moduleinstaller

Module installer tool

If your module is versioned using Git, this tool can help you:

• Update your git repository
• Copy/remove changed files to the installed module copy (faster that copying everything)
• Get faster loading times by using the override folder when possible (files inside module folder get duplicated during module load)
• Cons: you will need to commit compiled scripts inside the repository

The tool will install these files depending on their extension:

• .are .git .trx .ult .upe .utc .utd .ute .uti .utm .utp .utr .utt .utw .ncs .dlg .fac .jrl .xml .2da
  • into: $nwn2home/Override/ModuleName
• .ifo .gff
  • into: $nwn2home/Modules/ModuleName
• .trn .gic .pfb .dat .nss .ndb
  • are stripped / ignored
• Other files are put into $nwn2home/Override/ModuleName-unknown for the sake of safety

This tool is only suited for server setup, as it will populate the override folder with module files that will interfere with other modules / campaigns.
