How to use -filelist

[Surxe]

Hi! I got DepotDownloader working with
./DepotDownloader -app 1422450 -depot 1422456 -manifest 7423908266886961121 -username <myuser> -password <mypass> -remember-password

but I am having some trouble using the -filelist parameter. I specifically want to download the <steam_path>steamapps\common\Deadlock\game\citadel\steam.inf.

I verified the steam.inf files exists in this manifest first by downloading the whole manifest with the first command. I tried -filelist game/citadel/steam.inf and -filelist game\citadel\steam.inf to no luck. The former displays this error

I installed the windows x64 package from the releases area.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

filelist points to a file which contains the list of items to download. it is not itself the list of files to download.

Hi, could you elaborate? I'm still a bit confused, I don't understand the difference here. Thanks!

Is it like, I create a file list.txt, and inside the file I put "game/citadel/steam.inf"? Whats the syntax for adding multiple files into list.txt?

Yes.

One file pattern per line

Perfect thank you! Also, is there a doc you can refer me to for downloading all manifests from a depo? If I omit the manifest, it seems to be using the latest manifest. Thank you!

There is no built-in way for downloading all manifests for a depot. Steam doesn't expose that information. It only gives the current, latest manifest id for a given branch.

Noted. What do you recommend for querying all manifest id's for a depot so I can write some quick python to do it? Thank you in advance!

I don't know of any source that's available to query for that. Steam does not provide that information. If you have your own service, you could track, store, and serve it over time.
