Quiver Player Accounts

Quiver Player Accounts allows you to easily player accounts for games using the Godot engine. Currently this service only supports creating guest accounts, but in the future it will allow creating a whole host of accounts, supporting a variety of platforms.

Features

• Currently just guest accounts, but a lot more in the future!

Prerequisites

This plugin requires Godot 4.0 or later. It's been designed to work with GDScript. We'll add support for other languages in the future.

Installation

Install the plugin

• Grab the Player Accounts plugin from the Godot Asset Library (use the AssetLib view in the Godot editor) or copy the quiver_player_accounts directory in the Github repo to the /addons/ directory in your project root.
• Go to your Project Settings -> Plugins and make sure the Quiver Player Accounts plugin is enabled.
• Close Project Settings and reopen it again. Go to the General tab and you should see a new "Quiver" section at the bottom of the left window.

Configure the plugin

• Create an account on quiver.dev, if you haven't already.
• Create a project on Quiver associated with your game, if you haven't already.
• Right now, we don't have a separate dashboard for player accounts. So to get your auth key, go to your project's leaderboards dashboard on the Quiver Leaderboards page, go to the Settings tab, and copy the authentication token and then go to your Godot editor -> Project Settings -> Quiver -> General and paste your auth token.

Test it!

• Somewhere in your game's code, add the following code:

  var success: bool = await PlayerAccounts.register_guest()
  

If success is true, the call succeeded.

Usage

The PlayerAccounts autoload is added to your project automatically when you enable the plugin.

Registering a guest user

To post a score for a guest player account, call:

await PlayerAccounts.register_guest()

The function returns a boolean indicating whether this operation succeeded. Note that this a coroutine, so must be called with the await keyword to get the result. When the player has logged in, the logged_in signal will be emitted.

Logging out

To log a player out, call:

PlayerAccounts.logout()

When the player has logged out, the logged_out signal will be emitted.

Check login status

To see if the current user is logged into a player account:

PlayerAccounts.is_logged_in()

This returns a boolean indicating whether the player is logged in.

Notes and Limitations

• Quiver Player Accounts only supports guest accounts, i.e. accounts with no login credentials. We'll support more types of accounts in the future.
