engine.console Functions

List of Functions:

This set of functions controls console-related parameters.

void engine.console.addCommand (string name, string description, string function)

Adds a custom console command bound to a given script function. The command can have up to 6 arguments, which will be passed to the script function.

The example shows how to add a custom console command with 2 arguments:

Source code (UnigineScript)

namespace Test {
    
    // A script function to be performed for no arguments input.
    void my_command_callback() {
        log.message("my_command callback\n");
    }

    // A script function to be performed for one argument input.
    void my_command_callback(string arg_0) {
        log.message("my_command callback arg_0 :%s\n",arg_0);
    }

    // A script function to be performed for two arguments input.
    void my_command_callback(string arg_0,string arg_1) {
        log.message("my_command callback arg_0:%s, arg_1:%s\n",arg_0,arg_1);
    }
}

/*
 */
int init() {
    engine.console.addCommand("my_command","my_command description","Test::my_command_callback");
    return 1;
}

/*
 */
int shutdown() {
    engine.console.removeCommand("my_command");
    return 1;
}

The result will be the following:

Output

// Input value: my_command 
my_command callback

// Input value: my_command 1
my_command callback arg_0 :1

// Input value: my_command 1 2
my_command callback arg_0 :1 arg_1 :1
