# LauncherTweaks
Tweaks for the official FFXIV launcher.
## Features
* Allows configuring the launcher URL, enabling you to write custom launcher pages.
## Usage
Build the project with the instructions below. Then, place the `version.dll` next to the launcher.
To configure the launcher URL, place a `launchertweaks.toml` next to the launcher executable:
```toml
# Must be able to serve a index.html or else the launcher 404s:
launcher_url = "https://launcher.mysite.localhost/"
```
### macOS/Linux
Wine will prefer it's own `version.dll` by default, but you can change it the configuration (`winecfg`). Applications like [Bottles](https://usebottles.com/) have dedicated settings for this too.
## Building
We require Nightly to build, but `rust-toolchain.toml` should prefer it by default.
## macOS/Linux
It's possible to build this project outside of Windows. Ensure that you have and build with the correct target (`x86_64-pc-windows-gnu`):
```shell
rustup target add x86_64-pc-windows-gnu
```
If you encounter an error message like:
```shell
error occurred in cc-rs: failed to find tool "x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc": No such file or directory (os error 2)
```
Then you need to install the MinGW toolchain, as one of our dependencies has to compile C code.
## Launcher Functions
Here are some interesting native functions that are callable from JavaScript. To call these, use `window.external.user`.
* `systemConfig`: Opens the system config program.
* `requestExit`: Despite the name, exits the launcher immediately.
* `requestReboot`: Exits the launcher immediately, doesn't seem to come back though?
