SteamDB-FreeGames-dotnet

Update:

I've already found a simple, no browser extensions reqired solution to solve the captcha, it's been runnning for months with no critical error, but I'm still not planning to update this repo.

No longer maintained, head to wiki for more information.

A CLI tool that

Fetches free games info from SteamDB
Sends notifications through Telegram, Email, Bark, QQ, PushPlus, DingTalk, PushDeer and Discord
Auto claim fetched free games with ASF IPC

Demo Telegram Channel @azhuge233_FreeGames

Seems that SteamDB really don't want people scraping their site, check Things should be aware of before using.

Build

Install dotnet 6.0 SDK first, you can find installation packages/guides here.

Publish

dotnet publish -c Release -o /your/path/here -r [win10-x64/osx-x64/linux-x64] --sc

Usage

Set your Telegram Bot token and chat ID in config.json

{
	"TelegramToken": "xxxxxx:xxxxxx",
	"TelegramChatID": "xxxxxxxx",
}

Check wiki for more notification method descriptions.

ASF Auto Claim

To use auto claim, you have to set up ASF IPC server first, you can find the instructions here.

Set EnableASF to true to turn on auto claim, then fill your IPC address in ASFIPCUrl

{
	"EnableASF":  true,
  	"ASFIPCUrl": "https://my.domain.com or with IP address and port number(didn't test)",
}

Auto claim uses "addlicense asf SubID/AppID" as the default addlicense command, if you have any customized prefix or ASF just simply returns "wrong command" kind of message, you may need to manually change the command string in Models/String/ASFStrings.cs.

Check wiki for more ASF related config variables descriptions.

Repeatedly running

The program will not add while/for loop, it's a scraper. To schedule the program, use cron.d in Linux(macOS) or Task Scheduler in Windows.

Tested on Windows Server 2019/2022, macOS Catalina 10.15.6.
