Papyrus Script Reference Generation and Automation

On a high level, the overall idea is to write something that crawls each psc source file that comes with the Creation Kit to build a page for every native base script.

But the problem with generating pages for every release would be that it stomps any change added by a user. Also, Bethesda doesn't really change papyrus that much.

My vision was to generate the initial pages as a means of harvesting accurate data. But then spend time hand editing them to look really nice and be thoughtfully templated and cross-linked.

On top of visual presentation, I want the pages to be a repository of tacit knowledge and notes informed by research. Stuff that is not easy to automate.

Perhaps we can automate output for specific sections of pages.

Or have a dedicated "changes" page like SFM:Papyrus_Changes that acts as a change log that might be automated. Then wiki editors could hand update pages based on the automated change log.

Links

• Code Repository: https://github.com/Creation-Hub/UESP.Wiki

Goals - Create and upload initial page generation.

• Create site templates the generator can plug data into and be easily maintainable on the site.
• Consider creating a dedicated game file change log page.

Papyrus Script Reference Notes

• Consider how to organize script members.
• Consider how to organize individual member pages.
• Consider how to organize new SFSE/Other Papyrus scripts.
• Consider how to organize vanilla script with SFSE/Other Papyrus extensions.
• Consider how to organize "Default" scripts which often have instance data.
