SHiFT-up

Redeeming SHiFT codes in-game is annoying, especially on consoles where you have to use the on-screen keyboard instead of a physical keyboard.

This command-line tool lets you redeem codes from the convenience of your computer, without having to launch a game.

Prerequisites

Node 10+
NPM or Yarn
A Gearbox SHiFT account (https://shift.gearboxsoftware.com/)

Instructions

install SHiFT-up
- npm install
- npm run build
- npm link
(first time only) enter your Gearbox SHiFT e-mail and password
- shiftup login <email> <password>
- your credentials are transmitted over a secure connection to Gearbox only
- an authentication cookie will be stored inside secrets/<email>.json
  - this file contains your login session, do not share this file with anybody!
- I will NEVER try to steal your credentials
Enter the code that you would like to redeem
- shiftup redeem <email> <code>

If all went well, you should see the words "Your code was successfully redeemed".

Check the website to confirm that it worked.

Known issues

Message:

To continue to redeem SHiFT codes, please launch a SHiFT-enabled title first!

My best guess is that you reached some kind of hourly (daily?) limit. Come back later.

Message:

500 - ""

or

StatusCodeError: 412 - "{}"

You probably entered a bad code.

Planned features

interactive mode: prompt for credentials and codes
silent mode: don't log anything to stdout
error handling (failed logins)
