EasyRP (Custom Discord Rich Presence)

EasyRP is a small program to use the discord-rpc, to make a custom rich presence/game on discord.
using just an easy config file.

Usage

First you need to register a Rich Presence application with discord
- Go here https://discordapp.com/developers/applications/me
- Make a new application The name of the app will be the main name for the rich presence
- Enable rich presence for your app and add some assets
Download the latest release of EasyRP from here https://github.com/Pizzabelly/EasyRP/releases
- if you are on Windows you also need Visual C++ Redistributable
Edit the config file with the information from your newly registered app
Run the EasyRP executable (it should open a cmd window)
- It should report errors from your config file (if there are any)
Discord should show the game on your profile
- if not, add the exe as a game on discord and the file path should change to your presence
You can edit the config any time while the program is running to change the presence (make sure to save the file)

Timestamps
The Start and End timestamps are in epoch/unix time. Your desired values can be found here. For elapsed time set only the StartTimestamp. For remaining time set both. Though discord seems to only care about hours/minutes/seconds. As it doesnt go above 24hrs either way ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Building
To build EasyRP from source you need the following

any c++ compiler (cl, g++, clang++, etc)
Meson
Ninja
CMake (for discord-rpc library)

Build discord-rpc

git clone https://github.com/Pizzabelly/EasyRP --recurse-submodules
cd EasyRP/discord-rpc
mkdir build && cd build
cmake .. -DENABLE_IO_THREAD=OFF -DENABLE_IO_THREAD option will prevent a link error (see #49)

Now depending on your platform building the discord-rpc library will be different

Unix: make
Windows (visual studio): msbuild /p:Configuration=Release
Windows (mingw): mingw32-make.exe
Now the library should be under src/[lib]discord-rpc.[lib|a], move that to the root of the EasyRP repo

To build EasyRP (in the root of the repo)

meson --buildtype=release build
ninja -C build

Now the EasyRP executable will be under the build directory!
