An application that manages your Switch games backups. It scans your local files, and provides insights, like missing update and DLC files. It can automatically rename and organize games and update to folders with standard naming format. '''Note:''' This app doesn't support scanning your Switch SD card, only your local game files on your computer. ==Features== *Cross platform, works on Windows / Mac / Linux. *GUI and command line interfaces. *Scan your local switch backup library (NSP/NSZ/XCI). *Read titleId/version by decrypting NSP/XCI/NSZ (requires prod.keys). *If no prod.keys present, fallback to read titleId/version by parsing file name (example: <code>Super Mario Odyssey [0100000000010000][v0].nsp</code>). *Lists missing update files (for games and DLC). *Lists missing DLCs. *Automatically organize games per folder. *Rename files based on metadata read from NSP. *Delete old update files (in case you have multiple update files for the same game, only the latest will remain). *Delete empty folders. *Zero dependencies, all crypto operations implemented in Go. ==User guide== ===Keys (optional)=== Having a prod.keys file will allow you to ensure the files you have a correctly classified. The app will look for the "prod.keys" file in the app folder or under ${HOME}/.switch/ You can also specify a custom location in the settings.json (see below) '''Note:''' Only the header_key, and the key_area_key_application_XX keys are required. ===Settings=== During the App first launch a "settings.json" file will be created, that allows for granular control over the Apps execution. You can customize the folder/file re-naming, as well as turn on/off features, and set specific title ids of DLC or updates to ignore. <pre> { "versions_json_url": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/blawar/titledb/master/versions.json", "versions_etag": "W/\"c3f5ecb3392d61:0\"", "titles_json_url": "https://tinfoil.media/repo/db/titles.json", "titles_etag": "W/\"4a4fcc163a92d61:0\"", "prod_keys": "", "folder": "", "scan_folders": [], "gui": false, "debug": false, # Deprecated, no longer works "check_for_missing_updates": true, "check_for_missing_dlc": true, "hide_missing_games": false, # hides the missing games tab "hide_demo_games": false, # hide demo games from the list on the missing games tab "organize_options": { "create_folder_per_game": false, "dlc_folder": "", # ex change to DLC to place DLC files in a separate folder "updates_folder": "", # ex change to Updates to place update folder in a separate folder "rename_files": false, "delete_empty_folders": false, "delete_old_update_files": false, "folder_name_template": "{TITLE_NAME}", "switch_safe_file_names": true, "file_name_template": "{TITLE_NAME} ({DLC_NAME})[{TITLE_ID}][v{VERSION}]", "process_when_missing_base_game": false # if you want to organize updates and dlcs without having the base game present }, "scan_recursively": true, "gui_page_size": 100, "ignore_dlc_updates": false, "ignore_dlc_title_ids": [], # Enter as a list of string, e.g. ["1234567890ABCDEF", "1234567890ABCDEE", "1234567890ABCDFF"] "ignore_update_title_ids": [] # Enter as a list of string, e.g. ["1234567890ABCDEF", "1234567890ABCDEE", "1234567890ABCDFF"] "ignore_file_types": [] # List of file types that should ignore the 'file type is not supported message', e.g. ["txt"] } </pre> ===Naming template=== The following template elements are supported: *{TITLE_NAME} - game name *{TITLE_ID} - title id *{VERSION} - version id (only applicable to files) *{VERSION_TXT} - version number (like 1.0.0) (only applicable to files) *{REGION} - region *{TYPE} - impacts DLCs/updates, will appear as ["UPD","DLC"] *{DLC_NAME} - DLC name (only applicable to DLCs) ===How to use=== '''Windows:''' *Extract the zip file. *Double click the Exe file. *If you want to use command line mode, update the settings.json with <code>'GUI':false</code>. **Open <code>cmd</code>. **Run <code>switch-library-manager.exe</code>. **Optionally -f <code>X:\folder\containing\nsp\files"</code>. **Optionally add <code>-r</code> to recursively scan for nested folders. **Edit the settings.json file for additional options.
