Cross platform Amazon Games client, based on this research
Nile aims to be CLI and GUI tool for managing and playing games from Amazon.
Features
- Login to Amazon Account
- Download games
- Play games (with Wine/Proton on Linux)
- Play games using Bottles (
--bottleparameter)
Might not work
- Online games, that use
FuelPump(I don't have any game like that to test)
Purpose
This is my attempt to make Amazon Games useful for Linux users, who want to play titles obtained thanks to Prime membership.
Usage
At the moment, Nile is a command line application. If you are looking for graphical user interface, make sure to checkout
- Heroic Games Launcher - uses Nile as a backend for Amazon Games
- Lutris - has implementation really similar to what Nile provides
(Recommended) The bundled program is available on the releases page
If you wish to run nile from source, see instructions below.
Dependencies
Arch and derivatives (Manjaro, Garuda, EndeavourOS)
sudo pacman -S python-pycryptodome python-zstandard python-requests python-protobuf python-json5
Debian and derivatives (Ubuntu, Pop!_OS)
sudo apt install python3-pycryptodome python3-requests python3-zstandard python3-protobuf python3-json5
With pip
Do this after cloning the repo and cd into the directory Do not install if you installed dependencies through your package manager
This is NOT recommended as it can potentially collide with distribution packages source
new versions of pip will prevent you from doing it outside of virtual environment
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
Building PyInstaller executable
If you wish to test nile in Heroic flatpak you likely need to build the nile executable using pyinstaller
- Get pyinstaller
pip install pyinstaller
- Build the binary (assuming you are in the nile directory)
pyinstaller --onefile --name nile nile/cli.py
Contributing
I'm always open for contributors
black is used for code formatting
Setting up dev environment:
- Clone the repo
git clone https://github.com/imLinguin/nile - CD into the directory
cd nile - Setup virtual environment
python3 -m venv env - Install dependencies
- Run nile
./bin/nile
Prior work
This is based on Rodney's work here: https://github.com/derrod/twl.py Some of his code is implemented in nile, since nothing changed since then in terms of downloading and patching
