I am currently working on a script to scrape the key information for all your Desura games (http://www.desura.com/collection).

The basic idea is that you can manually, scrape all or one game Key page(s).

Then, when the script knows that some specific game has a steam key, and/or a GOG key it can insert those icons in its row, to let you know. Then, if you click the icon, it would show you the keys, somehow.

INSTALL V2.7
Tested on Firefox and Chrome w/ Tampermoneky. Script requires Tampermonkey on Chrome.
Opera also has a Tampermonkey extension that should do the trick.
There is also a second Opera extension Violent Monkey, and two Safari extensions NinjaKit and GreaseKit which should work, but absolutely no testing has been done on them. And all three of them, at the time of this writing, lack the ability for me to add keys directly into the clipboard.

(People with old versions should auto update at some time, at least that is what is supposed to happen)

Released V2.7: Added export game download list.
Somehow it lost the ability to designate a file name, it was working a minute ago and then for no reason it stopped. Might just be for me, I did not touch the code.
Released V2.6: Made export more universal. Tested in FF and Chrome.
Released V2.5:

  • Fix game icon greyout incorrectly applying in some instances
  • Fix the menu resetting the selection when it should not a few times.
  • Added Total delete (technically should be the same as 'Clear Storage' but is unaffected by your current select, and will work if your data is corrupted)
  • Import/Export

Released V2.4: Stable, feature complete release.

  • Fixed some buttons not working bug
  • Prevent staring unscanned games
  • Fixed filter/searching collection screwing up the "new count", completely redesigned system.
  • Added processing counter, showing current number of games with scans in progress.
  • Added Main Menu:
    • Selection of additional filters to apply. (These filters, in addition to the ones normally on the Collection page also work for all mass script events. "Scan all", for example, scans the current selection only.)
    • Scan all unscanned
    • Unstar everything
    • Generic information and script use instructions.

Released V2.2.1: Fixed multiple issues that sometimes caused the key menus to be hidden by content on top of them.
Released V2.2:

  • Added check for GM_setClipboard capability, alternates to prompt(Allows script to work in all/most of the outdated userscript managers)
  • Wrapped key title in span.dcks_title, for use in prompt
  • Game Menu: Toggle Star, Clear Data
  • Shows current number of scans in progress

Released V2.1: Fixed the crashing during full scans.
Released V2.0: The remake for the changed site and merged the two versions into one.
Important: This is a very early version of the 2.x remake, and as such has a few bugs and loads of missing features. Most notable, in the browsers I have tested it on, moderate sized collections crash the browser/page when scanning all games. If you give the script a minute, it will correctly scan your entire library, but will never recover from this. Close the page and open a new one to see the results of the scan.


Old links V1.4 Userscripts.org Static Mirror Userscripts.org Static Mirror (FF)

Released V1.4: Old method: empty key text box (=== '') meant Not Yet Claimed, randomly did not work for some text boxes, even ones that were identical (as far as I could tell) to the ones it worked on. New method: check if button says "Get", if "Get" than Not Yet Claimed.
Released V1.3: Fixed the Options column to actually work.
Released Version 1.2

  • Fixed basic stats (number of games, number of new keys), so that it only appeared once
    • Added unscanned games to the "new" stat
  • I think the "Scan All" button appeared in two placed in the FF version, this is fixed now
  • I merged the code from the FF version with the Chrome version, so that adding jQuery is the only difference
    • Did not actually text the new additions on FF, but 90% sure it should work
  • Disable Scan All button while scanning, and replace the text with "Working..."
    • The dots change as it scans, so you know it is working
  • Clicking the "Option" column header toggles all non new and scanned games hidden
    • Was not able to test this fully, as I did not have any new or unscanned games
  • Fixed the key detail rows so that problems no longer occur when filtering.

On the Collection page - Does the TamperM extension show a "1" on it, denoting that that page had a userscript run on it? Click it, does it have the name of this script next to a Green circle?

If if does, try Ctrl+Shift+J, Is their some big error message?
All you should get is
"Tampermonkey started
event.returnValue is deprecated. Please use the standard event.preventDefault() instead. "

Here's one that doesn't require you to install Tamper Monkey. To install it, just save it as a file (with the name ending in .user.js), and then open Chrome's extension manager and drag and drop the file onto it.

It includes its own copy of jQuery and uses localStorage for persistent storage (instead of using GreaseMonkey storage).

Strange, FF Jquery works differentially, and has some problem with selecting two classes at the same time....
Anyways, FF done. Uploading now and editing OP.

Greasemonkey for FF, yes it works.
For chrome, I think it needs Tampermonkey, but someone released a port for it to work natively.

What browser/userscript extensions are you using?
It does not appear to recognize the Unicode character for one.
It looks like it is also having trouble with Jquery.toggle(), or the css "display:none;" property (as all they key detail pages are shown).
The data storage is obviously working, but for some reason it is not outputting the keys

When you add a Desura key to the collection, does it get used?

1 decade ago
Permalink

Comment has been collapsed.

if you try to use already used key, you will get a pop-up message that says "key is used by %username%" or something like this

so yes. it will be.

I'm really not understanding any of this lol. So when you use steam and origin keys, they convert into desura keys? Wait what...? I thought only Desura Keys were supposed to be used to turn into steam keys. SOMEONE EXPLAIN I AM TOTALLY CONFUSED.

This discussion is totally unrelated to my mod, right?
You can use Desura's collection page to add desura games to your account, using any valid Desura keys. Sometimes a key might be valid in both Steam and Desura, I think I remember some pre-order games I bought having a key that worked in multiple places.

Yes humble desura keys will work, any desura key will work. If you have a Steam or Origin key that the developer says also works in Desura, it will work as well (if he is right).

Its come up as a Steam key since before I used your script by the way, so this was kind of a non-related thing I'd just try and get an answer to :-p
