@hyrious/rvdata2-textconv

A simple textconv script to print Scripts.rvdata2 (RPG Maker VA) in git diff.

Install

npm i -g @hyrious/rvdata2-textconv

Usage

Print contents of Scripts.rvdata2:

rvdata2-textconv Scripts.rvdata2

Git

Add this to your global .gitconfig or .git/config per repo:

[diff "rvdata2"]
	textconv = rvdata2-textconv

Add this to your .gitattributes per repo (create one if not exist):

*.rvdata2   diff=rvdata2

Todo

Currently I'm not in a hurry to implement features below, if you find this tool helpful and want something new, feel free to raise an issue or make a pull request!

• Add a smarter printer to handle other .rvdata2 files, for example:
  • if the file starts with Scripts, print it in $RGSS_SCRIPTS format
  • if the file contains an array of objects, and the first one is nil, print it in database format (one item per line)
  • otherwise, print it in yaml or json format
• When the "smart" one not work, add flags to manually select one format:
  • e.g. run with --format=db
