BSData Repositories

BSData is a community group that makes and hosts game data. It is not required: NewRecruit loads data from any GitHub repository, so you can host your own wherever you like. BSData is simply one place a lot of data happens to live, and its repositories are useful as reference examples: real, maintained data you can open in the NR editor to see how established systems model their rules.

Game data repos worth studying

Larger, actively-maintained systems make the best reference material: they've hit the edge cases you'll hit. Sorted roughly by popularity/activity:

Requesting a BSData repo

To have your data hosted under the BSData organization, open an issue on catalogue-development requesting a new repository.

You don't need any of BSData's tooling to publish. A repository with your data files at the root loads straight into NewRecruit; see Publishing Your Data.

Community

The BSData community coordinates and answers data questions on the BSData Discord.
