nwwatch – Monitor the New World queue and notify when it is about to finish

Getting Started

install python 3.7+
navigate to the directory where you unzipped / cloned this script to
open a command prompt in that directory, install requirements using pip3 install -r requirements.txt (if this doesn’t work, try python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt)
edit config.py to enable/disable the notification plugins you want (see PLUGIN SETTINGS and PLUGIN SPECIFIC VARIABLES sections)
start New World
run the script using python .\nwwatch.py (on some systems you may need to use python3). Events enabled within config.py will automatically trigger when the queue threshold (defined in config.py) is met

Once you’ve done initial setup, you can jump straight to Step 5 going forward.

Want to test your notifications? Set “TEST_MODE” to True in the config.py file. A notification will be triggered as soon as the script starts

How

New World creates a Game.log each time you start the game. Queue progress is logged to this file. nwwatch monitors the status of the queue, as recorded in the logfile, and triggers notification events as a result.

FAQ

What notification types are supported

Out of the box nwwatch supports the following notification types:
- Pushover push notifications (e.g. iOS/Android),
- Discord Webhooks
- SMS notifications (via sinch.com)
Additional notification types can be implemented by adding extra python code to notifier.py. Nwwatch will automatically instantiate and call the notify() method on all subclasses of the Notifier class defined within this file.

class NotifyByMyDesiredMethod(Notifier):
     def notify(self):

What languages are supported

English only at the moment. It should be reasonably easy to adapt for other languages by updating the NW_SEARCH_REGEX parameter in config.py.

Is use of this script allowed by Amazon Games?

The script does not make any modifications to New World files (it simply reads the game logfile) so you should be fine. However you run this at your own risk.
