steam-chat

Steam chat for shell/terminal/command line for people who don't want to install steam but still want to chat but also don't want to use web browser steam for some reason.

Usage

1. Clone the repository
2. Create a file auth.json with your username and password in it e.g. {"username":"me","password":"hunter2"}
3. Try running the example via node example.js - you might get a STEAM GUARD, CHECK EMAIL error
4. Take the code from the Steam email you should receive and add it to auth.json e.g. {...,"auth":"code"}
5. Run the example file again and you should be logged in

Other things

• As of node v10.0.0, node-tput cannot be compiled properly so it has been moved to a peer dependency. And I threw in some workaround.

• As of 2018 July 12, the steam servers are kind of messed up. I put a workaround but servers are kind of unstable so it might have to try connecting a lot.
