FORKED : BL3 Auto SHiFT

Cross platform Go app for automatically redeeming SHiFT codes for all Borderlands and Wonderlands games.

This was forked from matt1484's repo as it appears to be no longer maintained. Since VIP is discontinued, all VIP code has been removed. This will only redeem SHiFT codes going forward.

Getting Started

1. Make a SHiFT account at Borderlands
2. Download program from above link
3. Unzip the folder
4. Run it, you will be prompted for username and password
5. Enter username and password (we only use this info to sign into borderlands)
6. Watch it do its magic
7. Repeat when more codes come out (or set up a cron job)

Run it with --help to view command line args that are supported.

Installing

Docker

Source: https://hub.docker.com/r/jauderho/bl3auto/

1. Install Docker
2. Run docker pull jauderho/bl3auto:latest
3. Optional: Create codes subdirectory to store output from previous runs with mkdir codes
4. Run docker run -it -v codes:/root/.config/bl3auto/bl3auto jauderho/bl3auto:latest
   • The mounted volume will keep track of existing codes that have been used already

Docker Compose (preferred)

1. Install Docker and docker-compose
2. Create .env and put the following in the file
   • Add BL3_EMAIL="me@myemail.com" and BL3_PASSWORD="mypassword"
   • Replace "me@myemail.com" with your login email address
   • Replace "mypassword" with your login password
3. Use the compose.yml file below (Updated as of 10/16/2021)

services:
  bl3auto:
    container_name: bl3auto
    image: jauderho/bl3auto:latest
    command: ["-e", "${BL3_EMAIL}", "-p", "${BL3_PASSWORD}"]
    volumes:
      - './codes:/root/.config/bl3auto/bl3auto'

volumes:
  codes:

1. Optional: Create codes subdirectory to store output from previous runs with mkdir codes
   • Doing so will allow bl3auto to compare and avoid trying to redeem a previously used code
2. Run docker-compose up

FAQs

Why does my operating system say it's an unrecognized/untrusted app?

Telling the operating system that we're a trusted source is expensive. This is a small open source project and we don't have the funds to correctly sign the app.

Running the app on macOS

macOS may refuse to run the app because it is "from an unidentified developer". To get around this, right click on the app in Finder, and while holding the ⌥ Option key, click Open in the menu. You will be prompted with a message similar to this:

macOS cannot verify the developer of "bl3auto". Are you sure you want to open it?

Click the Open button and the app will run in your terminal. From that point forward you will be able to run the app directly or from your terminal without any issues.

Why does my antivirus flag this program?

It's a false positive. If you don't trust us, you can look at the code and compile it yourself. That's one of the beauties of an open source project!

It's not working. What should I do?

File an issue here with as much detail as you can provide. We're working on adding additional logging and a bug template to better assist with any issues.
