PrettyScribe is a simple single-page web application that renders BattleScribe roster files in a (hopefully) useful format for viewing on device or printing. The PrettyScribe application is inspired by the (poorly named but quite useful) ButtScribe, http://www.buttscri.be/, application.
Currently PrettyScribe supports roster files for Warhammer 40k, Warhammer 40k Kill Team, Warhammer Age of Sigmar, Warhammer Warcry and Warhammer 30k.
This work was started as an exercise in learning web-development (Javascript, Typescript, etc.) and a passion for the table-top wargamming hobby in general.
PrettyScribe is very much a work in progress. Suggestions, bugs, comments are welcomed.
If you actually use this tool and find it useful let me know.
Prettyscribe is written in Typescript and uses npm for initialization, compiling and launching a test server at http://localhost:8080.
$ git clone https://github.com/rweyrauch/PrettyScribe.git
$ cd PrettyScribe
$ npm install
$ npm start
Prettyscribe uses webpack for compilation of the Typescript into Javascript and to bundle the Javascript source into a single Javascript file.
Prettyscribe can be built in either a debug or production release. The default is a debug build. To build PrettyScribe for debugging:
$ npm run build
To build PrettyScribe for release:
$ npm run buildprod
Prettyscribe uses jasmine tests to validate roster parsing. Test rosters live under the test/
directory. Test specs live under spec/
and are generated via a command, but should be reviewed
manually to verify changes.
Only 40k has tests, and parsing fixes must include minimal rosters and specs verifying the fix.
To run PrettyScribe tests:
$ npm test
To (re)generate PrettyScribe tests:
$ npm run writetests
