A simple mod manager written in Bash for Linux users.

r2mod is available in the Arch AUR as r2mod_cli
yay -S r2mod_cli
r2mod is available from flathub as io.github.Foldex.r2mod
flatpak install flathub io.github.Foldex.r2mod
Flatpak bin exports should allow you to run r2mod using io.github.Foldex.r2mod.
But you may wish to set up an alias for easier use.
alias r2mod="io.github.Foldex.r2mod"
Flatpak does not allow shell completions to be installed in the usual root owned locations.
The flatpak will install them under user owned directories at runtime instead.
For ZSH, you may need to add $HOME/.local/share/zsh/site-functions to your $fpath
The prior methods are preferred, but if you wish to manually install:
Extract the zip and run sudo make install inside its directory.
sudo pacman -S curl findutils gawk jq p7zip sed
sudo dnf install curl findutils gawk jq p7zip sed
sudo apt-get install curl findutils gawk jq p7zip-full sed
Make sure you have run Risk of Rain 2 beforehand to create the needed directories.
It is heavily recommended to run r2mod setup to create a new install.
Some empty folders will be placed in the BepInEx/plugins dir, do not remove them.
They are used to track updates for certain mods.
The default install directories for Steam/Flatpak should automatically be handled.
If you've installed Risk of Rain 2 to a different location, please export the environment variable
$R2MOD_INSTALL_DIR in your bash profile and point it to your install directory:
export R2MOD_INSTALL_DIR="$HOME/custom/dir/Risk of Rain 2"
$R2MOD_COMPAT_DIR also exists for custom locations of Steam's compatdata directory.
export R2MOD_COMPAT_DIR="$HOME/custom/dir/steamapps/compatdata/632360"
If you wish to use a custom install location with the flatpak, you may use overrides or Flatseal to edit the permissions and environment variables.
The env vars must be an absolute path, they are literal strings and do not have ~ expansion.
Do NOT include Risk of Rain 2 in the R2MOD_INSTALL_DIR env path, an issue with flatpak does not allow for spaces in environment variables. Just point up to steamapps/common.
Use flatpak override --user if it is a user installed flatpak
flatpak override \
--env='R2MOD_INSTALL_DIR=/home/foldex/Games/Steam/SteamLibrary/steamapps/common' \
--env='R2MOD_COMPAT_DIR=/home/foldex/Games/Steam/SteamLibrary/steamapps/compatdata/632360' \
--filesystem='~/Games/Steam/SteamLibrary/steamapps/common/Risk of Rain 2' \
--filesystem='~/Games/Steam/SteamLibrary/steamapps/compatdata/632360' \
