# steamguard-cli
A linux utility for setting up and using Steam Mobile Authenticator (AKA Steam 2FA) on the command line.
**This utility is in beta.**

**We are in the process of rewriting steamguard-cli from scratch in Rust.** Any help would be greatly appreciated! See #55 for discussion. The instructions in this document refer to the C# version.

# Disclaimer
**Use this software at your own risk.**

# Prerequisites
These packages are required to build and run steamguard-cli.
* mono-complete
* nuget
* make

# Building
Downloading as .zip will not work because submodules are used. You must clone the repository.

## Linux
Building on Linux is very simple. Make sure you have all the prerequisites listed above.

    git clone --recursive https://github.com/dyc3/steamguard-cli.git
    cd steamguard-cli
    make

To run the current build:

    build/steamguard

To run the current build quickly:

    make run

## macOS

Building on macOS is pretty simple. Make sure you have all the prerequisites listed above.

* For the prerequisites the easiest way to install them is to use [homebrew](https://brew.sh/):

    brew update
    brew install mono
    brew install nuget

* For the application source code:

    git clone --recursive https://github.com/dyc3/steamguard-cli.git
    cd steamguard-cli
    make -f makefile.macos

To run the current build:

    mono build/steamguard

To run the current build quickly:

    make -f makefile.macos run

To install run:

    make -f makefile.macos install

## Windows
Coming soon...

# Installation
To install the latest version on Debian-based systems, download the package from the releases section and type

    sudo dpkg --install steamguard-cli_x.x.x.x-x.deb

For Archlinux, install [steamguard-cli-git](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/steamguard-cli-git/) from the AUR.

To install after building from source, run:

    sudo make install

# Usage
`steamguard-cli` looks for your `maFiles` folder in the current user's home directory (eg. `~/maFiles/`).
Your `maFiles` can be created with [Steam Desktop Authenticator][SDA]. You can create `maFiles` with
steamguard-cli using the `setup` action (`steamguard setup`).

**REMEMBER TO MAKE BACKUPS OF YOUR `maFiles`, AND TO WRITE DOWN YOUR RECOVERY CODE!**
