go-gma
Golang port of the GMA core API libraries.
This is a work in progress. Only a small portion of the GMA API core library has been ported to this point.
GMA?
This is part of a larger project called GMA (Game Master's Assistant) which is a suite of tools to facilitate the play of table-top fantasy role-playing games. It provides a GM toolset for planning encounters, tracking character state, and running encounters in a comprehensive way. This includes a multi-user interactive tactical battle map where players can move their tokens around the map, initiative is managed automatically, etc.
While we intend to open source GMA eventually, it's not quite ready for general use (mostly because it needs to be generalized more to be playable on multiple game systems and less tied to the author's game group). The manual describing the full GMA product may be downloaded here (PDF, 61Mb).
In the mean time, we're porting one part of the GMA suite (the interactive map server) to Go for increased stability and performance, which we will release as open source ahead of the rest of GMA, since it's independent of the generalization issues that are gating the release of GMA.
To support this, the go-gma repository holds parts of the core GMA API
needed by the map server.
Documentation
API docs may be viewed at pkg.go.dev.
Versioning
We are keeping the version numbers for this project in sync with
the main GMA project, so version x.y.z of go-gma will always
be compatible with version x.y.z of gma. (This is why go-gma started at
at v4. It moved to v5 when the JSON formats were introduced as a breaking change.)
