loathingKernel 5ce9a2edfa RareCore: Handle exception when fetching non-asset games 
https://discord.com/channels/826881530310819914/884510635642216499/1111321692703305729
There is a tab character in the appId of Fallout New Vegas: Honest Hearts DLC, this breaks metadata storage
on Windows as they can't handle tabs at the end of the filename (?)
Legendary and Heroic are also affected, but it completed breaks Rare, so dodge it for now pending a fix.

Why Rare?

  • Runs natively, and supports most of the major platforms
  • Gets out of your way when you don't need it, allowing you to enjoy your games
  • Tries to be as lightweight as we can make it while still offering a feature-full experience
  • Integrates seamlessly with legendary as both projects are developed in Python
  • Packages, packages everywhere

Issues

If you run into any issues, please report it by creating an issue on GitHub or on Discord: https://discord.gg/YvmABK9YSk

Installation

Linux

Flatpak

Rare is available as a flatpak. See rare.

Install it via:

flatpak install flathub io.github.dummerle.rare

Run it via:

flatpak run io.github.dummerle.rare

Arch based

There are some AUR packages available:

  • rare - for stable releases
  • rare-git - for the latest features, which are not in a stable release

Debian based

Note:

  • pypresence is an optional package. You can install it from DUR or with pip.
  • Do not wonder if some icons look strange, because the official python3-qtawesome package is too old. Many icons were replaced.

macOS

There is a .dmg file available in releases page.

Note: When you launch it, you will see an error, that the package is from an unknown source. You have to enable it manually in Settings -> Security and Privacy. Otherwise, Gatekeeper will block Rare from running.

You can also use pip.

Windows

  • There is a small beta tool for Windows: Rare Updater, which installs and updates rare with a single click

  • Rare is available as a Chocolatey package on Windows. You can install rare with the following one-liner:

    choco install rare

Packages

In releases page, AppImages are available for Linux, a .msi file for windows and a .dmg file for macOS.

Latest packages

In the actions tab you can find packages for the latest commits.

Note: They might be unstable.

Installation via pip (platform independent)

Execute pip install Rare for all users, or pip install Rare --user for the current user only.

Linux and Mac: execute rare in your terminal.

Windows: execute pythonw -m rare in cmd

It is possible to create a desktop link, or a start menu link. Execute the command above with --desktop-shortcut or --startmenu-shortcut option, alternatively you can create them in the settings.

Note about $PATH:

On Linux:

/home/user/.local/bin must be in your PATH.

On Windows:

PythonInstallationDirectory\Scripts must be in your PATH.

On Mac:

/Users/user/Library/Python/3.x/bin must be in your PATH.

Run from source

  1. Clone the repo: `git clone https://github.com/Dummerle/Rare
  2. Change your working directory to the project folder: cd Rare
  3. Run pip install -r requirements.txt to install all required dependencies. If you want to be able to use the automatic login, run pip install -r optional_requirements.txt If you are on Arch you can run sudo pacman --needed -S python-wheel python-setuptools python-pyqt5 python-qtawesome python-requests python-psutil
  4. Run python3 -m rare

Contributing

There are several options to contribute.

  • If you know Python and PyQt, you can implement new features (Some ideas are in the projects tab).
  • You can translate the application in your language: Check our transifex page for that.

More information is available in CONTRIBUTING.md.
