Note: Although they appear to be SWORD modules, and SWORD modules work on their MK program, some of these modules do not work on standard SWORD software. This is because the MK program was based on a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_fork fork] of the SWORD engine source code, adapted to seamlessly provide dual versification for a variant of the Russian Synodal Translation (RST) versification and that of the KJV. Central Asian translations generally follow the RST. With the advent of [[Alternate Versification]] in SWORD, it is envisaged that the MK program will be made fully compatible with the SWORD API. The newer modules (version 3.0) released by IBT are now totally SWORD compatible, though their earlier modules are still incompatible. See also [[zipped modules#xulsword]].

Revision as of 17:17, 15 July 2023

The Repository directory has to be specified for the Install Manager in the SWORD Project for Windows, which uses FTP access. Likewise for the other front-ends based on the SWORD API.

The Catalog & ZIP directories have to be specified for the JSword based installer (e.g. as used for Bible Desktop), which uses HTTP access.

The 'Site Name' field is just a convenient name for managing/selecting repositories. Users may edit these without any loss of functionality, as long as they ensure that each is uniquely and appropriately named.

CrossWire maintains a Master Repositories List (filename: masterRepoList.conf) which is accessed by most front-end applications. Some front-ends require a refresh operation to ensure that the latest edition of the MRL is installed. The MRL includes some but not all of CrossWire repositories and some of the Affiliated repositories.

Some front-end apps (e.g. PocketSword) permit the manual addition of an FTP source though the Download UI.

Some front-end apps (e.g. Xiphos) also permit the manual addition of an HTTP source via the Module Manager UI.

CrossWire Bible Society

Released modules

Official module repository from CrossWire Bible Society. This is included in the Master Repositories List. It now includes modules with Alternate Versifications.

 Site Name:              CrossWire Bible Society (main)

 ZIP Directory:          /ftpmirror/pub/sword/packages/rawzip

Module Attic

Official module repository from CrossWire Bible Society for the previous version of released modules. Look here if you have updated to a new version of a module, discover that there are bugs or errors, and want to downgrade. This is not included in the Master Repositories List.

 Site Name:              CrossWire Attic
 Site Machine Name:      ftp.crosswire.org
 Repository Directory:   /pub/sword/atticraw/

Modules for Beta testing

This is included in the Master Repositories List. Please test these modules and report your findings by email to modules@crosswire.org - Beta modules should be validated before being transferred to the main CrossWire repository.

 Site Name:              CrossWire Beta
 Site Machine Name:      ftp.crosswire.org
 Repository Directory:   /pub/sword/betaraw
 Catalog Directory:      /ftpmirror/pub/sword/betaraw
 ZIP Directory:          /ftpmirror/pub/sword/betapackages/rawzip

CrossWire Wycliffe

The 43 modules from WBTI & BL that were formerly kept in CrossWire Beta have been moved to a separate repository. This is included in the Master Repositories List.

 Site Name:              CrossWire Wycliffe
 Site Machine Name:      ftp.crosswire.org
 Repository Directory:   /pub/sword/wyclifferaw

Note:

  1. Many of these translations are now available online at Bible Search hosted by the American Bible Society.

Experimental modules

These experimental modules are primarily intended for front-end developers. They require new features not supported by some front-end applications. This repository is not included in the Master Repositories List.

 Site Name:              CrossWire Experimental
 Site Machine Name:      ftp.crosswire.org
 Repository Directory:   /pub/sword/experimentalraw

Included in this repository are a number of empty test modules - one for each Alternate Versification.

Lockman Foundation

We have at last been granted permission to distribute these 3 modules from the Lockman Foundation:

  • New American Standard Bible (NASB)
  • Nueva Biblia de las Américas (NBLA)
  • La Biblia de las Américas (LBLA)

Additionally, a gracious gift from Lockman, they have granted permission for CrossWire to distribute all 3 of these modules unlocked, for free.

The MRL has been updated to add a repository for the Lockman Foundation modules hosted on the CrossWire server.

 Site Name:              Lockman Foundation
 Site Machine Name:      ftp.crosswire.org
 Repository Directory:   /pub/sword/lockmanraw
 Catalog Directory:      /ftpmirror/pub/sword/lockmanraw
 ZIP Directory:          /ftpmirror/pub/sword/lockmanpackages

Affiliated Repositories

Other Bible agencies

Any bona fide Bible agency may set up and maintain their own modules repository. Providing the agency adheres to orthodox Christian doctrine (i.e. not a cult!), a request for such a repository to be added to the Master Repostories List will be seriously considered by CrossWire.

NET (Bible.org)

Home of the New English Translation. This is included in the Master Repositories List.

 Site Name:              NET (Bible.org)
 Site Machine Name:      ftp.bible.org
 Repository Directory:   /sword
 Catalog Directory:      /sword/raw
 ZIP Directory:          /sword/packages/rawzip

Xiphos

A number of random creations, including a fair number of dictionary, map and image modules: Tischendorf8 Greek NT, Hodge's Systematic Theology, and others. Daily Devotionals include BibleCompanion, MCheyne, OneYearRead. This is included in the Master Repositories List.

 Site Name:              Xiphos
 Site Machine Name:      ftp.xiphos.org
 Repository Directory:   .
 Catalog Directory:      /sword
 ZIP Directory:          /sword/zip

This repository is maintained by the developer of the Xiphos Bible study app for Linux & Windows.

Institute for Bible Translation

The Institute for Bible Translation has a SWORD repository. This is included in the Master Repositories List.

 Site Name:              IBT
 Site Machine Name:      ftp.ibt.org.ru
 Repository Directory:   /pub/modsword/raw
 Catalog Directory:      /ftpmirror/pub/modsword/raw
 ZIP Directory:          /ftpmirror/pub/modsword/rawzip

The Institute for Bible Translation provides a number of Bible translations in various languages of Central Asia and the CIS. Alongside these translations are modules for English, Russian, Ukrainian and the original Bible languages (Hebrew & Greek). Further modules are in preparation. Several of the translations have linked dictionary modules.

This repository is maintained by the developer of the Holy Bible study app for Windows, Linux, and Firefox.

eBible.org

This repository maintained by Michael Paul Johnson provides access to more than 1200 Bible modules in more than 600 languages. This is included in the Master Repository List.

FTP access:

 Site Name:              eBible.org
 Site Machine Name:      ftp.ebible.org
 Repository Directory:   /pub/sword
 Catalog Directory:      /pub/sword
 ZIP Directory:          /pub/sword/zip

STEP Bible

The Tyndale House STEPBible Data Repository hosts data created for STEPBible.org originated by Tyndale House Cambridge with a CC BY 4.0 license.

One of the datasets hosted is Bible modules for OSIS Sword software Bibles in the same format as CrossWire modules which can be used in any SWORD-compatible software. Currently, this only contains a small number of modules, but is set to grow in future. In February 2021, a proper SWORD repository has been set up. This will soon be added by CrossWire to the MRL.

AndBible Extra

The AndBible Extra repository contains the free modules from the Xiphos repository. [1]

Note:

  1. The Xiphos repository was incompatible with AndBible (it's FTP only but AB is HTTPS only) so this was made to serve those modules to AndBible users.
