drpg 0.0.7

Download and keep up to date your purchases from DriveThruRPG

dRPG downloads and keeps your purchases from DriveThruRPG up to date

Installation

This script is tested with Python 3.8 and requires Python 3.8 or newer to run.

You can install dRPG from PyPI:

pip install --user drpg
drpg --help  # or python -m drpg --help

Usage

1. Go to your account settings and generate a new application key.
2. Copy the key and run the script: drpg --token <YOUR_DRPG_TOKEN>.
3. Now just sit, relax and wait. Initial synchronization may take a while so why don't you grab a cup of tea or whatever your favourite beverage is. On consecutive runs the script will download only new and changed files which will be a way faster.

Advanced options

You can change where your files will be downloaded by using --library-path path/to/your/directory.

By default the script does not compare files by md5 checksum to save time. You can turn it on by using --use-checksums.

You can change a log level by using --log-level=<YOUR_LOG_LEVEL>. Choices are DEBUG, INFO, WARNING, ERROR, CRITICAL.

For more information, run the script with --help.

Roadmap

• Have a working scipt
• Allow to choose where to sync purchased products
• Allow for fast - based on modification timestamps - or strict - based on both modification timestamps and md5 checksums - comparison of synced and remote files
• Publish a stable release
  • Compatible with DriveThruRPG Library App v. 3.0.1.3
  • Document which official client version is the script compatible with
  • Decide on a versioning scheme - currently I'm considering using a CalVer with a version number matching the official client release date. For example version 2021.1.5 would be compatible with DriveThruRPG Library App v. 3.0.1.3 which was released on January 5, 2021 (see its changelog for release dates)
