Development
Requires Node.js.
Generally, you just need these commands:
- Add all recent changes (defaults to last 7 days, but then it remembers when you last ran it):
npm run recent
- Validate the manifest against the schema:
npm run schema
- List some stats about the data set:
npm run stats
- Activate pre-commit hooks (requires Python):
pip install --user pre-commit pre-commit install
There are some lower-level commands for finer control or full imports:
- Add new games to wiki-game-cache.yaml (required in order to add them to the manifest):
npm run cache
- Update the manifest with games from the cache:
- All games in cache:
npm run manifest - Specific games:
npm run manifest -- "Game 1" "Game 2"
- All games in cache:
API etiquette
When running or modifying the importer script, please be mindful not to unnecessarily spam the PCGW or Steam APIs.
The Mediawiki guidelines suggest that:
Making your requests in series rather than in parallel, by waiting for one request to finish before sending a new request, should result in a safe request rate.
I am not sure about guidelines for the Steam API, but the cache file should mean that we only ever need to reach out to Steam once per game.
