TCG Collector tools resources folder

The TCG Collector tools resources folder stores various TCG Collector tools resource files.

Resource files must be put in a separate folder per resource type, TCG region, and expansion (if applicable).

File and folder names are required to follow these conventions, and the conventions found in the documentation of the TCG Collector tools resources.

Examples:

  • cards/international/base-set/58-102.card.json
  • cards/japan/25th-anniversary-collection/no-031.card.json
  • expansions/international/base-set.expansion.json

Exports folder

This folder contains resource files directly exported from the TCG Collector database using the cms export command.

Staged folder

This folder is intended as a location to temporarily store resource files that are to be consumed by the TCG Collector tools CMS. It has the following subfolders:

  1. to be reviewed: The resource files might contain errors and need to be reviewed first.
  2. to be uploaded: The resource files are guaranteed to be correct and are ready to be consumed by the TCG Collector tools CMS.

Once a resource file has been reviewed, it must be moved to the to be uploaded folder. Once a resource file has been consumed by the TCG Collector CMS, it must be deleted from this storage location.
