Shrink Stardew Valley mod files by optimizing assets.
To build this project have rust and cargo available in the latest version and run cargo build.
Now you will find the binary at target/debug/stardew-minifier which you can directly execute or
use cargo run for convenience.
Call stardew-minifier with the path to a mod archive (usually a *.zip file, but *.tzst or
*.tar.zst are supported too) and it will extract the files to a temp folder, process each and pack
it back together into an archive.
Alternatively a folder to an already extracted mod can be passed as well.
The output archive is in *.tzst format by default, which is a Zstandard compressed TAR
archive. If that's problematic due to upload requirements or missing support for that format, the
--format flag can be used to change to a *zip archive instead.
Optionally specific types of optimizations can be disabled with any of the --no-* flags in case
it is not wished or the file type can't be processed properly. Especially JSON files are often not
proper in many mods.
For any further options run stardew-minifier --help.
