Package Exports

steam-categories

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (steam-categories) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

steam-categories

Super basic Node.js library to help with modifying the new Steam categories

npm i steam-categories

Notes:

Launching Steam while the database is still in use will cause Steam to delete it. So use close() when you're done.
read() will throw an exception if you try to access the database whilst Steam is open.
Make sure to catch it or use isClosed() / isOpen()

Usage:

const SteamCat = require('steam-categories');
const path = require('path');

// %LOCALAPPDATA%/Steam/htmlcache/Local Storage/leveldb
const levelDBPath = path.join(process.env['localappdata'], 'Steam', 'htmlcache', 'Local Storage', 'leveldb');

// Supply leveldb path and Steam3 ID of user whose collections to edit
const cats = new SteamCat(levelDBPath, '88089999');

// Read user collections
cats.read().then((collections) => {
  // Get collection "test"
  const testCollection = cats.get('test');
  console.info(testCollection);
  /*
  {
    key: 'user-collections.test',
    timestamp: 1573477978,
    value: {
      id: 'test',
      name: 'Test Collection',
      added: []
    }
  }
  */

  // Add DOOM to "test" collection
  testCollection.value.added.push(379720);

  // Change the name
  testCollection.value.name = '👀';

  // Create a new collection with Counter-Strike, DOOM, and Half-Life 2
  cats.add('someUniqueKey', {
    name: 'Super Cool Collection',
    added: [10, 220, 379720]
  });

  // Save collections
  cats.save().then(() => {
    console.info('yay!');
    // Close the database when you're done
    cats.close().then(() => {
      console.info('Database closed, safe to open Steam again.');
    });
  });
}).catch((err) => {
  // Error reading database (most likely locked)
  console.error(err.message);
});
