This downloads Chromium (343 MB) to a cache in home ([doc](https://playwright.dev/docs/browsers#managing-browser-binaries)).
## Usage
Both scripts start an automated Chromium instance, either with the browser GUI shown or hidden (*headless mode*).
Login has to be done in the browser. It's hard to automate since you usually need to enter some OTP (but you can select 'remember this device').

### Epic Games Store
Run `node epic-games`
Does not run headless, but can be run quasi-headless inside a Docker container (see below).
They detect headless mode (despite stealth plugin) and it gets stuck with a captcha challenge ([issue](https://github.com/vogler/free-games-claimer/issues/2)).
Options:
- Run `node epic-games` (not headless, i.e. browser is visible, [headless leads to captcha](https://github.com/vogler/free-games-claimer/issues/2))
- Run headless inside Docker:
- [Install Docker](https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/)
- `npm run docker:build`
- `npm run docker:epic-games`
### Amazon Prime Gaming
Run `node prime-gaming`

Runs headless. Run `node prime-gaming show` to show the GUI (to login).

Keys for Origin (and GOG?) should be printed to the console and need to be redeemed manually at the moment ([issue](https://github.com/vogler/free-games-claimer/issues/5)).
Other stores not tested.
### Docker
See https://github.com/vogler/free-games-claimer/pull/11 (TODO).
Keys for {Origin, GOG.com, Legacy Games} should be printed to the console and need to be redeemed manually at the URL printed to the terminal ([issue](https://github.com/vogler/free-games-claimer/issues/5)).
A screenshot of the page with the code is saved to `screenshots` as well.
### Run periodically
Epic Games releases one (sometimes more) free game *every week*, but around christmas every day.
