## World Data Manager library for Minetest
|
|
|
|
### Description:
|
|
|
|
A [Minetest][] library for managing data files in the world directory.
|
|
|
|
It takes a little work to read from & write to data in the world directory. `wdata` aims to make that easier by utilizing just two simple methods.
|
|
|
|
This mod is essentially an alternative to Minetest's built-in [StorageRef][] & was created before I realized the implementation existed. Some may still find wdata useful as it does allow for customizing sub-directories & filenames.

### Usage:
|
|
|
|
There are two methods:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
- wdata.read(fname)
|
|
- reads json data from file in world directory & converts to a table.
|
|
- fname: File basename without suffix (e.g. "my_config" or "my_mod/my_config").
|
|
- wdata.write(fname, data[, styled])
|
|
- converts table to json data & writes to file in world directory.
|
|
- fname: File basename without suffix (e.g. "my_config" or "my_mod/my_config").
|
|
- data: Table containing data to be exported.
|
|
- styled: Outputs in a human-readable format if this is set (default: true).
|
|
```
