Feature Type

CLI enhancement

Priority

Medium - Would improve my workflow

Affected Components

  • MPQ archives
  • DBC/DB2 databases
  • BLP textures
  • M2 models
  • WMO world objects
  • ADT terrain
  • WDT/WDL world data
  • CLI interface
  • FFI/C bindings
  • Documentation
  • Build system
  • Cross-cutting/multiple components

Use Cases

  1. when working with MPQ archives from the community, listfiles are often not included in archives. Having at least a file extension will make life easier.

Technical Considerations

  • Do we need to read data from block tables?

Examples

cargo run --bin warcraft-rs -- mpq list ~/test.mpq
...
file_0001.blp
file_0002.m2
...
