Steam Games Listing

[LucaVazz]

Inspired by

If a user has their Steam Account linked to their Discord Account, they have their Steam ID / Username shown in their Profile.
But to get to the list of the games in their library it needs some clicks. Especially if you would want to compare it across multiple users.

Lets shrink it down to one command ;)

suggested Commands

• steamgames @LucaVazz: sends a listing of all steam games which the mentioned user has in their library. (Ignoring Mentions which come after the first one for clarity)
• commonsteamgames @LucaVazz: sends a listing of all steam games which all the mentioned users and the sender of the message have in their library.

Ressources

• Discord API: .../users/<userId>/profile returns something like

  {
      ...,
      "connected_accounts":  [
              { "verified": true, "type": "steam", "id": "76561193788269995", "name": "LVreg" }
      ]
  }

  • discord.py has a http client which is instanced on self.bot.http and handles all the nitty gritty of the Discord API (i.e. Authentication) automatically
• Steam Web API: Documentation for GetOwnedGames

we should try to do subcommands. IMO. something like

!n.steam games
!n.steam commongames @LucaVazz @Yamitatsu @Squirrel

But I like the idea. even better would be rather then tagging everyone

!n.steam commongames @lfg

since people tag as that in theory when they wanna play games.

Subcommands sound like a good Idea, didn't think of that.

And for !n.steam commongames @lfg (or in general if a group is mentioned) a separate output would probably be best with a statistic like

- Factorio (40 members)
- Rocket League (35 members)
- Dota 2 (24 members)

And maybe alias it as something like !n.steam lfggames

or have a different command completely.

!n.steam rolecommongames lfg

or

!n.steam rolecommon lfg

? Something like that.

I think it is a better UX if there is just one command to which you can pass any mentions (i.e. both roles and single members) and the bot resolved it for you.

Either is fine. Just pointing out options. But I agree it'd be nice to have feature.

Nice to hear, then I will start working on it next week.
