Actually you don't even need to write your own scripts. There is an official steamlink package available for Raspbian. I just set up a Pi3 to run as a dedicated steamlink the other day, and it works fairly well.

Just run:

  apt install steamlink

  steamlink

Edit: And if you want it to run the steamlink interface on bootup, you can stick this in your crontab:

  @reboot steamlink

Nice, I was curious what repo it was in since it doesn't seem to be in Debian Unstable anymore.

Anyone interested can get the Debian package here:

Thanks for the info. I wasn't surprised in the least that there was something out there. I am a nomadic dev at the moment so most of my kit is locked in a warehouse and I am stuck using MacBook pro.
