Container

A container for an ongoing game run by the user.

A Campaign groups the content and live state of one table: its own pages, maps, encounters and entities, plus the currently running Game, the map on screen and the set of loaded maps. Exactly one campaign is primary at a time — that is the campaign the battle map and player display are driving.

Where a Module is authored content that is distributed, a campaign is the user’s own working container; content can belong to either, or to both.

Each campaign owns a directory under URL.campaigns/<id> (see dataURL) holding its images and other resources.

Property Type Required Description
id string Yes The unique identifier for this campaign. A UUID string automatically generated when the campaign is created. This serves as the primary key in the Realm database and names the campaign’s data directory on disk.
system string No The game system this campaign is played with. Identifies which game system or ruleset the campaign’s content targets. Should be lowercased. A nil value marks the campaign as system-agnostic.
Examples: "dnd5e"; "pf2e" SeeAlso: System
name string Yes The display name of the campaign. The primary human-readable identifier shown in the library and campaign switcher.
Examples: "The Sunless Citadel"
slug string Yes A URL-friendly identifier for the campaign. A simplified, lowercase version of the name suitable for use in URLs, file paths, or as a readable unique identifier. Used to resolve links such as /campaign/the-sunless-citadel/map/entrance.
Examples: "the-sunless-citadel"
descr string No The full description of the campaign. Contains the premise, running notes, or overview of the campaign. Displayed in detail views.
shortDescr string No A condensed one-line description of the campaign. A brief summary used where the full descr is too long, such as list rows and cards.
image string No The file path to the campaign’s cover image. The main visual asset shown for the campaign in the library. Note: Relative file paths are resolved against the campaign’s dataURL.
Examples: "cover.jpg"
banner string No The file path to the campaign’s banner image. A wide image used as a header behind the campaign’s title. Note: Relative file paths are resolved against the campaign’s dataURL.
Typical Specifications: Wide aspect ratio (roughly 3:1); At least 1200 pixels wide
tags Array<string> Yes Custom tags for categorization and filtering. A flexible tagging system allowing users to organize campaigns with custom labels.
Example Tags: "active", "archived", "one-shot"
references Array<string> Yes Additional reference links pinned to this campaign. Stores URLs to content the game master wants quick access to during play — pages, entities, rules references.
Examples: "/module/lost-mine-of-phandelver/page/goblin-ambush"; "/monster/goblin"
data Object No Flexible JSON storage for system-specific or arbitrary structured data. Stores metadata that does not fit the standard schema, allowing campaigns to carry system-specific information without schema modifications. Note: The structure of this data varies by system.
attributes Object Yes Dynamic attribute storage supporting various data types. A flexible key-value store for attributes and properties that need to be queryable or frequently accessed. Supports multiple data types through RealmAny.
Common Attributes: Custom fields defined by the loaded system.
systemVersion string No The game system version this campaign’s content was authored against. Records the system version to support data migration, debugging, and compatibility tracking across game system updates.
Format: Semantic versioning: "1.2.3" Note: Useful for identifying campaigns created with older system versions that may need migration.

A container for a distributable body of game content.

A Module groups together everything shipped as one unit — pages, maps, encounters, groups, references, assets and entities. Modules are imported from .module archives or downloaded as a Package, and every piece of content they own is deleted with them.

Each module owns a directory under URL.modules/<id> (see dataURL) holding its images, page assets, fonts and other resources.
