Unofficial, community, substitute integration using the official https://github.com/gogcom/galaxy-integrations-python-api. The idea is, that you don't wan't to add all "shelf games" or games in stores that GOG not supports right now (like BigFishGames) by hand to your GOG Galaxy 2.0 Library.
This integration allows you to put all games into a simple csv file (id;title) and loads these games into your library.
Feel free to open an issue (in English prefered, but German is also ok).
- Download the source code from the latest release
- Unzip the downloaded file into any folder and open the folder inside
- Inside
install/opengames.csvand fill in your games (each row one game, id must be unique but can be whatever you want). - Inside
install/executeinstall.ps1 - Tell the script which platform you want to use.
- Clone/Download latest release source code
- Unzip into any folder on your desktop
- Put your games into /install/games.data (each line one game)
- Execute /install/install.ps1
- Or do it manually:
- create folder:
%LocalAppData%\GOG.com\Galaxy\plugins\installed\c0_generic-55cc6f22-6b51-441e-9b8f-c1bb59d035de - put all files and folders inside
srcinto that new folder - put
install/games.datainto that new folder
- create folder:
- Restart/Start GOG Galaxy 2.0 client
- Connect via options
- To remove just disconnect via options, all games (and tags and stuff) are removed.
- Games can have UTF-8 titles like (tm), (r), €, äöü, etc.
- Only Titles are loaded, images and details are loaded by GOG itself but only if the title matches a game existing on GOG
- Only tested on windows, but should work for other platforms, too.
- Python 3.8
- VSCode with Python Extension
- Clone and change code
- Main file:
src/plugin.py - Change manifest for a new GUID and Platform ID ("test" works but not well), change Platform ID in
src/plugin.py, too - See
install/install.ps1to deploy
- manifest.json and games.csv MUST BE utf-8 w/o BOM or it won't work.
- The plugin needs to implement authenticate (and return the Authentication) or it won't connect.
- The plugin needs to implement at least one of the get_... methods, or it will get stuck connecting.
- The plugin keeps disconnecting on close of GOG if no data is persisted (credentials)
- Platform "test" does behave weird (should not be used) and doesn't stay connected after close of GOG
- Platform ID in the
src/manifest.jsonand thesrc/plugin.pyneeds to be the same. - How to persist data:
self.persistent_cache["c0_empty_stub"] = "Test" , self.push_cache()
The old version used a simple text file with each game in a row like
Game 1
Game 2
...
The new version is a csv file with added (unique) ID.
This little PowerShell script reads an existing games.data and outputs the games + an individual GUID as ID as the expected format.
Just copy & paste the whole script into PowerShell (from inside the folder containing the games.data).
A new games.csv will be created next to the old file.
. {
$CRLF = [Environment]::NewLine
$data = gc "games.data"
$datagames = $data.Split($CRLF)
$games = $datagames | % { "$(New-Guid);$_" }
$csvgames = [string]::Join($CRLF, $games)
$csv = "id;title" + $CRLF + $csvgames
[System.IO.File]::WriteAllText("$((gi .).FullName)\games.csv", $csv)
