Discord now playing info for og xbox

Warning

This project is a "PoC".
Just making sure this is even possible, let alone how to accomplish it in a sane and easy to use manor.
So this is not a complete ready to use project... yet.
Input and code is welcome though.

This project is a PoC for getting currently running title info from an og xbox into your discord client
so your friends on discord can see the games you are playing on your og xbox, the same way they can see games you are playing on pc or current xbox.
This project is Proof of Concept as we have the "Server" setup, the software that takes the title id and tells discord that you are playing xbox,
but we don't have the "client" software setup yet, the how do we get the currently running title info out of your xbox done yet.

How to test

(There is no how to use yet as this project is not "finished", but you can test it out though)
0. If you don't have python 3 set up, do that now. also download the requirements.txt and run pip install -r requirements.txt
to pip install discord_rich_presence and websockets for this project.

1. Download the server.py and testClient.py from this repo to a folder on your computer, shouldn't matter where.
2. Make sure the discord app is running on your computer.
3. Now run python server.py from the folder where you downloaded the server.py to
4. When the server is running you should see a message like this
   

Server started on ws://192.168.1.87:1102
Waiting for connection...

Note the ws://192.168.1.87 this is the ip of our server, we need this for later.
4. By later I mean now, open the testClient.py in a notepad or whatever IDE you like to use.
we need to edit serverIP = '192.168.1.87' to the ip that was listed in your server screen. Then save and close.

5. now run python testClient.py It will automatically try and connect to the server at the serverIP ip.

6. once connected the server should say something like ('192.168.1.87', 54130) Xbox connected!
And will now ask you to enter a title id. You can see a list of title ids here
^{(You can enter the title id in uppercase or lowercase it doesn't matter)}
If you enter an id that's not in the database, your status will be set to Playing Unknown Title
Once you have sent a title id to the server, the server will now say something like
Now Playing 4D530064 (MS10003W) - Halo 2
and you can see in discord when under your name it should say Playing Xbox
If you click on your name, you can see more details about the "Playing Xbox" activity, in this case, playing halo 2.
If you enter q as a title id to quit or otherwise disconnect from the server, your presence will be cleared on discord.

Side quest:
You can download "WebSocket Tester" on android, set the ip to the one listed from your server, set the port to 1102 and click connect
then you can enter a title id as a message from here. This will test to make sure this thing is working over your local network and you don't have firewall shenanigans to figure out.
