Steam Game Picker

Steam Game Picker is a web application that helps you pick a game to play from your Steam library. It uses the Steam Web API to fetch your library and pick a random game for you to play.

Try it yourself: steam.voidlesity.dev

Getting Started

Prerequisites

node v20 npm v10 docker

Getting your Steam API Key

  1. Go to the Steam API Key page
  2. Register for a Steam API Key (you can enter any Domain Name)
  3. Copy the API Key and paste it into the .env file in Step 3 of the Installation section

Installation

  1. Clone the repo
git clone https://github.com/voidlesity/steam-game-picker.git
  1. Install NPM packages
npm install
  1. Create a .env file in the root directory and add the following environment variables
STEAM_API_KEY

Docker

  1. Build the Docker image
docker build -t steam-game-picker .
  1. Run the Docker container
docker run -d -p 3000:3000 steam-game-picker

Local

  1. Build the server
npm run build
  1. Start the server
node .output/server/index.mjs
  1. Open your browser and navigate to http://localhost:3000

Usage

  1. Enter your Steam profile URL/Custom URL/SteamID in the input field
  2. Click the Go! button
  3. Now if your Profile is public, you will see a random game of your library
  4. You can now either click the Play button to launch the game or click the re-roll button again to pick another game

You can also click on the Game itself to view more details about the game

Questions and Answers

Where can I access the application?

Why is there no docker image available on Docker Hub?

  • Right now when building the image it includes the Steam API Key in the image. I'm not quite sure how to parse an env variable at runtime. Once I figure that out I will push the image to Docker Hub.
