Item search/filter web-app with OggDude data

By Dutzen, in Star Wars: Edge of the Empire RPG

Hi all,

a friend of mine and myself wrote a small web application to search, filter, and view items from the FFG Star Wars universe. This includes (at the moment) weapons, armor, and gear (more will come soon).

This tool was made to support Star Wars FFG role players to find weapons, armors and gear fast and easy. This web application offers a lot of possibilities to search and filter the items.

This website is optimized for mobile devices. This enables the players to search for their preferred items from their smartphones even when they are currently in a pen and paper session.

The data for the application comes from the awesome OggDude Chargen data XMLs and can be imported easily with help of a small php script.

You can either use our web-application or deploy it on your own web-server.

Furthermore, feel free to contribute to our little project by reporting bugs / features, submitting assets or providing programming support.

Please try it out and let us know what you think about it

FYI: I made an update which replaces "[BR]" in descriptions with a line break.

Very cool

This is a great tool man, good job. I'll definitely be using this.

I just released an update. The table header will stick now on the top when you scroll down.

I just made an account here just to say THANK YOU SO MUCH! Hahaha! I'm a new GM and I'm kind of struggling to get a grip of everything, going to have the first adventure next week with like 6 players and well this is AMAZING, again thank you so much! Great work :)

Nice work!

I rolled out a new version. Following things were changed:
- Multiple data sources can be merged by the xml to json conversion script. One data source could be the data from OggDude. Additional data sources could be created by your own. If you have a complete data set (with nice descriptions etc.) you can use this data too.
- The "Filter"-Button is now inside of the sticky table header on big screens.

Nice work.

Will you be adding other searchable features such as species and/or vehicles?

We will add adversaries, the weapons and armors of adversaries, item attachments and vehicles. Species are currently not planned.

You can see our current todo list here:

Cool.

Well add my vote for species if it is ever considered. Would be nice to filter by characteristics.

Phenomenal!

It's been quite a while since that other "Star Wars RPG Index" has been updated so this is a huge help!

Thanks for your hard work!

@Arrakus We have decided to implement species. Thank you for the idea.

I added a tab for species. It is possible to filter and sort by: Wound Threshold, Strain Threshold, Experience, Brawn, Agility, Intelect, Cunning, Willpower, Presence.

That's awesome.

Does anyone know if Mods will make their way there? What about Crafting templates?

This is fantastic.

Mods, especially lightsaber crystals and hilt mods, would be incredible.

We are planning to implement a extra tab for attachments. There you will see the possible mods too.

At first we will display the categories (e.g. Blaster Rifle, Heavy Blaster Rifle, Rifle, Heavy Rifle, Carbine) which will show to which weapon / armor the attachment can be added.

Later we will add a nice list of references to weapons and armors which the attachments can be attached to.

We will add adversaries too.

Here is a screenshot of a development branch which contains the current version of the adversary tab. When it is finished we will make it public.

Will every entry have a reference page number in its description? Or could there be an additional column with book and page info?

That would be nice for the species but I'm guessing it's not possible?
