## Installation & Usage
Installation will place `bridge.exe` to `C:\bridge.exe` (if it's not already there) and create a Windows service. This service will automatically start when the prefix is used.
If you prefer not to use the service for any reason, please refer to the [Run without installing the service](#run-without-installing-the-service) section.
Installation will copy itself to `C:\windows\bridge.exe` and create a Windows service.
Logs are stored in `C:\windows\logs\bridge.log`.
#### Installing inside a prefix
##### Wine (~/.wine)
- Open terminal in `build`
- Run `$ wine cmd` and `C:\> install.bat`
- ![wine install](imgs/wine_install.gif)
- To remove, run `C:\> remove.bat`
- ![wine remove](imgs/wine_remove.gif)
- Note: Copying files are not required here.
- Double click `bridge.exe` and click `Install`.
- ![gui](docs/assets/gui.png)
- To remove, the same process can be followed, but click `Remove` instead.
##### Lutris
- Right click on the game and select `Browse files`
- ![lutris browse](imgs/lutris_browse.gif)
- Copy contents of `build` to the game's prefix `drive_c`
- ![lutris copy](imgs/lutris_copy.gif)
- To install open the console
- ![lutris console](imgs/lutris_console.gif)
- And run `C:\> install.bat` (make sure you are in `C:\`!)
- ![lutris install](imgs/lutris_install.gif)
- Click on a game and select `Run EXE inside Wine prefix`.
- ![lutris](docs/assets/lutris.png)
- The same process can be followed as in Wine.
##### Steam
- Open [Protontricks](https://github.com/Matoking/protontricks) and select the game you want to install the bridge to
- Select `Select the default wineprefix`
- Select `Browse files` and copy contents of `build` to the game's prefix `drive_c`
- Select `Run a Wine cmd shell` and run `C:\> install.bat`
- If you are not in `C:\`, type `c:` and press enter
- ![protontricks](imgs/steam_protontricks.png)
- Right click on the game and select `Properties`.
- Under `Set Launch Options`, add the following:
- ![bridge.sh](docs/assets/steam_script.png "Set Launch Options to the path of the bridge.sh")
- The `bridge.sh` script must be in the same directory as `bridge.exe`.
#### If you use Flatpak
- If you are running Steam, Lutris, etc. in a Flatpak, you will need to allow the bridge to access the `/run/user/1000/discord-ipc-0` file.
- If you are running Steam, Lutris, etc in a Flatpak, you will need to allow the bridge to access the `/run/user/1000/discord-ipc-0` file.
- ##### By using [Flatseal](https://flathub.org/apps/details/com.github.tchx84.Flatseal)
- Add `xdg-run/discord-ipc-0` under `Filesystems` category
- ![flatseal](imgs/flatseal_permission.png)
- ![flatseal](docs/assets/flatseal_permission.png)
- ##### By using the terminal
- Per application
- `flatpak override --filesystem=xdg-run/discord-ipc-0 <flatpak app name>`
- Globally
- `flatpak override --user --filesystem=xdg-run/discord-ipc-0`
## Run without installing the service
## macOS
If you prefer not to use the service, you can manually run `bridge.exe` within the Wine prefix.
This method is compatible with both Wine and Lutris.
In Lutris, you can achieve this by adding the path to `bridge.exe` in the `Executable` field under `Game options`. In `Arguments` field, be sure to include the _Windows_ path to the game's executable.
Example:
- Without bridge:
- Executable `/mnt/games/lutris/league-of-legends/drive_c/Riot Games/League of Legends/LeagueClient.exe`
- Arguments `--locale=en_US --launch-product=league_of_legends --launch-patchline=live`
- With bridge:
- Executable `/mnt/games/lutris/league-of-legends/drive_c/bridge.exe`
- Arguments `"C:\Riot Games\League of Legends\LeagueClient.exe" --locale=en_US --launch-product=league_of_legends --launch-patchline=live`
In Wine, all you need to do is run `bridge.exe`.
- When running the program manually without providing any arguments, it will simply initiate the bridge and wait indefinitely until it's closed.
## About macOS
The bridge works similarly on macOS as it does on Linux, but it can't be registered as a service due to TMPDIR limitations. macOS users must manually run `bridge.exe` when needed.
To run `bridge.exe` on macOS, navigate to its directory in the terminal and execute `wine bridge.exe`. (or double click it in the Finder)
On macOS, follow [these instructions](https://enderice2.github.io/rpc-bridge/installation.html#macos).
## Compiling from source
@ -109,24 +60,6 @@ To run `bridge.exe` on macOS, navigate to its directory in the terminal and exec
- Open a terminal in the directory that contains this file and run `make`.
- The compiled executable will be located in `build/bridge.exe`.
## Command line arguments
- `--install` - Installs the service
- `--remove` - Removes the service
- `--service` - Reserved for the service
- `[Target Executable]` - Starts the bridge and the game
- Example: `bridge.exe "C:\Riot Games\League of Legends\LeagueClient.exe" --locale=en_US --launch-product=league_of_legends --launch-patchline=live`
- Note: The game executable must be enclosed in quotes. The rest of the arguments are passed to the target executable.
## Debugging
The bridge will write the logs in `C:\bridge.log`.

Simple bridge that allows you to use Discord Rich Presence with Wine games/software on Linux/macOS.
[Download latest release](https://github.com/EnderIce2/rpc-bridge/releases/latest/download/bridge.zip "Recommended"){ .md-button .md-button--primary }
[Download latest pre-release](https://github.com/EnderIce2/rpc-bridge/releases "Unstable builds with experimental features"){ .md-button }
<!-- [Download latest build](https://github.com/EnderIce2/rpc-bridge/actions "Builds from the latest commits, here be dragons!"){ .md-button } -->
Works by running a small program in the background that creates a [named pipe](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/ipc/named-pipes) `\\.\pipe\discord-ipc-0` inside the prefix and forwards all data to the pipe `/run/user/1000/discord-ipc-0`.
This bridge takes advantage of the Windows service implementation in Wine, eliminating the need to run it manually.
These docs are for the latest stable release.
For v1.0, see [the original README](https://github.com/EnderIce2/rpc-bridge/blob/v1.0/README.md).

# Installation
Installation will copy itself to `C:\windows\bridge.exe` and create a Windows service.
Logs are stored in `C:\windows\logs\bridge.log`.
## Installing inside a prefix
### Wine (~/.wine)
- Double click `bridge.exe` and click `Install`.
- ![gui](assets/gui.png "rpc-bridge GUI")
- To remove, the same process can be followed, but click `Remove` instead.
### Lutris
- Click on a game and select `Run EXE inside Wine prefix`.
- ![lutris](assets/lutris.png "Lutris")
- The same process can be followed as in Wine.
### Steam
There are two ways to install the bridge on Steam.
#### Using bridge.sh[^1]
This method is recommended because it's easier to manage.
- Right click on the game and select `Properties`.
- Under `Set Launch Options`, add the following:
- ![bridge.sh](assets/steam_script.png "Set Launch Options to the path of the bridge.sh")
<sup><sub>Of course, you need to replace `/path/to/bridge.sh` with the actual path to the script.</sub></sup>
!!! info "Note"
`bridge.sh` must be in the same directory as `bridge.exe`.
#### Using Protontricks
- Open [Protontricks](https://github.com/Matoking/protontricks) and select the game you want to install the bridge to.
- Select `Select the default wineprefix`
- Select `Browse files` and copy contents of `build` to the game's prefix `drive_c`
- Select `Run a Wine cmd shell` and run `C:\> install.bat`
- If you are not in `C:\`, type `c:` and press enter
![protontricks](assets/steam_protontricks.png "If use have the option for 'Run an arbitrary executable (.exe/.msi/.msu), use it instead!")
!!! warning "If you use Flatpak"
If you are running Steam, Lutris, etc in a Flatpak, you will need to allow the bridge to access the `/run/user/1000/discord-ipc-0` file.
You can do this by using [Flatseal](https://flathub.org/apps/details/com.github.tchx84.Flatseal) or the terminal.
=== "Flatseal"
Add `xdg-run/discord-ipc-0` under `Filesystems` category
![flatseal](assets/flatseal_permission.png)
=== "Terminal"
- Per application
- `flatpak override --filesystem=xdg-run/discord-ipc-0 <flatpak app name>`
- Globally
- `flatpak override --user --filesystem=xdg-run/discord-ipc-0`
## macOS
If using the default Wine prefix (`~/.wine`), you can follow the same steps as in Wine.
Registering as a service [is not supported](https://github.com/EnderIce2/rpc-bridge/issues/1#issuecomment-2103423242 "Bridge can't get $TMPDIR unless is set with --rpc. See note below").
!!! info "Note"
Since macOS doesn't have `/proc/self/environ` and `$TMPDIR` is neither always set nor the same after reboots, so you will need to [add `--rpc "$TMPDIR"` to the `bridge.exe` arguments](https://github.com/EnderIce2/rpc-bridge/issues/1#issuecomment-2104797235).
If you don't encounter any issues, you can ignore this step.
## Run without installing the service
If you prefer not to use the service, you can manually run `bridge.exe` within the Wine prefix.
This method is compatible with both Wine and Lutris.
In Lutris, you can achieve this by adding the path to `bridge.exe` in the `Executable` field under `Game options`. In `Arguments` field, be sure to include the _Windows_ path to the game's executable.
=== "Without bridge"
```
Executable
/mnt/games/lutris/league-of-legends/drive_c/Riot Games/League of Legends/LeagueClient.exe
Arguments
--locale=en_US --launch-product=league_of_legends --launch-patchline=live
```
=== "With bridge"
```
Executable
/mnt/games/lutris/league-of-legends/drive_c/bridge.exe
Arguments
"C:\Riot Games\League of Legends\LeagueClient.exe" --locale=en_US --launch-product=league_of_legends --launch-patchline=live
```
In Wine, all you need to do is run `bridge.exe` and select `Start`.
## Compiling from source
- Install the `wine`, `x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc` and `make` packages.
- Open a terminal in the directory that contains this file and run `make`.
- The compiled executable will be located in `build/bridge.exe`.
