A small tool written in JS and PHP for manage a JSON file fully compatible with Tinfoil.

It allows you to install NSPs directly on Switch without using cables. At the moment Tinson works only for Google Drive's links.

Note: Deprecated in favor of the new version on Tinson.

Installation

Tinson is based on PHP and JS. So for working you must have a web server which can process PHP.

Prerequisites

  • A web server compatible with PHP.
  • FTP or SSH.

Installing

  • Clone the repository on your PC (or directly on your webserver if you have SSH access).
  • Upload this cloned folder on your website through FTP (you can use filezilla or anything you want).
  • Optional change the folder name for something you like.
  • You're ready to create and manage your NSP list.

If your website is: example.com open Tinson looking for example.com/tinson-master. If you have changed the folder name change the path based on new folder name.

User guide

Website step

What you need for uploading correctly a link is:

  • Google Drive download ID.
  • Target NSP name.

Switch step

  • Add to locations.conf or to file browser on Tinfoil the url to your nearly created json.
  • The path is http://example.com/folder-name/switch.json
  • This step is required only first time, after this Tinfoil will load the locations.conf refreshing all the contents on them.
