@meleu said in Recalbox Manager port:
I didn't even test the RetroPie-Manager. I tried to install it on my x86 RetroPie (my ubuntu laptop), and failed. The problem is the absence of that virtualenv package on ubuntu repositories.
Since RetroPie is instalable on other platforms, I think you should warn the users that the RetroPie-Manager is for Raspberry Pi (at least, for now).
I'll try to test it on my raspi when possible.
(...) let me know if you'd like access on github
Yes. I'm not promising an active development, but I think I can, at least, improve/simplify the instructions at README.
Did you see I made a Pull Request correcting the installation instruction? There is an unecessary
dev
string on thegit clone
command.I'm not home, but I'll check it out as soon as possibile. Thanks

Pull request merged.
I tried to as you suggested.
I have a directory .\mamelibretro and I created a simlynk .\mame-libretrodrwxr-xr-x 3 pi pi 4096 Jun 21 21:35 mamelibretro lrwxrwxrwx 1 pi pi 13 Jul 2 13:42 mame-libretro -> mamelibretro/
The django systems view is now giving the same error it does when you keep the folder names with the dash char

I have to find out why and if it's possible to fix the error

Clearly it's not a problem python has listing the directories.
I did some tests and the test-dir is listed in the array.print(existing_sys)
[('psx', 'psx'), ('fds', 'fds'), ('atarilynx', 'atarilynx'), ('test-dir', 'test-dir'), ('fba', 'fba'), ('zxspectrum', 'zxspectrum'), ('segacd', 'segacd'), ('genesis', 'genesis'), ('gba', 'gba'), ('n64', 'n64'), ('sega32x', 'sega32x'), ('arcade', 'arcade'), ('ngp', 'ngp'), ('sg1000', 'sg1000'), ('megadrive', 'megadrive'), ('mamelibre tro', 'mamelibretro'), ('psp', 'psp'), ('snes', 'snes'), ('mame4all', 'mame4all'), ('atari7800', 'atari7800'), ('gbc', 'gbc'), ('nes', 'nes'), ('gamegear', 'gamegear') , ('pcengine', 'pcengine'), ('gb', 'gb'), ('neogeo', 'neogeo'), ('ngpc', 'ngpc'), ('mastersystem', 'mastersystem'), ('amstradcpc', 'amstradcpc'), ('atari2600', 'atari2 600'), ('msx', 'msx'), ('vectrex', 'vectrex')]I have to understand better that reverse match section

@Botolo genesis is a symlink and is present too. The problem is neither the dash nor the symlink.

It was indeed the dash.
The problem was in the urls.py regex that didn't match the name with "-".Now I think it's working. Can you try it?

Do you mean no need for those annoying renaming process?! Great!!! :D

I'm away from my rasp, but I'll try it this evening. :-)

And of course another issue come up :D
With the new regex the form seems unable to delete the files.It's a never ending job :/

Bug fixed. I hope

@Botolo another Pull Request on README. Check it out. :-)
-
@Botolo just out of curiosity how much overhead does this tool have?

I'd say almost nothing

@Botolo yeah I just tested it and it's very lightweight. Once we sort out the repository stuff we can add some things like the runcommand log. A few icon changes, maybe the colours too. I can get a working module that will automate the install somewhat and we can throw it on zerojays retropie-extra extra repository

Sounds good.
I'd like to add a syntax JS to the editor too.Do you think we should get rid of the original recalbox variables?

I think yes. I'll try to do it tonight.

I found a problem. The RetroPie-Manager isn't able to show subdirs in ROMs directories.
For example, my/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/nes
has the following subdirs:
0-9/
a/
b/
c/
d/
etcetera...When I open the NES' ROMs dir in RetroPie-Manager, it's empty.

I know, but this could be tricky to solve since that module has been designed for a single level folder structure.

@Botolo dude, you and you're friends are amazing!
