TipToi-dl

A linux CLI TipToi audiofile downloader.

Motivation

Ravensburger, the manufacturer of the famous TipToi offers a Windows and a Mac Program for downloading new audiofiles. As a Linux user you have to do that manually via their website which is not the best experience.

So I decided to build this little CLI that allows me to download and copy the audiofile for a new book onto my kids TipToi within seconds.

Setup

  1. Install uv if you have not already (see https://docs.astral.sh/uv/getting-started/installation/)
  2. Run uv tool install tiptoi-dl (or uv tool install git+https://github.com/Bouni/tiptoi-dl.git for the main branch)
  3. Run the app: tiptoi-dl

Usage

On start, tiptoi-dl loads the full catalog and shows it in a table.

Key Action
type in the search bar filter the catalog by name or product ID
Tab jump from the search bar to the table
↑ / ↓ select an entry
Enter show details of the selected entry
Ctrl+D download the .gme file of the selected entry
Ctrl+Q quit

If a TipToi pen is connected via USB and mounted, the .gme file is saved directly onto it. Otherwise it is saved into the current directory.
