Overview

Lib_Config (part of Library) is a Interface to give AddOns the possibility to let users change settings in the game. It's really easy to implement the data and usually only needs a few lines of code. AddOns can also register multiple entries if they need some more options.


Methods

_registerSet

_registerSet: function( obj )

Register a data set on .startUpComplete or later.

Parameters:

obj
Object. See Full Dataset for its members.

Returns:

n
Number. Errorcode. If OK 0 (zero).


_unregisterSet

_unregisterSet: function( obj )

Unregister a data set.

Parameters:

obj
Object. See Full Dataset for its members.

Returns:

n
Number. Errorcode. If OK 0 (zero).


Examples

A very simple one with 1 boolean property to stare at: 

 this.$log = false;
 this.$myOXPC = {Name:this.name, Display:"Example A", Alive:"$myOXPC",
    Bool:{
      B0:{Name:"$log", Def:false, Desc:"Blurp."},
      Info:"Hmmm."
    }
 };
 worldScripts.Lib_Config._registerSet(this.$myOXPC);

Pathes can be used as well: 

 this.$path = {
   dog: {dog:false},
   notify: function(boo){
     log("","Path Notify for "+boo);
   }
 };
 this.$myOXPC = {Name:this.name, Display:"Path", Alive:"$myOXPC", Notify:"$path.notify",
   Bool:{
     B0:{Name:"$path.dog.dog", Def:false, Desc:"Blurp.", Notify:"$path.notify"},
     Info:"OK", Notify:"$path.notify"
   }
 };
 worldScripts.Lib_Config._registerSet(this.$myOXPC);

Reset option

Lib_Configs "Reset to defaults" option handles the notifications as follows:

  • If a global .Notify is declared it ignores group or property .Notify
  • If no global .Notify and a group .Notify is declared it ignores property .Notify
