# DS4
An implementation of the [Dungeonslayers] 4 game system for [Foundry Virtual
Tabletop].
This system provides sheet support for Actors and Items and mechanical support
for dice and rules necessary to play games of Dungeonslayers 4.
## Installation
To install and use the Dungeonslayers 4 system for Foundry Virtual Tabletop,
find it in the list in the **Install System** dialog on the Setup menu of the
application. Alternatively, paste the following Manifest URL in that dialog:
https://git.f3l.de/dungeonslayers/ds4/-/releases/permalink/latest/downloads/system.json
## Development
### Prerequisites
In order to build this system, recent versions of `node` and `pnpm` are
required. Most likely using `npm` or `yarn` also works but only `pnpm` is
officially supported. We recommend using the latest lts version of `node`. If
you use `nvm` to manage your `node` versions, you can simply run
```
nvm install
```
in the project's root directory.
You also need to install the project's dependencies. To do so, run
```
pnpm install
```
### Building
You can build the project by running
```
pnpm build
```
Alternatively, you can run
```
pnpm watch
```
to watch for changes and automatically build as necessary.
### Linking the built system to Foundry VTT
In order to provide a fluent development experience, it is recommended to link
the built system to your local Foundry VTT installation's data folder. In order
to do so, first add a file called `foundryconfig.json` to the project root with
the following content:
```
{
"dataPath": "<path to your home directory>/.local/share/FoundryVTT"
}
```
On platforms other than Linux you need to adjust the path accordingly.
Then run
```
pnpm link-package
```
### Running the tests
You can run the tests with the following command:
```
pnpm test
```
