pkgj Integration

pkgj is a homebrew application for the PS Vita, primarily used for installing PS Vita and PSP Games. While its default configuration talks to a set of pre-defined URLs, you can configure it to talk to custom feeds.

This will help you install PSP or PS Vita games from your RomM library over Wi-Fi

Setup

Prepare

Please note down the following in order to make this as smooth as possible, as well as some pre-reqs:

  • Your PS Vita should already have the following installed:
    • pkgj
    • A method to access files to edit on your Vita, such as VitaShell
  • The URL you use to access RomM
    • This can either be http or https
  • Feed URLs:
    • /api/feeds/pkgi/psp/game
    • /api/feeds/pkgi/psp/dlc
    • /api/feeds/pkgi/psvita/game
    • /api/feeds/pkgi/psvita/dlc

Configure

  1. Connect your PS Vita to your PC over USB using VitaShell
  2. Open /pkgj/config.txt in a text editor to add the feed URLs
  3. If you have PS Vita games in .pkg format, add a url_games {romm_url}/api/feeds/pkgi/psvita/game to the end of the file
  4. If you have PS Vita DLCs in .pkg format, add a url_dlcs {romm_url}/api/feeds/pkgi/psvita/dlc to the end of the file
  5. If you have PSP games in .pkg format, add a url_psp_games {romm_url}/api/feeds/pkgi/psp/game to the end of the file
  6. If you have PSP DLCs in .pkg format, add a url_psp_dlcs {romm_url}/api/feeds/pkgi/psp/dlc to the end of the file
  7. Save the file and disconnect from VitaShell
  8. Open pkgj, Press △ to open the menu and select "Refresh"

Additional

If, during a Refresh, pkgj presents an error saying "can't get list: list is empty...", check whether you have any Games/DLCs for the feeds you've added in .pkg format. RomM won't list any Games in other formats such as .iso.
