Nitrox.Discovery

NuGet

Discovers the path to an installed game from a given game name. Supports the most popular game stores and on both Windows and Linux.

Use with MSBuild (minimized setup)

<Target Name="FindGameAndIncludeReferences" BeforeTargets="ResolveAssemblyReferences" Condition="'$(_NitroxDiscovery_TaskAssembly)' != ''">
    <DiscoverGame GameName="Subnautica"> 
        <Output TaskParameter="GamePath" PropertyName="GameDir" />
    </DiscoverGame>
    <Error Condition="'$(GameDir)' == ''" Text="Failed to find the game 'Subnautica' on your machine" />

    
    <ItemGroup>
        <Reference Include="MyGameDll">
            <HintPath>$(GameDir)\bin\MyGameDll.dll</HintPath>
        </Reference>
    </ItemGroup>
</Target>

Condition="'$(_NitroxDiscovery_TaskAssembly)' != ''" is needed so Visual Studio can still load Nuget packages without requiring DiscoverGame task to exist!

These options are available for DiscoverGame task

<Target Name="FindGameAndIncludeReferences" BeforeTargets="ResolveAssemblyReferences" Condition="'$(_NitroxDiscovery_TaskAssembly)' != ''">
    <PropertyGroup>
        
        <GameName>MY_GAME</GameName>
    </PropertyGroup>
    <DiscoverGame GameName="$(GameName)">
        <Output TaskParameter="GamePath" PropertyName="GameDir" />
    </DiscoverGame>
    <Error Condition="'$(GameDir)' == ''" Text="Failed to find the game '$(GameName)' on your machine" />
    <PropertyGroup>
        <GameDir>$(GameDir)\</GameDir>
    </PropertyGroup>
    
    <Message Importance="high" Text="Game found at: '$(GameDir)'" />

    
    <ItemGroup>

            <HintPath>$(GameDir)bin\MyGameDll.dll</HintPath>
        </Reference>
    </ItemGroup>
</Target>

You can append other references on a per project basis like this

<Target Name="MoreGameReferences" AfterTargets="FindGameAndIncludeReferences">
    <ItemGroup>
        <Reference Include="SomeOtherGameDll">
            <HintPath>$(GameDir)bin\SomeOtherGameDll.dll</HintPath>
        </Reference>
    </ItemGroup>
</Target>
