Contributing
This section is for mapmakers who contribute to the module.
Since v1.1.0 of the module, the database has moved to levelDB. This means that the JSON files are no longer directly viewable.
To assist with maintaining visibility of changes, an npm
script exists to convert the levelDB database to a JSON file.
- You must have Node.js installed as a prerequisite to the following.
- Run
npm install
to install the required dependencies.
Prior to committing changes to git, you should run the following commands:
npm run build:json
to export the database to JSON files.
- The JSON files will be output to the
packs/_source
directory.
- You can then compare the changes in the JSON files to ensure that the changes are as expected using something like
git diff
.
Building the database from JSON files is also possible (for example: you accidentally broke something locally, or wanted to make a change to the raw JSON) using the following command:
npm run build:db
to import the JSON files back into the database.
