# Steamodd
Steam odds and ends
## What is this?
Steamodd is a comprehensive Python library designed to interface with the Steam API, providing a simplified and easy to use set of tools for developers to access and manage the Steam API.
- **Steam API interface wrappers**: Interact with the various endpoints of the Steam API.
- **Steam inventory manager (SIM)**: Manage and manipulate Steam user inventory data.
- **VDF serializer**: Convert Valve Data Format (VDF) files to Python dictionaries and vice versa.
## Requirements
- Python 3+
## Installation
Install via pip for easy access (ideally within a virtual environment):
```sh
$ pip install steamodd
```
For manual installation, use the standard setuptools module:
```sh
$ python setup.py install
```
## How do I use this?
After installation, you can import `steamodd` into your Python project and start interacting with the Steam API. Make sure to have a valid Steam API key for actions that need authentication.
### Fetching a User's Game Library
```python
from steam.api import interface
# Fetch games of user with id 76561198017493014 and include all application information
games = interface('IPlayerService').GetOwnedGames(steamid=76561198017493014, include_appinfo=1)
# Accessing game count
print(games['response']['game_count']) # Output: 249
```
### Working with Steam Apps
```python
from steam.apps import app_list
apps = app_list()
# Check if a game is in the app list
print('Dota 2' in apps) # Output: True
```
### Items and Inventory Handling
```python
from steam.items import inventory, schema
# Fetching inventory for a given app id, e.g., Dota 2 with id 570
inv = inventory(76561198017493014, 570)
# Iterating over inventory items
for item in inv:
print(item.name)
# Fetching and working with item schema
item_schema = schema(440) # Team Fortress 2
for item in item_schema:
if item.name == 'Defiant Spartan':
print(item.type) # Output: 'Hat'
```
