A script for easy integration with SteamPlay

[pan-mroku]

Here's a script that can be included in Steam launch options, so EDMarketConnector is ran automatically with the game. It is advisable to close it manually when exiting the game, so it closes cleanly.

#!/bin/bash

VIRTUALENV_DIR="venv"

DIR=`dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}"`
cd $DIR

if [ -e "$VIRTUALENV_DIR"/bin/activate ]; then
		source ./"$VIRTUALENV_DIR"/bin/activate
fi

./EDMarketConnector.py > log_`date +"%Y_%m_%d_%H%M"` 2>&1 &
disown
cd $OLDPWD

Save it as for instance venvandlog.sh in your EDMarketConnector directory, enable execution permission chmod +x venvandlog.sh and put <path to your EDMarketConnector directory>/venvandlog.sh; %command% into steam launch options of the game.

hi @pan-mroku is edmcoverlay2 dead? I can't get it to work and it looked like the last branch for gtk support was never merged into your main. I forked your repo, merged the gtk changes and tested, doesn't seem to overlay anything that I can see though it says it works. Sorry for necroing this, I couldn't figure out how to reach you based off your git profile.

Turns out on GitHub I had to enable issues in settings for them to appear
Let's move to https://github.com/pan-mroku/edmcoverlay2/issues

Main branch should be working, I use it regularly
