I've been working on a Switch Library Manager because I wanted something a bit more flexible from what I found . That and I wanted something to try litedb and blazor stuff, so I couldn't think of any better than this.

the main features are:
  • Web based - Can be run on docker
  • Runs on Windows, Linux and Mac.
  • Supports NSP, NSZ, XCI, XCZ files.
  • Read a folder and analyze all the files.
  • Extract metadata from the files, like name, size, titleId, publisher and Icon.
  • Use titledb to aggregate more information.
  • Create a database with all the information, thanks to litedb, you can use the db explorer to manipulate the data even further.
  • Shows a list or grid of all your games.
  • Filter by name, publisher, size, titleId, region, type, etc.
  • Sort by name, publisher, size, titleId, region, type, etc.
  • List missing DLC or updates for your games.
  • Local TitleDb, no need to download it every time.
keys are a requirement, if no keys are present you can still use the titledb browser I think.

dotnet 8 is required to run this

You can get the source or the binaries from github (unable to post links) github/ivaano/NsxLibraryManager/releases

I've been using it since November, but haven't tested extensively so if you find a bug or something weird please open an Issue on github so we can track it.



here are some screenshots.

Super! Thanks for your time taking into creating a current switch library manager. Nice to have a (in my case) PC app that scans for missing updates.

This might be a dumb question: What should the library path in the config file?
Same path as the exe/so file, If you run the app with no config file it will create a default config file you can then go to the web ui and it should redirect you to the settings page where you can set your paths.

Great. It is working. I love your app. Please keep up the great work. Please add a feature so that we can save the filters on the web interface.

Wow! Thank you! This is what I was looking for.

Is it possible to scan subfolders? I have my games organized with each folder and it will not scan unless if I have every file in one folder

Yes, it is working with me with subfolders. I think you need to tick the option 'Recursive' under library path in the settings section.

Yes there is a recursive field on the setting page, or you can set recursive to true in config.json

We have that only in the titledb grid, next release I'll add it to library titles grid

Could you integrate a web server for Tinfoil or similar title installer? And title management (delete/move duplicate files) would be also really useful.
That would be great 😊

@ivaano could you please implement a "add to library" button in full Catalogue tab instead of searching from local folder?
I have in zip files, not worth extracting them.

thanks

thx for the app

great job

some point to consider :

{AppName} seems to be empty for both base and update when renaming
logic would be to be the same for all base update and dlc

and
is it possible for {TitleName} to remove the part {AppName} which is redundant ?
or provide a {ShortTitleName}


with this change you could put this, as default for renaming with the same logic for all

Base
{BasePath}\{AppName}\{AppName} [BASE] {TitleName} [{TitleId}][v{Version}].{Extension}

DLC
{BasePath}\{AppName}\{AppName} [DLC] {TitleName} [{TitleId}][v{Version}].{Extension}

update
{BasePath}\{AppName}\{AppName} [UPD] {TitleName} [{TitleId}][v{Version}].{Extension}

    $60 for a game that's a decade old might be unheard of on PC but actually is not uncommon on consoles

    especially Nintendo because they only ever lower the price of games when they do a greatest hits/platinum hits/players choice re-release
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, and the HD collections released for 7th gen consoles too
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but they don't seem to have done any of those for the switch yet and maybe never will

    I think we all forgot breath of the wild released for the wii u tbh

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, tbh the HD collections are more justified since they include more than just 1 game per copy

    @SylverReZ I read that non-binary people identify as a blend of male and female. The point is i think i'm a blend of those and thus non binary

    @Xdqwerty, Non-binary people are those who don't identify themselves exclusively as male or female.
