Steam steam

How can we get the download link?

JafarAkhondali commented 5 years ago

Steam doesn't allow that, in some cases if you could get direct download link of games it would be possible in PDM. Sorry but we can't help.

Pakrohk commented 5 years ago

Contact the steam team, are eager to cooperate.

Alirezaies commented 5 years ago

I'm a Steam user for +3 years and using it daily,

Steam does not offer any feature or API for implementing this requested feature, not just for download links, but also each downloaded game/app may have different installation folder and data directory that we can not detect them programmatically,

you better contact Steam support first to implement such feature (e.g. API) first then open an issue like this.

I think we'd better close this issue.

Plz, check link

Alirezaies commented 5 years ago

I can confirm that SteamCMD gives us the ability to implement the feature you have been requested, thank you for your research, I will consider this as an implementable feature and will ask other members to tag this issue as "feature request" + keeping it open.

however this does not mean we have been decided to add this feature at the moment :)

please be patient.

I'll start writing a Python wrapper for SteamCMD tomorrow, but there is no guarantee that this feature would be implemented in Persepolis Download Manager or it would be possible to add a feature like directly integrate it with Steam itself (like Google Chrome's plugin and download directly within browser), hope it all goes fine and help you :)

Alirezaies commented 5 years ago

I think there is no way to get download links.

any idea?

Please let us know about the work.

Steam is a digital content delivery platform, and has a download manager of its own, which can pause/resume downloads at will. The downloaded files need to be validated, then installed, probably with its own DRM depending on each game. Valve will never let you interfere with the internal working of Steam.

Even if you can somehow use PDM to interrupt the downloads, how do you plan to install the game using the compressed files you've downloaded? I can't get the idea behind this request. Do you ever think about that or just post random delusion ideas?

Alirezaies commented 5 years ago

well this is a more clear and explicit answer, we surely can not change the core of Steam, SteamCMD is also just another way of interacting with Steam, I'm afraid it's not going to help us increasing the download rate, as Steam itself offers it's own builtin download manager I see no need of implementing this feature in PDM.

I think there is currently no way to do this, and DM shouldn't focus on integrating other downloads platform. However if anyone would like to do this, we would be happy to receive a PR.
