Retroarch Web Player for YunoHost

Lire ce readme en français.

This package allows you to install Retroarch Web Player quickly and simply on a YunoHost server. If you don't have YunoHost, please consult the guide to learn how to install it.

Overview

RetroArch is a frontend for emulators, game engines and media players. It enables you to run classic games on a wide range of computers and consoles through its slick graphical interface. Settings are also unified so configuration is done once and for all. In addition to this, you are able to run original game discs (CDs) from RetroArch. RetroArch has advanced features like shaders, netplay, rewinding, next-frame response times, runahead, machine translation, blind accessibility features, and more!

Shipped version: 1.10.1

Demo: https://web.libretro.com/

Disclaimers / important information

Use Shared ROMs library

Although you can upload a ROM at runtime, retroarch may have access to the ROMs you already have on your server:

Games are located in /opt/yunohost/retroarch/assets/cores. A symbolic link is created to this folder in /home/yunohost.multimedia/share/Games, so that you can place your games from here
cores have to be indexed to work : script /opt/yunohost/retroarch/indexer.sh run every 5 minutes to index all games in opt/yunohost/retroarch/assets/cores

Limitations

Cannot save game, in fact, cannot write at all... so configuration is lost each time you start again
No user management
Some core are listed but not implemented : they do not work, the issue is from the upstream app.
