TL;DR Use the listfiles from releases from now on, NOT the listfiles in the repository.
Direct links for the latest full listfile from the latest release:
community-listfile.csv
community-listfile-withcapitals.csv
Longer explanation: Due to the 100MB size limit on files inside Git repositories, complete versions of both community-listfile.csv and community-listfile-withcapitals.csv will from now on be distributed through GitHub releases. The compiled listfiles currently in the repository do not have filenames that end with .dat, .unk or .meta to save on space to temporarily allow them to stay updated with new files/changes. Further space saving will be applied by removing placeholder/unknown filenames until that no longer works, at which point the latest updated listfile will only be available through releases. The listfiles in the repo will stay for a while for backwards compatibility, but will likely be removed at some point in the future once they haven't been updated for a while.
Update September 8th 2023
Due to the large amount of files added in 10.2, all files from parts/placeholder.csv will now also be kept out of the in-repository listfile.
This removes all filenames that contain their own FileDataID as well as other placeholder names. The list of rules that dictate a file being a placeholder file is available here.
If you want a listfile with these files included, I strongly urge you to switch to the release version of the listfile if you haven't already.
This repository contains listfiles for use with World of Warcraft as well as some related scripts/tools.
As of WoW: Battle for Azeroth, many files have lost their lookup hash which allowed us to verify and map filenames for a file. For that reason, a new listfile was created that binds names to file IDs instead. There are 2 different listfiles available, community-listfile.csv which is normalized to only contain lowercase filenames and community-listfile-withcapitals.csv with varied casing for user friendliness.
When downloading one of the community listfiles, make sure to use the one from the latest release as the ones in the repository itself are either outdated or missing certain files to stay under the 100MB file limit imposed by GitHub.

Please open a new issue by picking the "CSV listfile suggestion" and attaching your suggestions in the form of a .txt file. Do not make pull requests.
Due to lookup hashes largely being unavailable we are no longer able to verify the filenames for most files. As such, all files with unverifiable filenames (most files since 8.2) can change their name at any time if a better name is thought of/submitted, especially if the current filename is a placeholder filename (for example by having unk, unknown, autogen or a filedataid in the name). If you work on/with tools that rely on the filenames in the listfile being "stable", please keep this note in mind.
This listfile should only contain verified and/or official names and as such will not have many names from modern WoW expansions.
