniDB Builders still work without this, they will just not have mature content

A anidb mapping is in the root of the config file.

Below is a anidb mapping example and the full set of attributes:
