Bootstrapper

Bootstrapper

Bind fields and properties of Monobehaviours objects to a JSON file. Save, load, make changes to them at runtime.

Install

1. Install dependencies: com.yasirkula.runtimeinspector/ and jillejr.newtonsoft.json-for-unity.converters/
2. In the Unity editor, Window->Package Manager add package from git url: https://github.com/seeyam-q/YouNeiTiToolbox.git#upm-bootstrapper

Usage

1. Drag Bootstrap prefab into the main scene.
2. In your MonoBehaviour code, add System.Runtime.Serialization namespace, then add [DataMember(Name = "")] to any serialized properties that you want to be adjusted at runtime.
3. Add the GameObject with the above MonoBehaviour component to the SettingPopulateList of BootstrapDictionary on the Bootstrap prefab.
4. Enter the play mode and hit Generate Bootstrap File. A bootstrapSettings.json will be created at either StreamingAsset or Persistent Data Path based on your choice. Stop the play mode.
5. You are all set. Enter the play mode again. Hit G key to toggle the runtime inspector to change and save settings on the fly. You can use runtimeEditorKeyStroke property to change the key binding for the bootstrap inspector.

Tips

1. Bootstrap works better with reference types (class) than value types (struct). You can always create a [Serializable] class container to group similar settings together (regardless of reference types or value types) for better organizations.
