# wyvern ![](https://img.shields.io/crates/v/wyvern.svg?style=flat-square) [![builds.sr.ht status](https://builds.sr.ht/~nicohman/wyvern.svg)](https://builds.sr.ht/~nicohman/wyvern?)

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](https://git.sr.ht/~nicohman/eidolon), so that it automatically registers installed games to eidolon.

The GitHub repo is a mirror of the main [sr.ht](https://git.sr.ht/~nicohman/wyvern) repository.

## Installation

Wyvern is available on [crates.io](https://crates.io/crates/wyvern), installable via cargo:

`cargo install wyvern`

You can download a binary that's automatically built from the latest git commit [on my website](https://demenses.net/downloads). 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](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/wyvern), helpfully maintained by
[@PinkCathodeCat@cathoderay.tube](https://cathoderay.tube/users/PinkCathodeCat).
In addition, you can install it as a snap [from snapcraft.io](https://snapcraft.io/wyvern).

### Dependencies

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
