Figure Out What We Need/Can Use From Vortex about cyberpunk2077_ext_redux

[E1337Kat]

The "ModType" is, I know, useful in both installers (can use modtype for the testSupported) and for the "added_files" event. The "added_files" event is especially useful as it can be used to grab logs and other files added by a mod and pull it back to the staging folder. this allows an "un-deploy" to truly remove mods from the game folder. This would be good for us for foundational mods and the CET mods, I think.

History has some useful event references

api.getPath() for e.g. "userData"

api.lookupModMeta() might give us some info for manual installs. api.saveModMeta() saves?

api.runExecutable()

api.store.getState() or api.getState()

ctx.registerModSource()

ctx.registerMerge() maybe useful for non-xml merging

ctx.registerPreview() for some sort of diff/preview functionality.. maybe good enough for our needs?
