Quick Start

Get your AniList gallery running on your Hexo blog in three steps.

1. Install

Inside your Hexo project folder, run:

npm install hexo-anilist

2. Configure

Add the following to your Hexo root _config.yml — not your theme's config file:

anilist:
  enable: true
  username: "your_anilist_username"
  anime:
    subtitle: "My anime collection"

WARNING

The anime block is required for any content to appear. Without it, the plugin will generate an empty page. To also show a manga gallery, add a manga block with its own subtitle.

3. Generate

hexo clean
hexo generate

Your gallery will be available at your-site.com/anime/ by default.

TIP

Run hexo clean whenever you update your AniList — the plugin caches API responses locally to avoid rate limits, so it won't pick up new entries unless the cache is cleared.

Done! From here you can configure the layout, columns, path, and specific tabs. See the Customization guide for all available options.
