Flashpoint Playlist Sorter

A simple tool to sort Flashpoint playlists by the field of your choice.

Setting up

Make sure you have Python 3 installed on your machine.

• Download the flashpoint.py file from this repository and place it in any folder.
• Inside that same folder, you will need to copy two files:
  • The playlist you want to sort, in JSON format (which is the default export format from the Flashpoint launcher);
  • The flashpoint.sqlite file, which you can find in your local Flashpoint copy, inside the Data folder.

Usage

python flashpoint.py [OPTIONS]...

By default, the program will assume that the playlist to sort is inside a file called playlist.json, will sort it by title in ascending order and will output the sorted playlist in a file called sorted_playlist.json.

You can modify this behaviour by passing the following arguments:

-h, --help                         show this help message and exit
-i [INPUT], --input [INPUT]        the input file which contains the playlist you want to sort in JSON format; default is playlist.json                                 
-o [OUTPUT], --output [OUTPUT]     the output file which is where the sorted playlist will be saved to; default is sorted_playlist.json 
-da, --date-added                  sort by date added
-dev, --developer                  sort by developer
-dm, --date-modified               sort by date modified
-lp, --last-played                 sort by last played
-pl, --platform                    sort by platform
-pt, --playtime                    sort by playtime
-pu, --publisher                   sort by publisher
-rd, --release-date                sort by release date
-s, --series                       sort by series
-t, --title                        sort by title
-desc, --descending                sort in descending order
-r, --random                       random sort
