The Addoninfo.txt handles metadata for all addons in the Left 4 Dead series.
Most info this file could contain is taken directly from the workshop page, if the addon was downloaded from the workshop. If the addon is installed locally (in the addons folder, as opposed to the addons/workshop folder) the addoninfo.txt will continue doing all of the work.

Base
This is the most basic addoninfo.txt you need. All other keys are optional.
"AddonInfo" { addonSteamAppID "550" addonauthor " " addonversion "1" addontitle " " addonDescription " " }
Keys
These are all available keys for the addoninfo.
Deadline 1 & 2
This is the addoninfo metadata file included with the sample Deadline campaign. Feel free to use this as a template for the metadata for your own custom addons.
The full add-on and source files can be downloaded off a website hosted by Steam:
