@vttforge/cli / readManifest

Function: readManifest()

readManifest(distDir): Promise<FoundryManifest>

Experimental

Locate and parse the Foundry manifest inside the given dist directory. Prefers system.json, falls back to module.json (a single dist can't be both; the vite plugin emits exactly one based on the project type).

Throws if neither file exists, required fields are missing/non-string, or the id/version contain characters that would let downstream join() calls escape their intended directory.

Shape is unproven: no consumer has asked for this yet. It can change in a minor.

Parameters

distDir

string

Returns

Promise<FoundryManifest>
