📀 Installation

cd custom-presence

• Install the requirements

pip -r requirements.txt

• Run the install script

chmod +x install.sh
sudo ./install.sh

• Files will be copied into /usr/bin, which is probably in your PATH, so you can launch the scripts from the terminal

which cp-cfg
which cp-run

• Then you can delete the directory

cd .. && rm -rf custom-presence

🚀 Usage

First you will need to create an application in the developer portal name it whatever you want, and copy the client ID.

You can upload images in the Rich Presence > Art Assets section

After doing that, edit the presence config with cp-cfg. Make sure you paste the client ID into the Client ID section. You can use the images that you uploaded earlier in the Large Image Name and Small Image Name section, leave them empty if you want no images.

If you are using the buttons, make sure to provide a valid URL that starts with http:// or https://

To start up the presence, run cp-run

🔎 Troubleshooting

If you can't see your presence:

• Make sure that client ID is valid.
• Make sure that cp-run is running
• Make sure that you have Display current activity as status message set to ON in your discord settings. You can find this setting in: User Settings > Activity Privacy > Activity Status
• If you still can't see your presence please create an issue
