This is the latest PortMaster-GUI, this is quite buggy.

WARNING

This can fuck your shit up, you have been warned.

WARNING

This release changes a few things under the hood, in the past port files had a <portname>.port.json file in it, this was done to allow ports to share port directories. This was removed when we moved to the new repo format. The script on first run will rename these files if it can do it safely. New ports that are downloaded will have the file changed before it is installed.

This also adds support for gamelist.xml on AmberELEC and ArkOS. My JELOS install broke and i need to test it there before I enable it here.

None of the ports currently have the gamelist.xml data in them so it wont currently populate that data. I will post a few ports I have updated to include this data for people to test out.

To install this version you can do it via harbourmaster:

./harbourmaster --no-check install "https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1208662811992006676/1208662826571534366/PortMaster.zip?ex=65e419f9&is=65d1a4f9&hm=ed8808f4b8c0358ff82211852c8510ef3790839fc2677ea1199cf67d8aab0fb4&"

or place the below PortMaster.zip into:
<path to>/PortMaster/autoinstall/

It will automatically install this version when you launch it on device.

📎 PortMaster.zip

#

These ports have been updated to include the new gameinfo.xml, some include cover images:

You can install them via harbourmaster or placing them like above into the autoinstall directory.

so, let's say i install banana duck directly via harbourmaster (using instructions above), will that overwrite my current banana duck port? and what differences should i expect to see? like, will it delete the port.json file file, add a cover image, etc?

dull girder Feb 18, 2024, 10:54 AM

It should have a cover.png, and a gameinfo.xml in the bananaduck port directory. If you're using ArkOS or AmberELEC it should've filled out the gamelist.xml entry for that game.

I see you still have the old marathon ports installed, so thats great. 🙂

dull girder I see you still have the old marathon ports installed, so thats great. 🙂

yeah ... cannot remember what i did with marathon. i think i might have rolled the new ports into the old structure or something wierd -- so don't trust that one

dull girder Feb 18, 2024, 11:15 AM

#

the new one has as a separate directory per port.

#

The reason we had the <portname>.port.json was because marathon shared the alephone port directory. since only 1 port has ever done that i felt it was okay to get rid of that possibility. 😄

#

But i still need to keep it compatible with that choice :\

fresh plaza Feb 18, 2024, 11:27 AM

so good edge case, i guess

dull girder Feb 18, 2024, 11:28 AM

#

ports_info.json is used to figure out a port when there is no port.json file available. It also finds renamed bash scripts, and script directories with no bash scripts. 😄

wintry shore Feb 18, 2024, 1:05 PM

#

Which ports currently have covers and use this?

dull girder Feb 18, 2024, 1:05 PM

#

Currently none on the repo. 😄

#

But I have prepared every port with the new info needed.

#

Once the gui update goes live I can push that out.

wintry shore Feb 18, 2024, 1:06 PM

#

Cool

#

Lol if I go to manage ports, celeste shows up with no info

dull girder Feb 18, 2024, 1:08 PM

#

Celeste isn’t on PortMaster. 😅

wintry shore Feb 18, 2024, 1:08 PM

#

Precisely

#

Looks like you're getting everything in ports folder regardless of if it's legitimate

dull girder Feb 18, 2024, 1:08 PM

#

Of course.

#

Infact PortMaster knows about Celeste and a few other ports that haven’t been released. 😎

#

But it doesn’t have artwork.

#

Nor porting information. You can still uninstall it.

wintry shore Feb 18, 2024, 1:10 PM

#

I mean, do you need the artwork?

#

Cuz I have artwork.

dull girder Feb 18, 2024, 1:10 PM

Nope. Where would it go?

This horrible file is used to reconstruct broken port installations.

GitHub

PortMaster-Info/ports_info.json at main · PortsMaster/PortMaster-Info

This is a repo for some files, this is not a db. Contribute to PortsMaster/PortMaster-Info development by creating an account on GitHub.

#

It’s 3 months out of date though. 😂

#

I need to update it. I need to make it automated though. I’m thinking the new repo can feed it the info it needs.

#

You can literally delete the port.json file from a port and it will recreate it. If you rename a bash script it can mostly figure out what port it belongs to.

#

It’s pretty robust. That’s what all those warnings are about unknown ports.

There is a new PortMaster-GUI version out.

This adds support for muOS v10 and RG35XX PLUS/H and port architectures.

Currently we now support armhf and aarch64.
I have fixed a small thing or two with the gamelist.xml generation but not too much done, sorry.
Hopefully I can iron out a few more issues with that this weekend and push out the big update which will add all the cover artwork/gamelist info.

This new version now supports a more robust release system, i now have stable, beta and alpha versions. Alpha is only accessible from the secret menu.

The new update also comes with a small caveat, you cannot downgrade in the software back to stable for now

You can always downgrade by downloading an older version of PortMaster).

@hereHi all,

I have released a new PortMaster Beta, it includes fixes for muOS, and adds multi-arch runtime support.

PortMaster now includes xdelta3 for patching ports, and we also have some helper code for setting up gl4es.

if [ -f "${controlfolder}/libgl_${CFW_NAME}.txt" ]; then 
  source "${controlfolder}/libgl_${CFW_NAME}.txt"
else
  source "${controlfolder}/libgl_default.txt"

Hi everyone, its me again.

I have updated PortMaster-GUI to finalise the gamelist.xml code.

You can now go to Options -> Gamelist.xml update. and it will fetch the latest gameinfo data and cover/screenshot images.

Lots of ports are missing info (about 205 / 377 ports are done), we are working on something to allow people to see what ports need info added.

Let me know if you have any issues. It has been tested on:

✅ ArkOS
✅ AmberELEC

Porters we will update the info on writing gameinfo files, and @swift pewter has been working hard on an editor for them.

Small bug, you have to manually restart emulationstation after you update gamelist.xml. I'll fix it in the next release.

🙂
