Command Line Interface

How to use the CLI

Steam ROM Manager supports the following options/commands in its command line interface:

• --help. Displays the command list and their usage information.
• --version. Displays the current SRM version.
• list. Displays the names, ids, and enabled statuses of all parsers currently managed by SRM. For example it might output:

• enable. Command to enable parsers, either by ids or by names:

  • enable 16789897872682375 159322320831491591
  • enable --names "Brawl Mods" "Slippi (GC, Wii)"
  • enable --all

• disable. Command to disable parsers, either by ids or by names:

  • disable 16789897872682375 159322320831491591
  • disable --names "Brawl Mods" "Slippi (GC, Wii)"
  • disable --all

• add. Runs all enabled parsers and saves apps to steam.

• remove. Runs all enabled parsers and removes apps from steam.

• nuke. Removes all of SRM changes to your steam library.

Notes and limitations

• Make sure Steam is fully exited before using add/remove/nuke. If Steam is running apps will be added/removed, but categories won't.

• The portable version of SRM for windows can't output text to the command line because of a limitation in electron-builder. Commands will still run, but no text will be outputted by the CLI, making it much less useful.
