ManifestDownloaders is a tool that allows easily downloading VALORANT paks using either ManifestDownloader or rman
pip install git+https://github.com/NotToDisturb/ManifestDownloaders.git#egg=ManifestDownloaders
The following tools are also required:
ManifestDownloaders<ManifestDownloaders instance>.md_download<ManifestDownloaders instance>.rman_download
Creates an instace of ManifestDownloaders, loading the config. Check the Config file section and the ConfigLoader repo to learn more about how the config file works.
manifest: str, filter_paks: str,
output_path: str = None, archive: bool = False
)Downloads the files matching
filter_paksfrommanifest, which can be a URL, a path or a manifest id, using ManifestDownloader.

filter_paksfrommanifest, which can be a URL, a path or a manifest id, using rman.dl. This downloader is usually faster.

ManifestDownloaders uses a configuration file to know where the needed tools and other paths are:
| Path | Validation type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| md_path | File | Path to the ManifestDownloader executable. |
| rman_path | File | Path to the rman-dl executable. |
| manifest_path: | Not empty path | Path where the manifest file will be downloaded. Check out the available manifest path keywords. |
| output_path | Folder | Path the paks will be downloaded to. |
| Keyword | Description |
|---|---|
{manifest} |
Replaced by the id of the manifest or name of the manifest file |
Here is an example of how to use ManifestDownloaders:
from manifestdownloaders import ManifestDownloaders
downloader = ManifestDownloader()
downloader.rman_download("853077BEBD9F7A51", "en_US_Text")
The first time this script is run, it will exit after generating manifests_config.json.
Subsequent runs will continue exiting until the configuration file is filled out correctly.
Once it is, the script will execute properly and the downloaded paks will be in the output path (output_path in the config).
ManifestDownloaders features an archival feature that allows the user to automatically archive
every manifest file downloaded. The first time a script that uses ManifestsDownloader
is run with archive=True, a new config file will be generated within the installation path
of ManifestDownloaders (shown by the script upon generation).
That configuration can be identical to the one in your project folder, but in order to not overwrite manifests,
it is recommended that the filename of the path in manifest_path be {manifest}.manifest
It is also possible to use ManifestDownloaders as a standalone script:
- Download the latest release
- Extract the zip file
- Open a console inside the extracted folder
- Install the required packages using
pip install -r requirements.txt - Run the script using
python manifestdownloaders.py
In the first execution, the config file is created and needs to be filled out.
Check out Installation for the tools required and
Config file for more details on how to fill out the config.
Running the script after filling out the config will prompt you for the type of downloader to use,
manifest to use and pak filter to apply.
