Intent

Work on #244 and include screenshots of the working fix in the PR.

Issue 244, "[Source Request] Mizupan's Archives" (opened four years ago, no linked PR): the requester wants the site added as a source. https://mizupanshoko.wordpress.com/ returns 200 and is a wordpress.com site; a chapter page such as https://mizupanshoko.wordpress.com/2022/01/26/former-yang-guifei-chapter-2-.../ returns 200 with about 11.8k characters of readable text. No plugin and no generated source covers the site today. Content is English.

Make sure the fix's pull request shows a photo of the plugin working correctly inside the plugin playground, and run that screenshot process headless if possible.

Screenshots

These come from this repo's plugin playground (run headless), not from the LNReader app. The Android toolchain is not installed on the machine that made this change, so the plugin has not been tested in the LNReader app.

1. Popular listing, with covers in the playground. The fallback cover is used for 99 Firemaking, which has no artwork.

Plugin playground: Popular novels for Mizupan's Archives

2. Search for "Shisha", with this source's result on screen.

Plugin playground: Search results for Shisha

3. Parse Novel for /shisha-sosei/: cover, summary and metadata.

4. Parse Novel chapter list: 39 chapters.

5. Parse Chapter for Former Yang Guifei chapter 2: readable text.

What Changed

  • Adds a new standalone English source plugin, plugins/english/mizupanshoko.ts (id mizupanshoko, v1.0.0), for mizupanshoko.wordpress.com. Novels are discovered from the main-menu pages that list chapter posts, and chapters come from each novel page's chapter list.
  • Scrapes the HTML directly, since the site does not expose the WordPress REST API. Search uses native /?s= queries and maps chapter hits back to their novel through the category slug. Chapter text drops script, style, sharing, and related-post blocks, plus Previous/TOC/Next navigation paragraphs.
  • Adds the source icon at public/static/src/en/mizupanshoko/icon.png (96x96 PNG), referenced by the plugin's icon field.

Risk Assessment

✅ Low: The change is a single new standalone plugin with a valid 96x96 icon and no edits to shared code. The findings are parser and error-handling edge cases that depend on live site markup, which the review could not confirm, so the risk is limited to browse/search robustness rather than data loss.

Testing

  • npm run check:plugin -- plugins/english/mizupanshoko.ts: popularNovels PASS (3 novels), searchNovels PASS (1 result for "Shisha Sosei"), parseNovel PASS (39 chapters), parseChapter PASS (4023 chars).
  • npm run build:full: exit 0. ESLint and Prettier are clean on the new file.
  • Plugin playground, run headless (screenshots above): Popular, Search, Parse Novel and Parse Chapter tabs, with this source's live results on screen.

Open items

  • Accepted as-is, not fixed: four review warnings from the pipeline's review step remain open. (1) One menu page that errors fails the whole browse and search, because the catalogue loop has no per-page error handling. (2) Nav text such as "Previous Chapter | TOC | Next Chapter" may leak into chapter content. (3) Decimal chapter titles such as "Chapter 5.5" collapse onto the integer number. (4) Every browse or search re-fetches each novel page sequentially; the maintainer declined a fix for this 3-novel site as out of scope.
  • Not driven: Export EPUB, and the Former Yang Guifei chapter 2 path in the live check. The playground capture also covered chapter 1 of Shisha Sosei.

AI disclosure

This PR was written with AI assistance (Claude) and validated by the no-mistakes pipeline. No human has reviewed the code or tested it in the app. Weight reviews accordingly.

⚠️ **Review** - 4 warnings
  • ⚠️ plugins/english/mizupanshoko.ts:179 - fetchCatalogue loads every menu page with no per-page error handling, so one menu link that returns a non-OK status (e.g. a stale menu entry 404ing) makes fetchHtml throw and fails the whole catalogue. Both popularNovels (line 54) and searchNovels (line 120) call fetchCatalogue, so browse and search both break. Fix: catch errors per menu page in the loop and skip that page, keeping the others. Only the loop at lines 179-183 needs to change, since both callers share it.
  • ⚠️ plugins/english/mizupanshoko.ts:92 - Navigation-stripping in parseChapter only drops a paragraph when NAV_WORDS removes everything. A nav line such as "« Previous Chapter | TOC | Next Chapter »" leaves "« Chapter | | Chapter »" after replacement, so it is kept and the nav text leaks into chapter content. Same for "Previous Chapter" alone. The check at lines 92-97 must treat these leftover words as nav too. This is conditional on the live markup using such wording; the bracketed form in the comment is the only one the author verified.
  • ⚠️ plugins/english/mizupanshoko.ts:217 - chapterNumber is parsed with \d+, so decimal chapter titles collapse onto the integer part. "Chapter 5.5" gets chapterNumber 5, the same as "Chapter 5", and the two chapters become indistinguishable by number. Conditional on the site using decimal titles, which the review did not confirm against the live site.
  • ⚠️ plugins/english/mizupanshoko.ts:164 - fetchCatalogue re-fetches the homepage and then every novel page sequentially on each call. It runs on every popularNovels call and on every searchNovels call, including each paginated search page, so one search costs N+1 sequential requests. The smallest honest fix (parallel fetches or caching) adds machinery beyond the stated scope, so the remedy needs authorization. The defect itself is only a latency and load issue.
  • ℹ️ plugins/english/mizupanshoko.ts:9 - Simplification: NovelPage keeps the full cheerio document ($) for every catalogue entry. The catalogue consumers (toNovelItem, the searchNovels byPath lookup) need only path, name, and cover, and novelChapters is called on the document inside fetchCatalogue, so the stored $ is not needed. Removing the $ field from NovelPage (and the return on line 199) would drop the per-novel DOM retention and remove an unrequired component. This does not change behavior.

🔧 Fix applied.

Adds a standalone English source for mizupanshoko.wordpress.com, a
WordPress.com fan translation blog. Novels are the menu pages, chapters
are the dated posts they link to, and search is the native WordPress
search mapped back to novels through each post's category.

P2 Exported books lose covers

resolveUrl breaks absolute cover URLs. EPUB export calls it with sourceNovel.cover, including the external defaultCover used for novels without artwork. Since toPath preserves external URLs, this produces https://mizupanshoko.wordpress.comhttps://github.com/.... The request fails, and export silently leaves out the cover.

Return absolute URLs unchanged before joining site-relative paths.

Suggested change
resolveUrl = (path: string) => this.site + this.toPath(path);
resolveUrl = (path: string) =>
/^https?:\/\//i.test(path) ? path : this.site + this.toPath(path);
