DESCRIPTION

Report parser and scripting tool for Galaxy Plus.

SUMMARY

Galaxy Plus is a play-by-email (PBEM) game that was very popular some time ago. This code allows you to parse Galaxy Plus / Dragon Galaxy report files and builds ActiveRecord models for its data artifacts. you can further use these artifacts to build automation scripts and whatnot. I have used this tool to efficiently manage even such monstrous game format as ‘research’, with literally thousands of planets and tens of thousands ship groups to take care of each turn.

This gem does not include specific automation add-ons (mine were too specific and tightly integrated into external scripting frameworks). However, you can easily build such scripts on top of data models provided here.

Since I do not play Galaxy Plus any longer, no further development of this code is expected from my side, so I release it into public domain for anyone to use and enjoy.

INSTALLATION

$ gem install galaxy
