Install your NSP directly on Switch with Tinfoil without using your PC.
Tinson creates for you a JSON file for Tinfoil, the NSP installer for Nintendo Switch. You can insert as many NSP (hosted on Google Drive) as you want and install them directly on Switch, you can also add directly an entire folder.
This is a better and revisioned version of Tinson. This version doesn't require a server with PHP but can be hosted on Heroku (or Glitch) completely free.
Features
- Manage a list of NSPs from everywhere and from every devices.
- You don't have to clone the NSP on your drive. Just copy here the public link.
- Add an entire folder of NSP. Tinfoil will display them correctly.
- Install NSP without cable and without rely on 3rd services
User guide
Prerequisites
- A Nintendo Switch with Homebrew access.
- Tinfoil installed.
Using the demo version
A Tinson instance was built on Heroku: Tinson. You can either use the demo version or clone the project and install it on your Heroku account.
How to use it:
- Register/Login (The registration is absolutely anonymous. Those are required for edit your list again.)
- Add some Google Drive links to your dashboard. If you prefer you can also add directly a Google drive folder link just remember to click on the toggle.
- Copy the link in your dashboard (should be something like tinson.herokuapp.com/v1/:random_string) and insert it in Tinfoil's file browser.
Tinfoil will auto upload the file if you'll insert new games in the list. So the 3rd step is required just for the first time.
Create your own Tinson
Required Steps:
- Clone the repository.
- Run
$ npm installin root folder and in client folder. - Create a mongoDB and insert its URI in .env.
- Optional: Insert a Google API key with Google Drive permissions on .env too (this is just for display size for every file in your list directly on Tinfoil.)
Setup it on Heroku:
- Create an Heroku account.
- Clone my project and create an Heroku application with it.
- Install the add-on
mLab MongoDB. - Optional: Insert a GOOGLE_API key with Google Drive permissions on .env too (this is just for display size for every file in your list directly on Tinfoil.)
If you don't know how to do this it is recommended to take a look at the Heroku documentation which is pretty clear and easy to follow.
