ozu_File – Create and manipulate files from within the game itself!

ozu_File 1.2
by ozubon

Introduction
Using Node.js' file system module can be a hassle. Getting it to work both in playtest and after deployment seems to be something people are having trouble it. This aims to give some easy to use functions as tools for manipulating the game folder's files using Node.js – both for people who've tried implementing the .fs module and failed and for anyone with basic script call knowledge who wants to play with files.

Does not work on mobile!

Features
This plugin allows you to do things with your game files and folders from within the game itself.

• file.exist will check whether a file exists or not
  
• file.write will write or overwrite a file with the text you enter
  
• file.append will add text to an already existing file
  
• file.read will read a file and output its contents as text
  
• file.rename will rename a file to the filename you enter
  
• file.erase will permanently delete a file
  

How to use
Spoiler: file.exist

file.exist
Checks if a file in your game folder exists or not.
Intended for the conditional branch script box.
                Code:       

1. file.exist("path", "file.type")

复制代码

"" for path means the main game folder, "" for file checks if folder exists

These all return TRUE:
                Code:       

1. file.exist("", "index.html")
3. file.exist("data", "")
5. file.exist("img/system", "Window.png")

复制代码

This returns FALSE unless it exists:
                Code:       

1. file.exist("asdf/gh", "jkl.txt")

复制代码

Screenshot example:

Spoiler: file.write

file.write
Writes a new file with the desired data.
Intended for script calls.
                Code:       

1. file.write("path", "file.type", "stuff")

复制代码

"" for path means the main game folder, the rest is required.

Some examples:
                Code:       

1. file.write("", "tanoshindekudasai.txt", "Arigato gozaimasu")

复制代码

                Code:       

1. file.write("data", "test.json", "Can it write to JSON?")

复制代码

Screenshot example:

Spoiler: file.append

file.append
Same as file.write but writes to the end of an existing file instead of overwriting it.
Intended for script calls.
                Code:       

1. file.append("path", "file.type", "new stuff")

复制代码

"" for path means the main game folder, the rest is required.

Some examples:
                Code:       

1. file.append("", "tanoshindekudasai.txt", "!!!")

复制代码

                Code:       

1. file.append("data", "test.json", " Yes.")

复制代码

Screenshot example:

Spoiler: file.read

file.read
Reads a file and outputs a string of what's in it.
Intended for conditional branches and setting variables.
                Code:       

1. file.read("path", "file.type")

复制代码

"" for path means the main game folder, the rest is required.

This will return TRUE in a conditional branch (if tanoshindekudasai.txt is exactly "Arigato gozaimasu!!!"):
                Code:       

1. file.read("", "tanoshindekudasai.txt") === "Arigato gozaimasu!!!"

复制代码

Using Control Variables, set a variable to
                Code:       

1. file.read("", "tanoshindekudasai.txt")

复制代码

and the variable will be set to "Arigato gozaimasu!!!" or whatever tanoshindekudasai.txt contains.


Screenshot example:

Spoiler: file.rename

file.rename
Renames a file, careful not to rename important files.
Intended for script calls.
                Code:       

1. file.rename("path", "file.type" "new name.type")

复制代码

"" for path means the main game folder, the rest is required.

Some examples:
                Code:       

1. file.rename("", "tanoshindekudasai.txt", "ieie.txt")

复制代码

                Code:       

1. file.rename("data", "test.json", "johnromero.json")

复制代码

Screenshot example:

Spoiler: file.erase

file.erase
Do not use this one unless you know what you're doing!
Permanently deletes a file, be VERY careful not to erase important files.
Intended for script calls.
                Code:       

1. file.erase("path", "file.type")

复制代码

"" for path means the main game folder, the rest is required.

Some examples:
                Code:       

1. file.erase("", "ieie.txt")

复制代码

                Code:       

1. file.erase("data", "johnromero.json")

复制代码
