# GOG Galaxy Integrations Python API

This Python library allows developers to easily build community integrations for various gaming platforms with GOG Galaxy 2.0.

- refer to our documentation

## Features

Each integration in GOG Galaxy 2.0 comes as a separate Python script and is launched as a separate process that needs to communicate with the main instance of GOG Galaxy 2.0.

The provided features are:

- multistep authorization using a browser built into GOG Galaxy 2.0
- support for GOG Galaxy 2.0 features:
- importing owned and detecting installed games
- installing and launching games
- importing achievements and game time
- importing friends lists and statuses
- importing friends recommendations list
- receiving and sending chat messages
- cache storage

## Platform Id's

Each integration can implement only one platform. Each integration must declare which platform it's integrating.

[List of possible Platform IDs](PLATFORM_IDs.md)

## Basic usage

Each integration should inherit from the :class:`~galaxy.api.plugin.Plugin` class. Supported methods like :meth:`~galaxy.api.plugin.Plugin.get_owned_games` should be overwritten - they are called from the GOG Galaxy client at the appropriate times.
Each of those methods can raise exceptions inherited from the :exc:`~galaxy.api.jsonrpc.ApplicationError`.
Communication between an integration and the client is also possible with the use of notifications, for example: :meth:`~galaxy.api.plugin.Plugin.update_local_game_status`.

```python
import sys
from galaxy.api.plugin import Plugin, create_and_run_plugin
from galaxy.api.consts import Platform
from galaxy.api.types import Authentication, Game, LicenseInfo, LicenseType

class PluginExample(Plugin):
def __init__(self, reader, writer, token):
super().__init__(
Platform.Test, # choose platform from available list
"0.1", # version
reader,
writer,
token
)

# implement methods

# required
async def authenticate(self, stored_credentials=None):
return Authentication('test_user_id', 'Test User Name')

# required
async def get_owned_games(self):
return [
Game('test', 'The Test', None, LicenseInfo(LicenseType.SinglePurchase))
]

def main():
create_and_run_plugin(PluginExample, sys.argv)

# run plugin event loop
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
```

## Deployment

The client has a built-in Python 3.7 interpreter, so integrations are delivered as Python modules.
In order to be found by GOG Galaxy 2.0 an integration folder should be placed in [lookup directory](#deploy-location). Beside all the Python files, the integration folder must contain [manifest.json](#deploy-manifest) and all third-party dependencies. See an [exemplary structure](#deploy-structure-example).

### Lookup directory

- Windows:

`%localappdata%\GOG.com\Galaxy\plugins\installed`

- macOS:

`~/Library/Application Support/GOG.com/Galaxy/plugins/installed`

### Logging
Root logger is already setup by GOG Galaxy to store rotated log files in:

- Windows:

`%programdata%\GOG.com\Galaxy\logs`

- macOS:

`/Users/Shared/GOG.com/Galaxy/Logs`

Plugin logs are kept in `plugin--.log`.
When debugging, inspecting the other side of communication in the `GalaxyClient.log` can be helpful as well.

### Manifest


Obligatory JSON file to be placed in an integration folder.

```json
{
"name": "Example plugin",
"platform": "test",
"guid": "xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx",
"version": "0.1",
"description": "Example plugin",
"author": "Name",
"email": "[email protected]",
"url": "https://github.com/user/galaxy-plugin-example",
"script": "plugin.py"
}
```

| property | description |
|---------------|---|
| `guid` | custom Globally Unique Identifier |
| `version` | the same string as `version` in `Plugin` constructor |
| `script` | path of the entry point module, relative to the integration folder |

### Dependencies

All third-party packages (packages not included in the Python 3.7 standard library) should be deployed along with plugin files. Use the following command structure:

```pip install DEP --target DIR --implementation cp --python-version 37```

For example, a plugin that uses *requests* could have the following structure:

```bash
installed
└── my_integration
   ├── galaxy
   │   └── api
   ├── requests
   │   └── ...
   ├── plugin.py
└── manifest.json
```
