A fully Open-Source RPG Campaign Manager and World Building tool.
This tool is currently in early development and not ready for general use. Although the basic functionality now work, a lot of it is still fairly rough around the edges and potentially quite buggy. I strongly recommend against hosting this on a public server until it reaches a stable release.
- Create and manage multiple custom maps. Just upload a map image and draw on whatever points of interest you choose..
- Create unlimited amount of Locations, Buildings, NPC's, Players, Items, Events etc.
- Easily filter campaign content to find the content you need.
- Run as many campaigns as you like.
- Manage content using markdown, with drag & drop image uploading supported.
- Setup of requests (validation) and Better auth flow (email verification if none local).
- Move off of generated bootstrap entirely + setup better styling for all pages.
- More content types - for example stat blocks for common RPG style games.
- Some proper tests & CI.
- Utils "cli", to allow commands like
d6 2to provide the values of 2 d6 rolls.
This project is based on Laravel, so easy to get setup and working locally. You will need up to date PHP & MySQL available.
First off clone the repository down to where you want it to run.
git clone git@github.com:thybag/RPGCampaignManager.git
Navigate inside the cloned folder and run the following to install dependencies via composer, set app keys & link storage.
composer install && cp .env.example .env && php artisan key:generate && php artisan storage:link
Once the above is complete, open .env and replace the database settings with your local databases own details.
After that hit migrate.
php artisan migrate
At this point, you should be able to access the application from the public directory, You can now "register" your first user account and start your first campaign.
In addition to the above steps, to start building/working on the front end you will need to npm install and start the watch task.
npm install && npm run watch
If your interested in contributing to OSS, this project is super early days and based on a pretty standard PHP stack (Laravel, Leaflet etc.) so any help would be much appreciated. Please drop me a line on Github and I'm happy to point you in the right direction. I'm also open to direct PR's (Although theres a large risk of breaking changes / duplication of work given how early on everything is).
In addition to dev work, if anyone has a nice map image they'd be happy to be used in screen shot of the tool in use, please get in touch.
