[MIT License](LICENSE)

It is recommended that you back up your ESO live profile before using `eso-banana` in case you want to revert back.

On Windows, press `Windows Key + e` to open a file explorer and enter the following path in the address bar:

```
%HOME%\Documents\Elder Scrolls Online\
```

or on Windows 11

```
Documents\Elder Scrolls Online\
```

Make a copy of the `live` folder and rename it to something meaningful like `old` or `backup`.

# Usage

Follow the installation instructions for your `platform`:

- [Windows](#windows-installation)
- [Linux](#linux-installation)

On first run, the `addons.text` file will be created in your ESO live directory.
It will look similar to the following:

```
https://www.esoui.com/downloads/info7-LibAddonMenu.html
https://www.esoui.com/downloads/info1245-TamrielTradeCentre.html
https://www.esoui.com/downloads/info1146-LibCustomMenu.html
```

Add the ESOUI url for each additional addon you wish to keep updated.
Make sure to include the `www.` indicator that ESOUI requires for some stupid reason.

systemctl list-timers --all
sudo systemctl disable banana.timer
```

# Linux Installation

The following instructions are for any linux system using systemd.

```
[Unit]
Description=Run banana daily and on boot.
Wants=banana.timer

[Service]
Type=oneshot
ExecStart=/home/user_name_here/.local/bin/eso-banana-script
User=deck

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
```

Finally, install `eso-banana` using pip and install the systemd timer and service to run `eso-banana` everyday.

```
cd ./banana/
pip install .
cp banana.timer banana.service /etc/systemd/system/
sudo systemctl enable banana.timer
sudo systemctl enable banana.service
```

# Linux Unschedule

```
systemctl list-timers --all
sudo systemctl disable banana.timer
```
