Command words: comp, component
Permission: Admin

The component command is used to edit and view item components. Item components are shared definitions that can be added to items to give them some kind of functionality, like turning them into a container, making them into a weapon or giving them the ability to provide power.

The editing subcommands are all done on whichever item component the builder currently has open for editing.

The valid subcommands and their syntaxes are as follows:

comp edit new <type> - creates a new component of the specified type
comp types - lists the available component types
comp types +<keyword>|-<keyword> - lists the available component types with keyword filters
comp typehelp <type> - shows the COMP SET HELP for the requested type
comp edit <id> - opens component with ID for editing
comp edit - shows the currently open component. Equivalent to doing COMP SHOW <ID> on it.
comp edit submit - submits the open component for review
comp edit close - closes the currently open component
comp edit delete - deletes the current component (only if not approved)
comp edit obsolete - marks the current component as obsolete and no longer usable
comp show <ID> - shows info about component with ID
comp review all|mine|<admin name>|<id> - opens the specified components for review and approval
comp set <parameters> - makes a specific edit to a component. See COMP SET HELP for more info
comp list [<filters>] - lists all item components. See below for filters.

all - includes obsolete and non-current revisions
mine - only shows components you personally created
by <account> - only shows components the nominated account created
reviewed <account> - only shows components the nominated account has approved
+<keyword> - only shows components with the nominated keyword
-<keyword> - excludes components with the nominated keyword
<type> - shows only components of the specified type

Note: The following two subcommands take a long time and can sometimes cause issues with performance afterwards because of the aggressive loading of things that they do. You should generally plan to reboot the MUD immediately after running these.

comp update - updates all items with obsolete components or revisions to their current versions
comp update all - same as comp update, but also loads all characters so that their inventories are included
