Collate

Efficient tModLoader ModCompile (mod building) toolchain alternative.

---

Collate is an alternative, free (as in both free speech and free beer) build toolchain for tModLoader 2022.x.x.x (1.4).

Collate attempts to supercharge your mod development experience by providing a flexible, easy-to-use build toolchain packed full with additional features.

Features

Implemented

• MSBuild toolchain.
  • All building is handled through the dotnet CLI tool and MSBuild.
• build.txt properties in your .csproj file.
  • You can specify build properties like the mod display name in your .csproj instead of a separate file.
• Private member accessing
  • With the power of access transformers, mods can access non-public members without needing reflection.
• Root namespace requirement bypassing.
  • Your root namespace may now differ from your mod's internal name.

Planned

• Automatic mod dependeny resolution.
• build.txt and description.txt in other spots, redirected through a mod's .csproj.
