Abdessamad Derraz f71b00615d fix: keep the system loop's declared entries apart
The per-system lookup named its dictionary declared, which the file loop below reassigns to a list, so the second system of a platform page raised AttributeError.

Abdessamad Derraz 7ecd8c948f chore: record the sha1 of bundled files
336 entries for files that arrive with the emulator named no hash, so
the collected copy was the only record of which file the release
ships. Each now carries the sha1 and size of the copy collected from
that emulator's own release, so the profile keeps the file's identity
once the copy leaves the collection. Entries whose name is a pattern
keep no hash.

Abdessamad Derraz f8e0b33314 feat: report a published export that fell behind
exports/ is committed but CI cannot rebuild it, since the originals it
patches live in the local cache. The native freshness check now runs
the export offline and compares it with the committed files, and
refresh_stale writes the export again after refreshing an original.

Abdessamad Derraz b6a1304893 feat: commit the corrected file of each platform
exports/ now holds the twelve platforms' own files, corrected, with a
report of every change, read by the site's corrected files page. Two
summaries are reworded for the page: an addition the format cannot
carry is counted as left out, and RetroPie names each skipped package
by sentence instead of joining reasons with semicolons. Its parser no
longer reads "e.g" as a file name.

Abdessamad Derraz b3b3880c19 chore: say which repository each source_ref cites
Profiles that read two repositories, a libretro port and its upstream,
now prefix each citation with source or upstream, decided by which tree
carries the cited value at its pin. The emulator pages use the word to
tell libretro glue, emulator code as the port carries it, and the
upstream emulator apart.

Abdessamad Derraz 205ae5fadb fix: a dual-mode name reaches its libretro profile
Batocera, Recalbox and RetroBat launch pcsx2 standalone and as LRPS2.
The name matched the standalone profile's key, so lrps2, which lists
pcsx2 among its cores, was left out and its files never reached those
packs. A name in dual_mode_cores now also resolves to the libretro
profiles that claim it.

Abdessamad Derraz f84eadd954 fix: name the emulators of systems no profile ids
RetroArch, Lakka, RetroPie, EmuDeck and RetroBat group NAOMI and
Atomiswave as sega-dreamcast-arcade and the Enterprise 64 and 128 as
one system. No profile uses those ids, so the emulator cell was empty.
When no id matches, a platform page now names the emulators that read
a file the system lists. Archive members do not count.

Abdessamad Derraz ca13e6036d feat: publish the corrected platform files
export_native now writes into exports/ by default, and beside each
platform's corrected file a report naming every change, where the run
printed five per kind. A new site page lists each platform with its
original file, a download of the corrected one and every corrected,
filled or withheld value. Each platform page links to its row.

Abdessamad Derraz 71b59eb2a3 docs: rewrite half-dash asides in comments
Dropping the double-dash asides left 72 comments and docstrings with
half a dash glued to the next word ("shape -a size or a size range -is
all"). They now read as a colon, a comma or parentheses, and a prose
style test names any that comes back.

Abdessamad Derraz e424a35aee feat: install one emulator's files in one command
install.py --emulator NAME keeps what the named emulators read on the detected platform: their own files and the platform's files of the systems they run, as a pack built for them carries, without the systems no core is mapped to. Each emulator page now gives that command for Linux, macOS and Windows, beside the per-file links.

Abdessamad Derraz 7c94a58825 feat: tell libretro glue from emulator code
A libretro port carries the emulator's own sources beside its glue: pcem cites src/mem.c in the port, which is PCem's code. A citation in the port is labelled libretro glue when it is one of the libretro interface files, emulator code otherwise, and upstream emulator when it is in the original repository.

Abdessamad Derraz 9b630a39bb fix: hold the new profiles to the shared checks
BizHawk's NDS firmware slot accepts six dumps, two of which the collection holds, and the profile named one. Kega Fusion's US Mega CD BIOS covers the Americas. Sonic 3 A.I.R. data is installed by Batocera in unpacked form. izApple2 downloads its ProDOS images when a card is added, which is no install. The Lakka list now equals a case-keeping RetroArch install less what Lakka's packages install, and the profile hash contradiction count leaves out entries no pack ships. The pipeline table names step 8b.

Abdessamad Derraz 274db1322f fix: the second extras pass reads installed marks
A file a core reads at several destinations is added again at each one by a second pass that worked from the raw profile entries, so files the emulator or the platform's package installs came back into the packs and manifests by that route: the installer's per-target replay disagreed with the builder on six files.

Abdessamad Derraz ceaca2bf1d chore: record what each platform installs
Each platform's own packages were read at the revision our data pins, for every emulator and core it ships: Batocera, Recalbox, RetroPie, ROCKNIX, Lakka, RetroDECK, RetroBat and EmuDeck. Files a package installs where the emulator reads them are recorded with installed_on, and files a release bundles but a package leaves out with not_bundled_on, so each platform's pack brings what its users lack and nothing they already have. The standalone profiles never checked before were held against their releases the same way. Batocera's imame4all is the mame2000 core. The primary neogeo.zip was a 7.7 KB placeholder no platform pins and no pack served: removed, the real dumps stay in .variants.

Abdessamad Derraz 954f213d42 fix: one id per card, and render the site locally
A copy filed under two consoles of one maker was listed twice with the same id, and a data directory listed the same bytes twice, so the site deploy refused 20 pages. The first card keeps the id. The pipeline only generated the pages, so it now renders them with mkdocs build --strict and runs validate_site as the deploy does. The resumed-speed test read the clock and failed on a slow runner, it now fixes the elapsed time.

Abdessamad Derraz 6df087e3e9 fix: a platform's own data trees leave its pack
The platform layer names data trees for its systems: retroarch.yml carries dolphin-sys and ppsspp-assets, and Lakka inherits them, while Lakka's core packages install both trees into the system directory. A profile records that with installed_on on its data directory, and the pack and the install manifest now leave those trees out for that platform.

Abdessamad Derraz 4227aee9b4 docs: explain why the pack leaves a file out
A file the emulator installs itself is left out of the packs, per build and per platform. The profiling guide documents bundled, installed_on and not_bundled_on, the FAQ says why a file the emulator reads may be missing from a pack, and an emulator page names the build that installs it and the platforms whose package differs.

Abdessamad Derraz 8b203e397c chore: mark what the new profiles' installs bring
The profiles written for RetroBat and RetroPie were checked the same way: UZDoom, LZDoom, SRB2 and AdvanceMAME data ship with their releases, RetroPie installs the shareware Doom, Quake III and Wolfenstein data, the Aleph One scenarios and 4DOS beside the ports it builds, RetroBat installs Jynx's ROMs, and Recalbox's uae4all core comes without the AROS ROMs.

Abdessamad Derraz 042ee955d6 feat: list data directory files and revision
A data directory appeared on its emulator page as a URL whose content moves, and the 2,534 files the packs ship from these trees were on no page. Each tree now shows the revision it was fetched at and its files with size and sha1, and the site lookup by sha1 resolves them. The page description reads the repository list the JSON-LD now carries.

Abdessamad Derraz 1ff2bfc3c0 fix: the API schema holds each endpoint's fields
The data page promises that v1 fields are only ever added, and the envelope schema left items unconstrained, so a renamed field passed validation. Each kind now lists the fields its items carry and their types.

Abdessamad Derraz 1bbb1d4749 fix: emulator JSON-LD names every repository read
The structured data of an emulator page published one repository and one commit. A profile whose builds live in two repositories, or a port with an upstream_commit, now lists each repository with its own pin.

Abdessamad Derraz 08396be3c6 fix: the collection DAT names sets by subfolder
The collection DAT named its sets "Sony - PlayStation", and the data page said it audits a copy of bios/. clrmamepro and RomVault looked for a folder of that name and reported the 330 sets missing. A Logiqx set name writes a subfolder with a backslash: Sony\PlayStation.

Abdessamad Derraz bb19a6d5cf feat: profile what RetroBat and RetroPie run
100 emulator names the two platforms run had no profile, so their packs carried nothing for them. Each was read from the platform's own launcher or scriptmodule: the same program as an existing profile takes the name in cores:, a different build gets its own profile read from that version, a launcher or self-contained game goes to remove_cores, and the rest are new profiles written from their source or shipped binary. The files they need that the collection lacked are collected from the upstream distributions. Bungie and splitwolf trees are read by path and stay out of dedup.

Abdessamad Derraz 9f8a2a9fe2 chore: mark what each emulator install brings
Every bundled flag was checked against the release or the build recipe of the build that reads the file. A libretro core zip holds the core alone: fMSX, Nuance, ep128emu and PCEE2 files the source tree carries are no longer bundled, and blueMSX, ARMSX2, YAPS2, Cemu and Jazz2 entries are split per build. Files the release ships and the profile missed are now bundled (POM2, ZQuest Classic, EmuCoreX, Linux Loader). Platform packages that differ are named: Batocera installs hcl and Hurrican without their data, ROCKNIX ships touchHLE's Liberation Sans fonts only, Batocera and RetroPie install blueMSX's machines beside the core.
2026-10-20 06:11:39 +02:00
Abdessamad Derraz f7d57dd91d feat: a platform package can differ from upstream
bundled describes the emulator's own release, and a platform package can differ both ways: Batocera's hcl package installs the binary alone and sends users to fetch the data, while its blueMSX core package copies the machines and databases beside the core. not_bundled_on and installed_on name those platforms, and the builder reads them through one rule.

Abdessamad Derraz 36e30beac0 docs: give the troubleshooting topics headings

Abdessamad Derraz 0ade9c8339 docs: say what a pack holds in plain words

Abdessamad Derraz 2cba2383ca refactor: move the prose citation grammar

Abdessamad Derraz a07821d810 feat: list files only an emulator install provides
A file installed with its emulator is already on the user's machine and the packs leave it out. bundled_only.py lists the collected copies nothing else needs: no platform declares them, no entry of any build needs them, no install manifest ships them.
2026-10-20 06:05:20 +02:00
Abdessamad Derraz ddc7432825 feat: packs leave out what the emulator installs
A file or tree installed with the emulator is already on the user's machine, so packs, install manifests and verify's pack count leave it out. bundled is scoped by mode like any entry: Dolphin's Sys and PPSSPP's assets ship with the standalone releases, not with the libretro cores, so they now follow the libretro build only and still reach RetroArch packs. PrimeHack, standalone only, ships its own Sys.

Abdessamad Derraz c589ed49b8 fix: the site says 1 file, not 1 files

Abdessamad Derraz 49c7bacc46 fix: a file copy is listed on its folder's page
The database keeps one path per content, so a copy filed under another manufacturer was on no page of its own: the Channel F BIOS sat under Arcade > FBNeo and Fairchild had no system page. Every folder holding a copy now lists it, read from the full paths by_path_suffix records, and the index counts each content once.

Abdessamad Derraz 77ae9a7f74 fix: every accepted md5 is its own search word
Recalbox lists accepted md5s joined by commas, and platform pages printed the list as one code span. The site search took it for a single word, so 198 accepted values could not be found. Each value now has its own span.
2026-10-20 05:52:59 +02:00
Abdessamad Derraz dec0fdc163 feat: each citation names the code that asks
A profile that reads a libretro core and the original emulator cited both trees alike, and readers could not tell whether the core or the emulator asked for a file. A cited path now opens with source or upstream, the repository its lines are in. Emulator code a port carries is attributed upstream when the original holds the same value on the cited line.

profile_sync --attribute-refs writes the words from where the lines are found and follows a word already written. The site links each citation to that repository's pin, labels it libretro core or upstream emulator, and says on each file card whose code asks for it. A recale keeps the word, and mame_ref_audit reads the tree it names.
2026-10-20 05:52:13 +02:00
Abdessamad Derraz adea35e12a fix: a recale keeps the repository word of a ref
A source_ref written as `stella src/a.c:120` names the repository its lines are in. The path is read without the word, and --rebase-refs wrote the new span back without it, losing the attribution.
2026-10-20 05:46:09 +02:00
Abdessamad Derraz 10a1f475b0 feat: prose citations link to the pinned source
Notes, file notes and platform details carried file:line citations as plain text although profile_sync keeps each on the profile's pin. A citation now links when the profile reads one repository and the path is rooted or already used by a structured source_ref. Platform detail source_refs go through the same renderer as file cards.
