Add games to Discord Game Library from other Launchers #290

Open LilKurisuu opened 3 years ago

LilKurisuu commented 3 years ago

Description

This plugin would add the ability to add games/applications from other launchers such as steam (or just applications in general) into the discord library, this way we can have a place for all of our games in one spot.

More info

Maybe to add a game to your library, you would navigate to the library page, press a + button on the top right of your screen and then select the .exe in the game's directory.

this could probably work in combination with #319 because most modern game launchers have some way to launch via uri (steam has the steam:// uri scheme with paths such as /uninstall/ and /rungameid/), plus i think i remember steam having an API that you can connect to and ask for all games in library for someone

Thats a great idea! But keep in mind that I wasn't JUST talking about steam games, I also meant games from the Epic Games launcher and maybe some other platforms.

(also for the people who live under a rock and don't know what the game library is, here's a screenshot of what I mean https://kris.is-jes.us/62a592f.png)

epic games launcher has the com.epicgames.launcher:// uri scheme but im not sure about the game open syntax and i think origin might still have the origin2:// scheme but that may be deprecated.

Has the game library not been removed from the app?
