Outer Wilds Mod Database

Uses the mod list in mods.json of the source branch, fetches the required data for each mod. That data is then added to database.json in the master branch. The process happens automatically every once in a while.

The database is deployed to GitHub Pages, since GitHub aggressively caches direct access to the raw file in the repo. So if you want to read from the database, you should use this URL: https://ow-mods.github.io/ow-mod-db/database.json

Or, if you want, you can edit the mod list yourself and open a PR

How it works

GitHub Actions are used to periodically update the database. Check the Update Releases workflow and the TypeScript code that fetches the data about each mod and generates the database.
