modinfo.lua Online Generator

[Friendly Grass]

I've made an online modinfo.lua generator. It dynamically generates code for your modinfo.lua, supports importing code, and configuration options.

There are still a few things I want to add but I think it's ready to share.

https://grassdne.github.io/DST-modinfo.lua-Generator/

You can submit an issue on it's Github.

Feature suggestions are welcome.

Looks pretty good.

I would suggest adding support for mod dependencies too:

mod_dependencies = {
  {
    workshop = "workshop-XXXXXXXXX"
  },
  {
    ["local-mod"] = false,
  }
}

Fixed misleading code.

Woops forgot to reply. I do now support these. You can paste in steam workshop links, ids, or the actual "workshop-###" things.

I also just ported the web app to typescript which was the most painful thing I've ever done! But I guess it might help with things down the road.

Sorry, I got that wrong for workshop dependencies. 

The following is for local dependencies only:

{ ["mod-simple-name"] = false }

.For workshop dependencies it's like this:

{ workshop = "workshop-XXXXXXXXX" }

For reference:

Ah I was looking at it in the code and was really confused that they were both checking for dependency.workshop and then preceding to loop through it with ipairs.

But why?

Have you looked at configuration option generation? This app can do some pretty great stuff really fast and easily.

It would be cool if you could also type in emoticons too!

They're unicode characters, but this is the ASCII-safe representation of it in UTF8 encoding.

I added support for emoticons. You can put them in in the input as you would in in-game chat with surrounding colons as a delimiter, although no autocomplete features *yet.*

Spoiler

If you want the literal text :red skull: for some reason, you can put it in double colons ::red skull::

In game result:
