Ignore DLC count information for specific games by using a list of games that we know have DLC.
GOG reports wrong DLC count information for many games. By using a list of games that we know have DLC we can ignore DLC count info that GOG provides for those games.
User can use local list ($XDG_CONFIG_HOME/lgogdownloader/game_has_dlc.txt) or use remote list by using the new "--dlc-list" option.
The list uses same format as blacklist.
I would like to use LGOGDownloader in conjunction with Gentoo's
package manager, which may execute it as root, portage, or some other
user in the portage group. A shared configuration under /etc will be
used to avoid sandboxing issues. This will not be world readable.
Adds options to set path to CA certificate bundle in PEM format.
CURL_CA_BUNDLE environment variable is used if it is set and CA certificate path is not set with --cacert option.
New option "--threads" can be used to set how many parallel downloads to run. The default is 4 threads.
Changes to behavior:
- Serials and changelogs are saved and covers downloaded for all games that match the "--game" filter before any other files are downloaded.
- Automatic XML creation is run after all files are downloaded. Previously xml data was automatically created right after download finished.
- The "--limit-rate" option sets rate limit for thread not global rate limit.
- blacklist applies to installed files only; use ignorelist for orphans
- blacklisted but present items are orphans, as they should be
- use exact matching for file paths: files in wrong location are orphans
Ignoring DLC count information helps in situations where the account page doesn't provide accurate information about DLCs.
--ignore-dlc-count sets regular expression filter for games to ignore DLC count information.
Game specific option "ignore-dlc-count" can be used to ignore DLC count for specific game.
Useful in case platform identifier is missing for some games in the game shelf.
Using --platform with --list doesn't work when using --no-platform-detection
Helps with large libraries when running the downloader multiple times.
Getting game details for many games takes a long time. Caching the game details makes the process much faster for subsequent runs.
Game details are cached to "$XDG_CACHE_HOME/lgogdownloader/gamedetails.json"
--update-cache creates and updates the cache.
--use-cache enables loading game details from cache.
--cache-valid specifies how long cached game details are considered valid
Configuration files and cookies are now stored in "$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/lgogdownloader"
if $XDG_CONFIG_HOME is not set it will use "$HOME/.config/lgogdownloader"
XML files are now stored in "$XDG_CACHE_HOME/lgogdownloader/xml"
if $XDG_CACHE_HOME is not set it will use "$HOME/.cache/lgogdownloader/xml"
API::getGameDetails now has a parameter to enable duplicate handling (default: false)
The duplicate handler applies a language id flag on the original installer so it shows support for multiple languages
Downloader uses duplicate handler by default
Added --no-duplicate-handling option to disable duplicate handler
Version check before download now works without local XML data. However it is much slower without the XML data because it calculates MD5 for the files
Some changes to config.h
- Removed "bHelp" from config because it was not needed
- Changed "bNoColor" to "bColor"
- Changed "bNoUnicode" to "bUnicode"
