• VDF (Valve Data Format)

  • This is Valve's internal data format as used in the Source Engine games. TF2's GetSchema returns data similar to "items/items_game.txt" (although qualities are not expanded into objects with a "value" field).
    
  • Documentation is available on the Valve Developer Community wiki and on the Official Team Fortress 2 wiki.
    
  • Arrays in the data are represented as a VDF array with the name of the type of the objects in the array, with a VDF array being an object with each item being prefixed with its numeric key as a quoted string.
    
  • Null is represented as an empty string.
