udiskie VS lgogdownloader

The most common approach (though a bit different) to get write access for users is probably using udisks[1]/udiskie[2] which use udev and polkit [3]. udiskie even supports luks unlocking [4].

https://github.com/coldfix/udiskie looks close, but does it work without desktop environments? Is there alternatives to udiskie that doesn't require desktop environments and supports unlocking LUKS encrypted volumes?

Based on https://github.com/coldfix/udiskie/blob/master/doc/udiskie.8.txt and https://github.com/coldfix/udiskie/issues/66#issuecomment-289204539, you probably need to create a configuration for the encrypted hard disk in the file ~/.config/udiskie/config.yml. For example, as follows.

For example, I typically ran things like lxpolkit, nm-applet, redshift, udiskie and xfce4-power-manager when I used i3.

By running udiskie in your i3 session, for example.

This. There is also udiskie, a GUI tool with notification icon, support for unlocking encrypted partitions, powering off USB devices, and so on.

I've used udiskie to handle removable drives in i3.

I use https://github.com/Sude-/lgogdownloader it is for Linux however. You can probably run it in WSL though.

If you have access to Linux, there's a community tool called LGOGDownloader that can download your whole library or selected parts of it in one go. It can also list any local files that aren't in your GOG account anymore, e.g. older versions of updated games. I use it regularly to keep my offline library of 600+ games up to date.

My local GOG library is maintained by the third-party LGOGDownloader. I'm using GOG Galaxy only for a handful of Windows games that do require it for multiplayer.

I recently discovered that my GOG downloader (https://github.com/Sude-/lgogdownloader) is currently broken, I've updated to the latest version but it seems GOG changed their API?

No idea if it runs on windows, but for linux there is https://github.com/Sude-/lgogdownloader/ i download all my games with this command:

Nice! How does this compare to lgogdownloader? (https://github.com/Sude-/lgogdownloader)

https://sites.google.com/site/gogdownloader/ I found it in my AUR repository so I expect it to be in the repository of whatever distribution you might choose.

There actually is lgogdownloader, which apparently implements part of the GOG Galaxy API, but it seems to only do listing, downloading, and installing of games, and not whatever else Galaxy does.
