Foundry VTT Module Utility

This script helps manage Foundry VTT modules by saving a list of currently installed modules and their manifest URLs, or by loading (downloading and unzipping) modules from a previously saved list.

Features

• Save Mode:
  • Scans a specified directory (default: current directory) for module.json files.
  • Extracts the module's title (or name/ID) and its manifest URL.
  • Saves this information to a user-specified file in the saves directory (e.g., saves/my_module_setup.txt).
• Load Mode:
  • Lists available module profiles from the saves directory.
  • Prompts the user to select a profile to load.
  • For each module in the selected profile:
    • Fetches the remote module.json from the saved manifest URL.
    • Downloads the module package using the download URL found in the remote manifest.
    • Unzips the module into a specified directory (default: a subdirectory in the current directory, named after the module ID).
  • Handles modules packaged with a nested directory.
  • Avoids re-downloading or re-installing if the module directory already exists and contains a module.json.

Prerequisites

The following tools must be installed and accessible in your PATH:

• jq: For parsing JSON data from module.json files.
• wget: For downloading manifest files and module packages in load mode.
• unzip: For decompressing module packages in load mode.
• mktemp: For handling temporary files, especially for nested zip structures in load mode.
