Creating your own netkan files - KSP-CKAN/CKAN GitHub Wiki

If you want to create your own .netkan files:

  1. Go to this website: https://ksp-ckan.github.io/metadata-webtool
  2. Populate it with your mod's information
  3. Copy the resulting file and save a copy somewhere.
  4. You can choose to send a pull request to the main CKAN metadata repo.

If your mod's github releases don't have any assets included in them (they show up as Source code), you will need to add this to the .netkan:

x_netkan_github:
  use_source_archive: true 

Alternatively, you may specify a download & version in the netkan manually (see optional overrides in the metadata webtool).
