Blacklisting tags

[Nikolas-Lehto]

How hard would it be to implement blacklisting tags? I'd be willing to participate in this, but I am not yet familiar with the codebase. Which parts of maigret would i need to modify? (e.g. how is filtering implemented in the webui etc.)

I will have a look at it later. But if I remember correct, the exclusion is just a thing which is either callable via the api or some --exclude flag, did you check maigret --help?

No,, i re-read trough the help, but you can only whitelist them.

I can confirm that the webinterface only calls functions already implemented in the main application, so blacklisting would need to be done there.
Technically it could be implemented in the web interface only, but I would rather not do that in order to avoid fragmentation of the codebase.

Generally it should be fairly easy to implement by removing specified sites from the tuple before the query is executed.
