4. Copy config.example.json5 to config.json5, change settings in it according to the comment.

Docker (For Linux only)

1. Create a folder for record and config, let's say folder name is /var/GamesHub

   Please note that this folder name must be absolute path.

   export GAMES_HUB_FOLDER_NAME=/var/GamesHub
   mkdir -p "$GAMES_HUB_FOLDER_NAME"

2. Download config.example.json5 and rename to config.json5 into the folder created in step 1, change settings in it according to the comment.

   wget -c "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lupohan44/GamesHub/main/config.example.json5" -O "$STEAM_DB_FOLDER_NAME/config.json5" || curl -o "$STEAM_DB_FOLDER_NAME/config.json5" "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lupohan44/GamesHub/main/config.example.json5"

3. Run with docker

   docker pull lupohan44/games_hub:latest && docker run -v $GAMES_HUB_FOLDER_NAME:/home/wd --rm lupohan44/games_hub:latest

   All changes by script inside docker will be permanently save to this folder.
   Each enabled official plugin should create a folder in {WORKING_DIR}/plugins/{PLUGIN_PACKAGE_NAME} to store runtime files and configs

4. Change plugins' config files from step 3

5. Rerun step 3

Known issue

1. Playwright does not support CentOS. (issue)
   • Use docker

Develop plugins

1. Think a package name for your plugin, format should be like gameshub.unofficial.{plugin_purpose}.{plugin_description}[.{your_name}]
2. Copy one of the official plugin in plugins folder and rename it to your package name
3. Follow the official plugin's structure and modify it to your needs
