Wyvern is a command-line tool written in rust that is meant to make downloading GOG games and associated activities easier and faster on linux. It features:
Downloading games
Installing games without need for the graphical installers
One-command updating of games to their latest versions, while only updating files that have changed between versions.
GOG Connect functionality so you can scan for and claim games without leaving the terminal
Syncing save files to a filesystem backup(with integration with cloud services being worked on).
Optional(compile with the 'eidolonint' feature) integration with eidolon, so that it automatically registers installed games to eidolon.
The GitHub repo is a mirror of the main sr.ht repository.
Wyvern is available on crates.io, installable via cargo:
cargo install wyvern
You can download a binary that's automatically built from the latest git commit on my website. If you want to, you can also build it from source if you have cargo installed easily:
```
git clone https://git.sr.ht/~nicohman/wyvern && cd wyvern
cargo install --path . --force
```
Plus, it's available on the AUR as wyvern, helpfully maintained by @PinkCathodeCat@cathoderay.tube. In addition, you can install it as a snap from snapcraft.io.
Wyvern has a few extra dependencies, but few are required: - rsync for save file syncing - innoextract for windows game installation - unzip for faster game installation
Run wyvern help for a list of commands:
