Support for Bottles Wine Prefixes #268

What's your idea?

Support for prefixes created by Bottles

The program would scan for wine prefixes in this directory: ~/.var/app/com.usebottles.bottles/data/bottles/bottles

you would also have to give permission for flatpak to be able to access this folder

Hi! I'm not too familiar with Bottles. Is there some metadata that ties each prefix to a specific game, or is it an ad hoc/manual thing where you could install one or more games in a single prefix? If they're essentially normal Wine prefixes, then you could configure them in Ludusavi as a Wine prefix root with a glob pattern in the path. However, that would make the scan much slower, since it would have to scan every prefix for every game without some way to narrow it down.

yes, you can install games in the same wineprefix, in this case the wine prefix that the user creates is in this directory: /var/home/<user>/.var/app/com.usebottles.bottles/data/bottles/bottles image

Hope this helps but within this folder /home/< user >/.var/app/com.usebottles.bottles/data/bottles/ is a library.yml file that looks like below. This contains the list of all prefixes created within bottles.

61907121-a070-4297-a2d5-a350c7197314: bottle: name: Diablo IV path: Diablo-IV icon: /home/< user >/.var/app/com.usebottles.bottles/data/bottles/bottles/Diablo-IV/icons/Battle.net.png id: 2cd58ae9-15fd-41ab-b8c1-28af81cca37f name: Battle.net thumbnail: grid:b434b1ad-1377-4e56-9232-d021e9ab4148.png d76a3e35-1d27-4e78-bfd2-ad39d2cda244: bottle: name: Grim Dawn path: Grim-Dawn icon: /home/< user >/.var/app/com.usebottles.bottles/data/bottles/bottles/Grim-Dawn/icons/Grim Dawn.png id: d907daf0-af13-45ac-85bc-3b10d512397e name: Grim Dawn thumbnail: grid:7e73de6d-fd7b-4b1d-ae51-7d7206dfe667.png

Then within each wine prefix is a bottles.yml which contains the .exe, name, ect. Example of this:
