noggog/bethesdagitsync

A program for syncing Bethesda mods from their natural binary format to a git commitable text folder format.

bethesdagitsync's Issues

Improved Corruption Handling

If a corrupted sync occurs, be able to:

• move the results somewhere.
• force corrupted patch application

Empty Xml Folder warning

Finish group implementation

• Add new group
• delete group
• reorder groups
• Ctrl 1/2/3 keybinds to switch

Sync cancellation button

Got format

First time warning for sync all executions

Pop up dialog if the sync all in group functionality is triggered, just as a tutorial-esque feature. Can select "do not show again" to hide going forward

Backup paths take group into account

Have them put the mapping's group in their backup pathing

Sync in progress/completed styling

Flair things up a bit with some flashes after completion, etc

Navigate command missing path handling

Duplicate mappings warning

Need to detect if a group has mappings that wire to duplicate targets, and block/warn about those conflicts. Without this, the threaded syncing will likely collide.

Other fancier mapping conflict resolution is probably possible, but overkill.

Maybe just limit it to selected items, so that a user can have a group with duplicates, but would only be an "issue" if all are selected in preparation for some sync

Move to other group functionality

A context menu option (/w keybind?) to move the selected bindings to a different group.

Will likely pop up a dialog to select the target group

Make sure to move any related backup files related to #14

Keybinds

• Control + 1/2/3 to navigate groups
• Control + B/G to sync selected items
• Control + Shift + B/G to sync all in group

Option to turn off threading

Context Menu

• Settings
• Move to Group
• Navigate to backup
• Navigate in explorer

JSON support

Add the ability to store as JSON in git folders.

Relies on https://github.com/Noggog/Mutagen/issues/1

Old version handling

Need to design some mechanisms for keeping older folder formats translatable, even if the app/format has been updated.

One idea is to store the converter program itself in the git folder, as an absolute manual backup route.

Another idea is to "register" each version of a translation app into a shared cloud repo. With version numbers in the folder representations, older versions can be detected, and the translator "app" needed can be downloaded from the repo and used for that one translation to bring things back up to speed.

Help text if in group with no bindings

Just some flavor text to help the user add their first binding if they're looking at an empty group

"This program syncs between binary mod files and git folder representations. You will want to add some mappings to start syncing back and forth."

Bethesda game type detection/display

As other Bethesda game's support are added, we'll need to either detect which games they are for, and also maybe display an icon of that game

Ability to locate/navigate to backup folder location
