Installation
- Best way to install it is using pip3:
pip3 install gplaycliorpip3 install gplaycli --userif you are non-root - Cleanest way is using virtualenv:
virtualenv gplaycli; cd gplaycli; source bin/activate, then eitherpip install gplaycliorgit clone https://github.com/matlink/gplaycli && pip3 install ./gplaycli/. Make surevirtualenvis initialized with Python 3. If it's not, usevirtualenv -p python3.
Debian installation
Releases are available here https://github.com/matlink/gplaycli/releases/ as debian packages. If you prefer not to use debian packaging, check the following method.
Requirements
Works on GNU/Linux or Windows with pip and Python 3. First of all, ensure these packages are installed on your system :
- python3-dev package ->
apt-get install python3-dev - libffi package ->
apt-get install libffi-dev - libssl-dev ->
apt-get install libssl-dev(for pypi'scryptographycompilation) - python (>=3)
Then, you need to install it with some needed libraries using either pip3 install gplaycli or python3 setup.py install after cloning it, then it will be available with gplaycli command. If you don't want to install it, only install requirements with pip install -r requirements.txt and use it as it.
If you want to use your own Google credentials, simply change them in the credentials.conf file with your own settings.
If you want to generate androidID, see https://github.com/nviennot/android-checkin/ or https://github.com/Akdeniz/google-play-crawler, otherwise you could either use the given one (default) or use one of your devices ID.
Currently looking for a solution (googleplaydownloader from Tuxicoman provides a working jar).
If you plan to use it with F-Droid-server, remember that fdroidserver needs Java (more precisely the 'jar' command) to work.
Uninstall
Use pip uninstall gplaycli, and remove conf and cronjob with rm -rf /etc/gplaycli /etc/cron.daily/gplaycli. Should be clean, except python dependencies for gplaycli.
