gamepiece-json's Issues

Half done games and formatting/standardization

This project has had some awesome response for Hacktoberfest. If you're looking for a couple PRs for Hacktoberfest, this project is super easy and straightforward.

With so many contributions, each person does their game differently. I have some unit tests in place, but the games need some human review. In general games could use a standard formatting, and a specific structure. If you see something that can be standardized, feel free to make the change.

There are also a couple bigger games that are partially done, or games that are marked off that could still be improved on.

Take a look at the Projects tab for some quick and simple tasks that could be done

Opening up for Hacktoberfest

Looking to get some PRs for Hacktoberfest?
This project is straightforward and easy for beginners and seasoned veterans alike.

I'm writing a collection of game piece lists for popular board games.
This is fairly straight forward, search for your favorite board game piece list and format it (generally following the other JSON files in this repo) to JSON.

Game Rule Books

If you're looking for some last minute contributions for Hacktoberfest, this is a quick easy contribution.

Find a game folder that doesn't yet have a PDF of the rules, google and find them, and include them in the folder. The PDF should have any full-page ads removed, named rulebook-<game> where <game> will be as it appears on the .json file. Also add the attribute "file": "<filename>" to the JSON file.

A list of tasks for rulebooks on the projects tab.

Thanks!

Handle multiple publishers

Many successful games are published by multiple publishers in various countries, eg Catan. Perhaps publisher should be publishers?

Which publisher is currently represented? Generally the US one, I'm guessing.

Or maybe, because publishers change over time, publisher is not relevant metadata? (designer may be more relevant).

Unit tests don't catch multiple rulebook attributes if at same level

List Star Munchkin Cards

Reference: http://www.worldofmunchkin.com/starmunchkin/cards.html

Enumerate Ticket to Ride Destination Cards

Apples to Apples - enumerate cards

This will be a bit of work; list out all the noun and adjective cards.

Blokus - enumerate piece shapes

List out the shapes of the pieces for Blokus.
This way I can know which of the 21 pieces I would be missing, should I find out I only have 20.

Test for rulebook as last attribute

If the file has a rulebook listed as one of it's pieces, I would like it to show up as the last attribute in pieces. This is a bit tricky since order isn't as guaranteed with objects rather than arrays.

Blokus - add rulebook

Catan is missing resource and development cards

See https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/13/catan/wiki

Linting does not catch duplicate keys

When using the provided JSON.parse method or the lint.parse provided by jsonlint, duplicate keys do not throw an error.
I would like them to, and am creating an issue with jsonlint as they describe the package as replicating the service provided on jsonlint.com which does fail on duplicate keys.

King of Tokyo - Power Cards

The rulebook states there are 66 power cards (as does the json file in this project). However, there are more than 66 cards listed in the types array.

Find out which listed cards are not part of the 66 included in the game.

Cards Against Humanity - enumerate cards

This will be a bit of work; listing out all the black and white cards.
