First release! 🎉

See the Readme for installation instructions.

This will scaffold an entire Azure infrastructure for holding your ROM's, their metadata, and a VM with a scraper. It then mounts that VM on your Raspberry Pi so RetroPie can access the ROM's and their metadata. The VM is a cheap Standard_B2s but you can up or downscale like any other Azure VM.

Connect to the VM with ssh-vm.sh to change any scraper configuration. Then run the scraper either from the RPi with run-scraper.sh or from within the VM while connected to it. You can run the process in the background as the VM will offload the RPi, but EmulationStation is not meant to be running while the gamelist.xml files are being written to.

Note: It uses your Azure subscription so be ready to authenticate on a computer when prompted. (Sorry, I can't afford nor take responsibility for what everyone is doing with storage 😎)

This release and the at-home release party were sponsored by COVID-19.
