IGDB#

The igdb plugin adds metadata search results during import. It uses the IGDB API (via Twitch credentials) to supply release dates, genres, developers, publishers, platforms, and ratings.

Enable it in your config:

plugins:
  - igdb
igdb:
  client_id: "YOUR_TWITCH_CLIENT_ID"
  client_secret: "YOUR_TWITCH_CLIENT_SECRET"
  search_limit: 5

Importing#

When igdb is enabled, yamu import will show IGDB candidates under each game during the interactive prompt. You can choose an IGDB candidate, then apply or edit the resulting metadata before importing.
