streamdeck-rustplus
This is an unofficial Stream Deck plugin for interacting with Smart Switches in the PC game Rust. This plugin mimics some of the functionality of the official Rust companion app directly on the Stream Deck.
Install
Go to the Releases page, download the latest "tech.macil.rustplus.streamDeckPlugin" file, and then open it to load the plugin into Stream Deck.
Configuring
You must have Node.js and Google Chrome installed to continue.
In Stream Deck, scroll down on the right until you see the "Rust+" section with the "Rust Smart Switch" action. Drag that action onto a free spot in Stream Deck. You are able to title it as you want and customize the on/off images.
Next, we need to fill out the Entity Config setting for the button.
In a terminal, run this command which will open a Steam login page:
npx @liamcottle/rustplus.js fcm-register
Log into Steam and the command should complete. You won't have to run this command again.
Now whenever you want to add one or more smart switches, run this command:
npx @liamcottle/rustplus.js fcm-listen
Leave that window open. Now in Rust, use the wire tool while holding the use key on a smart switch to activate the "Pair" menu option, just like you were pairing the smart switch with the Rust+ mobile app. When you do this, a block of text will appear in the terminal, starting with { and ending with }. Copy that text and paste it as the Entity Config on the Stream Deck button.
The Stream Deck button should work now to toggle the Smart Switch!
Developing
If you want to contribute to this project and develop on its code, copy or symlink the "Sources/tech.macil.rustplus.sdPlugin" directory into the Stream Deck Plugins directory. You should also turn on Stream Deck's Javascript debugging functionality. See Create your own plugin for more information on these steps.
