Add first steam steam-games version #201

Closed 4n4n4s closed 1 year ago

I did not yet add it to the autostart as some things still need to be refined. So please consider it as a draft/alpha version.

Maybe in the future we could use e.g. steamdb.info to get the games and only pick ones that have a certain rank etc or use some API. For now I guess it would be best to just maintain it manually.

Why steamDB where you would need api access and not the search parameters discussed in https://github.com/vogler/free-games-claimer/issues/89?

Do you mean https://store.steampowered.com/search/?sort_by=Reviews_DESC&as-hide=negative&maxprice=free&category1=998%2C21&specials=1&hidef2p=1&ndl=1?

Kind of yes. Not every parameter on the page can be set with url parameters but it would be a good start and then make the filters configurable that get send via POST in a second step.

Just wanted to check it out, but the commits are gone now. Check git reflog if it was by accident.

I will bring it back but decided to remove it for now as I was not happy with the claiming url. I found a way how we can get giveaways using https://www.gamerpower.com/giveaways/steam/free-games
