vdf parsing via bash #292

Closed frostworx closed 3 years ago

frostworx commented 3 years ago

I'm going to remove the appinfo-vdf dependency again and get the required info from the Appinfo directly instead.

removed in https://github.com/frostworx/steamtinkerlaunch/commit/c61081c2f99df280315903b665c39e36dc381690

33/436 tested games didn't find their data file in appinfo - needs further reinvestigation... (reopened)

frostworx commented 3 years ago

Hm, one of the appids not found is APPID=39690.

The "find commandline" basically is

sed "s/\x61\x70\x70\x69\x64\x00${SHEXOUT}\x00\x00/APPID$1/g" "$AIVDF" | strings | sed -n "/APPID$1/,/^appid/p"

where SHEXOUT='\x0A\x9B' (reversed appid in hex) and AIVDF is the appinfo.vdf. This is identical for all appids, and everything is sane - no idea why it doesn't return anything (for now)

Little test gist if someone wants to play with it: https://gist.github.com/frostworx/373fda92e335b50c41d111bd15548b28

The data for the following game appids can't be found here - would be good to know if this is reproducible on other systems:

Instead of avove test gist, you could also stl createappinfo all which will try to get data for all your (installed/those which have an appmanifest acf) games from your appinfo.vdf and save it to ~/.config/stl/games/appinfo/$APPID.txt (will need some time, depending on how many games are installed/have an appmanifest)

All files with 0 bytes could not be found for unknown reason.

frostworx commented 3 years ago

Extracting all owned games (SteamAppId) from the packageinfo.vdf works fine in bash utilizing xxd likely this will also be the solution for above appinfo.vdf "problem". Thanks all! 👍

frostworx commented 3 years ago

The ~/.config/stl/games/appinfo/*.txt file won't be used anymore, and can be manually deleted (if you want).

Instead .bin files will be stored there. The reason is simple: The .bin files contain more information (all game info available in the appinfo.vdf), which might be used in later functions.

frostworx commented 3 years ago

The new binary extractor seems to work pretty good. with stl createappinfo o it extracted >6500 files here. This apparently covers most owned games (I own less, so there are some tools, proton appids as well), but not all, as

207420  Wizorb
690040  SUPERHOT: MIND CONTROL DELETE

from the list above are still missing.

major rewrite landed with https://github.com/frostworx/steamtinkerlaunch/commit/6d288623419a25d71fd125038bedc263400a49e5

Thanks again all, really great! 👍
