Adding my own app to Steam #135
Comments
There is currently no support for that, but it can be made. 2 ways I see this could be done.
Both can be done, which one do you prefer? |
Thanks for your steady reply, something like 1: Where What do you think about this kind of approach? EDIT: I prefer 1 as I try to make everything "invisible" for the user, however when I am using BoilR I can advertise it in the installer if you prefer. |
If we go with 1, i think it needs a little more information. The add-game parameter would make boilr look for the rest of the parameters, the --no-ui would trigger the synchronization that would then handle image download. Actually thinking about it, there should be a --image-download-only parameter so that it does not mess up any shortcuts that people already have. |
@XargonWan does the example make sense to you? |
Hi, sorry for the delay, yes your idea seems very good, I also like that it will only scrape for the added game and not for all, maybe someone doesn´t want to scrape their other links for some reasons. So to do a real example it would be:
In my case I removed --launch-options as it would not be used. In case that the shortcut is already existing will it add a duplicate? PS: this will happen in my wrapper script inside my own flatpak, so basically net.retrodeck.retrodeck will contain boiler as well that it will be adding net.retrodeck.retrodeck. |
@XargonWan you are welcome to include BoilR in your app. |
@PhilipK fair enough, and thanks for your greenlight! |
It's MIT or Apache license , It's no warranty but do whatever you want basicly 😂 |
Hi, is there any update on this issue? On RetroDECK we are considering to create a script to add specific games to Steam, this BoilR feature would be vital. Please let me know :) |
Greetings,
I wish to integrate BoilR in RetroDECK in order to add RetroDECK itself to the Steam Library after the installation and scrape its images that are already available into SteamGridDB.
I've seen that BoilR supports the
--no-ui
argument, but is there any argument that asks BoilR to add a specific app?Thanks in advance
