Bulk RetroArch Forwarder Generator

This generates forwarders for ROMs supported by NX RetroArch. Put ROMs in the input folder (create it if it doesn't exist) and clone https://github.com/teknik-app/forwarder-images into the images folder (also create it if it doesn't exist). Run node main.js - the forwarders will be in the output folder and the titledb will be in titledb.json, next to the script.

How to install

install nodejs v18+

inside the directory use npm i

please create the following folders

images, input, output, and titles (see folder structure)

additional steps if errors

use the following commands

npm install js-levenshtein

npm install --save inquirer@^8.0.0

Note

if the proper folders inside input, output, and images are not present main.js and select.js will crash
