### Captchas

Epic Games currently serves captchas and bot detection to its login and checkout pages.

#### Sending you captchas

For whatever reason, if your IP/account loses trust with hCaptcha, this project can notify and have you manually solve a captcha. To use this requires:
### Web server

* Access to one of the [notification methods](https://claabs.github.io/epicgames-freegames-node/classes/AppConfig.html#notifiers) (Discord, Telegram, email, Apprise, Pushover, etc.)
* Configuring the captcha solving page webserver
* Either via local IP or reverse proxy/port forwarding (if you don't know what this means, use the next option)
* Or by using [localtunnel](https://localtunnel.me) to very easily remotely tunnel the webserver
This project can occasionally ask you to login via [device code authentication](https://github.com/MixV2/EpicResearch/blob/master/docs/auth/grant_types/device_code.md). Epic Games's device code session expires after 10 minutes, so this project uses a web server and redirect to prevent from sending you a new link every 10 minutes. There are two options for running the web server:

See below for detailed instructions on each requirement.
#### Web server config

##### Webserver setup
If you're familiar with hosting web servers and/or reverse proxies, follow this:

1. Expose port 3000 in your Docker run config (e.g. `-p 81:3000` maps the host machine's port 81 to the container's port 3000)
1. If you want to access the Captcha solving page from outside your network, setup any port forwarding/reverse proxy/DNS
1. Set the `webPortalConfig.baseUrl` in the config
1. The web portal uses WebSocket to communicate. If you're using a reverse proxy, you may need additional configuration to enable WebSocket. [This guide from Uptime Kuma](https://github.com/louislam/uptime-kuma/wiki/Reverse-Proxy) covers most scenarios.

##### Notification setup
### Notifications

Each notification method has unique setup instructions. Read [its documentation]([notification methods](https://claabs.github.io/epicgames-freegames-node/classes/AppConfig.html#notifiers)) on the config site for exact details and instructions. The [example config](https://claabs.github.io/epicgames-freegames-node/classes/AppConfig.html) may also help as an example.

to the root of your `config.json`. For more details check out the [config docs](https://claabs.github.io/epicgames-freegames-node/classes/AppConfig.html#testNotifiers).

#### Two-factor login

Epic has begun [enforcing two-factor](https://www.epicgames.com/store/en-US/news/two-factor-authentication-required-when-claiming-free-games) when claiming some free games. It rarely may be necessary for some free games when using this tool.

If you have two-factor authentication (2FA) enabled on your account, you need to add your TOTP secret as an environment variable. To get your TOTP secret, you may need to redo your 2FA setup:

1. Go [here](https://www.epicgames.com/account/password) to enable 2FA.
1. Click "enable authenticator app."
1. In the section labeled "manual entry key," copy the key.
1. Use your authenticator app to add scan the QR code.
1. Activate 2FA by completing the form and clicking activate.
1. Once 2FA is enabled, use the key you copied as the value for the TOTP parameter.

If you can't get 2FA working with this tool, try enabling `MAKE PRIMARY` for "Authenticator App" in your Epic account settings.
Note: to optimize for standby memory usage, the web server does not run when the process is not running. The web server will only be available during a scheduled run.

#### Memory Limit

It's recommended to add `-m 2g` as a `docker run` parameter to set a max memory usage of 2GB. The Chromium processes can sometimes run away, and without a limit your system will eventually lock up.

### Docker Run

#### With JSON Config

`$ docker run -d -v /my/host/dir/:/usr/app/config:rw -p 3000:3000 -m 2g charlocharlie/epicgames-freegames:latest`
`$ docker run -d -v /my/host/dir/:/usr/app/config:rw -p 3000:3000 -m 2g ghcr.io/claabs/epicgames-freegames-node:latest`

#### Without JSON Config

Without JSON config, you can only configure one account.

## Miscellaneous

### v3 to v4 Migration
### v4 to v5 Migration

In v4, three config options have been deprecated and moved: `email`, `baseUrl`, and `onlyWeekly`. The deprecated options will be automatically converted to the new options at runtime, but you will need to change your `config.json` for a stable solution.
In v5, several options have been added or removed. The added/removed options should not affect existing v4 configs, but may need to change your `config.json` for a stable solution.

#### `email`
#### Changed

Copy the `email` block into the `notifiers` array and add `"type": "email"` to the email config object.

```jsonc
{
"email": {
"smtpHost": "smtp.gmail.com",
"smtpPort": 587,
"emailSenderAddress": "[email protected]",
"emailSenderName": "Epic Games Captchas",
"emailRecipientAddress": "[email protected]",
"secure": false,
"auth": {
"user": "[email protected]",
"pass": "abc123",
},
},
* `cronSchedule`: The default was changed to every six hours. You should change your cron schedule to run more often than every 8 hours, as the device code auth refresh token expires after 8 hours.

// ⬇ changes to ⬇
#### Removed

"notifiers": [
{
"type": "email", // This indicates the notifier type
"smtpHost": "smtp.gmail.com",
"smtpPort": 587,
"emailSenderAddress": "[email protected]",
"emailSenderName": "Epic Games Captchas",
"emailRecipientAddress": "[email protected]",
"secure": false,
"auth": {
"user": "[email protected]",
"pass": "abc123",
},
},
],
}
```

#### `baseUrl`

Move the `baseUrl` block into the `webPortalConfig` config object.

```jsonc
{
"baseUrl": "https://epic.example.com",

// ⬇ changes to ⬇

"webPortalConfig": {
"baseUrl": "https://epic.example.com",
},
}
```

#### `onlyWeekly`

The `onlyWeekly` boolean has been changed to the `searchStrategy` string.

```jsonc
{
"onlyWeekly": true,

// ⬇ changes to ⬇

"searchStrategy": "weekly"
}
```

```jsonc
{
"onlyWeekly": false,

// ⬇ changes to ⬇

"searchStrategy": "promotion"
}
```
* `account.password`: login credentials are no longer used
* `account.totp`: login credentials are no longer used
* `noHumanErrorHelp`: purchase is no longer automated
* `hcaptchaAccessibilityUrl`: was deprecated in v4
* `email`: was deprecated in v4, use `notifiers` with `"type": "email"`
* `baseUrl`: was deprecated in v4, use `webPortalConfig.baseUrl`
* `onlyWeekly`: was deprecated in v4, use `searchStrategy`
