Since I'm indecisive on what anime to watch, I decided to solve the problem by making a chrome extension to randomly select anime for me.
This isn't super complex because I just wanted a practical introduction to developing browser extensions.
The extension icon is the kanji for gambling 賭 .
By default, navigating to any url prefixed with https://anilist.co/user/username/ and clicking the extension will open a new tab with a random anime from your 'planning' list.
If you wish to use a specific list, click on the list you want and then click the extension.
Example: Clicking on 'completed' list (navigates to https://anilist.co/user/username/animelist/Completed) and clicking the extension retrieves a random entry from your 'completed' list.
The way I coded th extension also allows you to select random entries from other public users' lists if you navigate to their profile.
Get user by username
{
User(search: "${username}"){
id name
}
}Get anime list by userId and status
{
MediaListCollection(userId: ${id}, type: ANIME, status: ${status}){
lists{
entries{
mediaId
}
}
}
}
