API
d2am list
List all available addons from the addon directory.
d2am link [name]
Check the symlinks for an addon or for all addons if name
is not specified. If the destination directory already exists and the source is empty, the existing files will be copied in. Otherwise, the existing directory will be renamed ending in .old
.
d2am create <name>
Create the skeleton for name
inside the addons directory. This will automatically run d2am link
for this mod, following all of it's normal behavior.
Definition File
The links are also configurable unsing a very simply json structure. This is the default definition.json
file:
{
"game": "game/dota_addons/{ADDON_NAME}/",
"content": "content/dota_addons/{ADDON_NAME}/"
}
Each key is a directory relative to the addon's root directory, and each value is the destination link relative to the base directory. The string {ADDON_NAME}
is replaced with the name of the addon being linked.
