TeknoParrot per platform sorting Script using powershell

Klopjero · September 17, 2023

Greetings,

Sorting through the various platforms that are supported in Teknoparrot can be quite a chore.
I've written a script, that will plow through the games you have setup and sort them by platform so you can just drag and drop them into launchbox.

known issue:
- ~~game titles with : in string wil not create folder~~ (WIP) (fixed) - (script updated)

#Teknoparrot, game Sorting by platform script for use with launchbox
# The function of this script is to allow the user to scan for games that are set up in teknoparrot, sort them into platformsso that they can be added to Launchbox. 
# import the results using folder names. 
#load assembly fiels for file browser

#variables
#get teknoparrot location
Add-Type -AssemblyName System.Windows.Forms
$FolderBrowser = New-Object System.Windows.Forms.FolderBrowserDialog
$FolderBrowser.Description = 'Select the folder containing TeknoParrotUI.exe'
$result = $FolderBrowser.ShowDialog((New-Object System.Windows.Forms.Form -Property @{TopMost = $true }))
if ($result -eq [Windows.Forms.DialogResult]::OK){
$FolderBrowser.SelectedPath
} else {
exit
}
$Teknoparrot = $FolderBrowser.SelectedPath
$Teknoparrot
#Check if TeknoparrotUI.exe lives in $Teknoparrot
$found = Test-path $Teknoparrot\TeknoparrotUI.exe
    IF($found = $true) 
        { 
        Write-Host TheBird is alive matey!, plunderin yer games now, ship ahoy!
        $imports = Test-Path "$Teknoparrot\imports"
            IF($imports -eq $false)
                {
                new-item -ItemType Directory "$Teknoparrot\imports"
                } 
        #get your setup games, including platform and full game name
        $TPSetgames = Get-ChildItem $Teknoparrot\gameProfiles\*.xml | select-object -ExpandProperty BaseName
        foreach ($TPSetgame in $TPSetgames)
            {
            $TPSetgame
            [xml]$XML = Get-Content $Teknoparrot\GameProfiles\$TPSetgame.xml
            $gamenameraw = $xml.gameprofile.gamename
            #clean nasty unwanted characters from game name to allow for folder creation
            $gamename = $gamenameraw -replace ":",""
            $json = Get-content $Teknoparrot\descriptions\$TPSetgame.json -raw |ConvertFrom-Json  
            $platform = $json.platform
            $Tp2pt = test-path $Teknoparrot\imports\$platform\
                IF ($Tp2pt -eq $false)
                    { 
                    write-host creating new folder $Teknoparrot\imports\$platform\$gamename\$TPSetgame.xml
                    New-Item -ItemType Directory $Teknoparrot\imports\$platform -force
                    New-Item -itemType Directory $Teknoparrot\imports\$platform\$gamename -Force
                    New-Item -ItemType File $Teknoparrot\imports\$platform\$gamename\$TPSetgame.xml -Force
                    }

            }
        #open imports folder.
        Invoke-Item $Teknoparrot\imports
    }

teknoparrotfinder.ps1anyway, hope you find it usefull. any feedback would be nice.

I've been updating a bit. Also written a GUI for it.

When you click "where is teknoParrot button" a browse window will open

after that you can either Sort by platform or just Sort gun games, when it's done it will out put this folder structure

each sorted game is stored in its seperate folder which will simplify scraping.

I do have an issue though with my XAML.
it will only find images of my UI if I use absolute paths. and I can't get it to accept relative paths.
I would really appreciate the help
