# pack deployer
|
|
|
|
- a simple command line utility to automatically archive and move your resourcepacks into a folder.
|
|
|
|
## use cases
|
|
|
|
this may be useful if you regularly create resourcepacks and want to organise your projects in different folders.
|
|
|
|
## platform support
|
|
|
|
- developed on and tested for linux
|
|
- should work on windows and mac as well as it's not using platform specific libraries
|
|
|
|
## how to use
|
|
|
|
- you'll need a projects folder named whatever you want
|
|
- compile the binary in release mode with
|
|
> cargo build --release
|
|
- place the binary in the projects folder
|
|
- any resourcepacks you're working on should be in subdirectories of this folder
|
|
- when the binary is run, any subdirectories containing a pack.mcmeta file will have their contents archived and copied to _resourcepacks in your projects dir
|
|
- any existing zip files will also be copied into _resourcepacks
|
|
- you should make your .minecraft/resourcepacks folder a shortcut/symlink to _resourcepacks in your projects dir
|
|
WARNING: before running, ensure that any packs you want to keep are moved to your projects directory, _resourcepacks will be deleted and replaced each time the binary is run
|
|
- any folder prefixed with an underscore will be ignored
|
|

## features
|
|
- the utility recursively scans directories in the project folder and organises packs into a folder
|
|
|
|
## planned features
|
|
|
|
- reading directory locations to sync packs to from a config file (currently the config part of the code doesn't do anything useful)
|
|
- pack repository support (i'm thinking something along the lines of a basic package manager where you can install from a URL or repository)
|
|
- downloading packs
|
|
- publishing / hosting your own packs with sharable URL's (so like a basic webserver kinda thing)
|
|
- auto setup: when the app runs for the first time it will do the following
|
|
- ask you to input your resourcepacks folder location
|
|
- ask for a projects folder location
|
|
- move all of your resourcepacks to your projects folder
|
|
- create a shortcut in resourcepacks to your _resourcepacks dir in the deployment folder
|
|
- from there the app will uatomatically add new packs to your folder as you download them like a package manager
