|

I maintain this and other Home Assistant add-ons in my free time: keeping up with upstream changes, HA changes, and testing on real hardware takes a lot of time (and some money). I use around 5-10 of my >110 addons so regularly I install test machines (and purchase some test services such as vpn) that I don't use myself to troubleshoot and improve the addons
|
||||
|
||||
If this add-on saves you time or makes your setup easier, I would be very grateful for your support!

## About
|
||||
|
||||
[Free Games Claimer](https://github.com/vogler/free-games-claimer) : Claims free games periodically on
|
||||
This add-on is based on
|
||||
[Free Games Claimer Remaster](https://github.com/P-Adamiec/Free-Games-Claimer-Remaster).
|
||||
It can claim free games from:
|
||||
|
||||
- Epic Games Store
|
||||
- Amazon Prime Gaming
|
||||
- GOG
|
||||
- Live Games with Gold - planned
|
||||
- Steam
|
||||
- GamerPower-supported stores, when explicitly enabled
|
||||
|
||||
This addon is based on the docker image https://github.com/vogler/free-games-claimer
|
||||
For compatibility with previous add-on releases, the default store selection
|
||||
remains Epic Games, Prime Gaming, and GOG.
|
||||
|
||||
## Configuration
|
||||
## Web interface
|
||||
|
||||
Webui can be found at <http://homeassistant:6080> (NoVNC interface - currently has issues on some machines).
|
||||
The noVNC interface remains available on port `6080`:
|
||||
|
||||
### Options
|
||||
|
||||
| Option | Type | Default | Description |
|
||||
|--------|------|---------|-------------|
|
||||
| `CMD_ARGUMENTS` | str | `node epic-games ; node prime-gaming ; node gog` | Commands to run for claiming games |
|
||||
| `CONFIG_LOCATION` | str | `/config/config.env` | Location of the configuration file |
|
||||
|
||||
### Example Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
CMD_ARGUMENTS: "node epic-games ; node prime-gaming ; node gog"
|
||||
CONFIG_LOCATION: "/config/config.env"
|
||||
```text
|
||||
http://homeassistant:6080
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Environment Configuration
|
||||
It can be used for initial sign-in, CAPTCHA handling, or other manual browser
|
||||
interaction. Set `VNC_PASSWORD` in `config.env` to protect the VNC session.
|
||||
|
||||
All main configuration is done via the `config.env` file located at `/config/addons_config/free_games_claimer/config.env`.
|
||||
## Add-on options
|
||||
|
||||
If this file doesn't exist, it will be created at first boot with default settings.
|
||||
| Option | Default | Description |
|
||||
|--------|---------|-------------|
|
||||
| `CONFIG_LOCATION` | `/config/config.env` | Persistent environment configuration file |
|
||||
| `RUN_ONCE` | `true` | Run all selected claimers once, then stop the add-on as previous releases did |
|
||||
| `STORES` | empty | Optional comma-separated override, such as `epic,prime,gog,steam` |
|
||||
| `CMD_ARGUMENTS` | `node epic-games ; node prime-gaming ; node gog` | Deprecated compatibility option; recognized legacy command names are converted to `STORES` |
|
||||
| `env_vars` | `[]` | Additional environment variables passed to the add-on |
|
||||
|
||||
### Required Environment Variables
|
||||
### Run modes
|
||||
|
||||
Add these to your `config.env` file:
|
||||
With `RUN_ONCE: true`, the add-on performs one claiming pass and stops. This is
|
||||
the default and preserves the behavior of the former vogler-based add-on.
|
||||
|
||||
With `RUN_ONCE: false`, the remaster remains running and uses its internal
|
||||
scheduler. Set `SCHEDULER_HOURS` in `config.env` to control the interval.
|
||||
|
||||
## Environment configuration
|
||||
|
||||
The add-on keeps its configuration in `CONFIG_LOCATION`, which defaults to
|
||||
`/config/config.env`. From Home Assistant this is stored in the add-on's
|
||||
private `addon_configs` directory and can be edited with a compatible file
|
||||
browser add-on.
|
||||
|
||||
A template is created on first start. Common examples are:
|
||||
|
||||
```env
|
||||
# Epic Games Store
|
||||
# Preserve the former default selection
|
||||
STORES=epic,prime,gog
|
||||
|
||||
# Epic Games
|
||||
EG_EMAIL=your-email@example.com
|
||||
EG_PASSWORD=your-password
|
||||
EG_OTPKEY=
|
||||
|
||||
# Amazon Prime Gaming
|
||||
PG_EMAIL=your-amazon-email@example.com
|
||||
PG_PASSWORD=your-amazon-password
|
||||
PG_PASSWORD=your-password
|
||||
PG_OTPKEY=
|
||||
|
||||
# GOG (optional)
|
||||
# GOG
|
||||
GOG_EMAIL=your-gog-email@example.com
|
||||
GOG_PASSWORD=your-gog-password
|
||||
GOG_PASSWORD=your-password
|
||||
|
||||
# Notifications (optional)
|
||||
EMAIL_SMTP_HOST=smtp.gmail.com
|
||||
EMAIL_SMTP_PORT=587
|
||||
EMAIL_USER=notifications@example.com
|
||||
EMAIL_PASS=your-app-password
|
||||
EMAIL_TO=recipient@example.com
|
||||
# Optional Steam support
|
||||
STEAM_USERNAME=your-steam-username
|
||||
STEAM_PASSWORD=your-password
|
||||
|
||||
# Optional notifications
|
||||
NOTIFY=tgram://bot-token/chat-id
|
||||
# DISCORD_WEBHOOK=https://discord.com/api/webhooks/...
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Additional Options
|
||||
Existing variables such as `EG_EMAIL`, `EG_PASSWORD`, `PG_EMAIL`,
|
||||
`PG_PASSWORD`, `PG_OTPKEY`, `GOG_EMAIL`, `GOG_PASSWORD`, `SHOW`, `WIDTH`,
|
||||
`HEIGHT`, `TIMEOUT`, `LOGIN_TIMEOUT`, `DRYRUN`, and `NOTIFY` remain compatible.
|
||||
See the
|
||||
[upstream configuration reference](https://github.com/P-Adamiec/Free-Games-Claimer-Remaster#configuration)
|
||||
for all available settings.
|
||||
|
||||
For complete configuration options and advanced settings, see: https://github.com/vogler/free-games-claimer#configuration--options
|
||||
## Upgrade from version 1.8
|
||||
|
||||
### Important Notes
|
||||
Version 2.0 changes the application engine from
|
||||
`vogler/free-games-claimer` (Node.js, Playwright, and Firefox) to
|
||||
`P-Adamiec/Free-Games-Claimer-Remaster` (Python, nodriver, and Chromium).
|
||||
The add-on performs the following migration automatically on first start:
|
||||
|
||||
- **VNC Issues**: The NoVNC web interface is currently not working reliably on several machines
|
||||
- **Recommended**: Use the `config.env` file for configuration instead of the web interface
|
||||
- **Security**: Store credentials securely and consider using app-specific passwords where available
|
||||
1. The existing `config.env` remains at the same configured location.
|
||||
2. Legacy `epic-games.json`, `prime-gaming.json`, and `gog.json` claim history
|
||||
is imported into the remaster SQLite database at `/data/fgc.db`.
|
||||
3. Existing database rows are detected and are not duplicated if migration is
|
||||
retried.
|
||||
4. A pre-migration database backup is created when an existing `fgc.db` is
|
||||
present.
|
||||
5. All old files remain under `/data/data` for rollback or manual recovery.
|
||||
|
||||
### Custom Scripts and Environment Variables
|
||||
Browser sessions cannot be converted because the old add-on used a shared
|
||||
Firefox profile while the remaster uses separate Chromium profiles per store.
|
||||
Credentials remain available through `config.env`, but accounts that require
|
||||
interactive authentication may need a one-time login through noVNC after the
|
||||
upgrade. The old Firefox profile is retained and is never deleted.
|
||||
|
||||
This addon supports custom scripts and environment variables through the `addon_config` mapping:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Custom scripts**: See [Running Custom Scripts in Addons](https://github.com/alexbelgium/hassio-addons/wiki/Running-custom-scripts-in-Addons)
|
||||
- **env_vars option**: Use the add-on `env_vars` option to pass extra environment variables (uppercase or lowercase names). See https://github.com/alexbelgium/hassio-addons/wiki/Add-Environment-variables-to-your-Addon-2 for details.
|
||||
The external noVNC port remains `6080`, although the standalone remaster image
|
||||
normally uses port `7080`.
|
||||
|
||||
