This repository has been created to provide a static and discoverable API for the internal data of the discontinued game LEGE Universe.

It is meant to be pregenerated by Paradox or some equivaled tool and statically served as a github page.

The repository may be used as an online resource for any client in need of browsing LU data. A reference implementation is planned, which will provide a LU themed webapp to display the game content, similar to a wiki or game guide.

Other clients are welcome to request features or other preprocessing for this API

As the API will be pregenerated (at least for the initial development), it will not be possible to provide full-text search or other custom queries.

It may be possible to develop a glossary of sorts which may be used for searching purposes. Ideally the data will have several different entry points to allow for different perspectives and navigation stategies.

This repository is the XML flavor of this API. There will be a JSON equivalent available at lu-json.

The repository is served in conformance with the XML-HAL Specification for easy discoverability

I am convinced that this repository constitutes an instance of "fair use" as it is used for entirely non-commercial purposes. I would advise that any other user of this data does so on the same terms.
