What about metadata file

[olup]

I am still implementing a CLI tool for lunii in golang, I'll post the repo around here once it has been published.

I think it would be extremely useful to have some metadata in the packs loaded on the lunii - I mean lunii's catalog is enough for official packs but side looaded pack then rely on a separate database that lives on the host, and it's not ideal.

I know you have been thinking the same from this comment

studio/core/src/main/java/studio/core/v1/writer/fs/FsStoryPackWriter.java

Line 44 in 2aeb465

// TODO Enriched metadata in a dedicated file (pack's title, description and thumbnail, nodes' name, group, type and position)

So I will implement something like this for my cli, but I thought we could sync on what to use.

Top of my head, a simple md file, with a friendly format, either YAML or JSON (but I think json makes more sense) with at least the pack's complete uuid (the one that appears in the root's .pi file) and a title.

What do you think ?

Yes that would be very nice. I added a few data in "raw" file format but was limited to stay compatible. No such limits with the "fs" file format. Did you end up implementing this?
