EditorExportPlatform

Inherits: RefCounted < Object

Inherited By: EditorExportPlatformAndroid, EditorExportPlatformExtension, EditorExportPlatformIOS, EditorExportPlatformMacOS, EditorExportPlatformPC, EditorExportPlatformWeb

Identifies a supported export platform, and internally provides the functionality of exporting to that platform.

Description

Base resource that provides the functionality of exporting a release build of a project to a platform, from the editor. Stores platform-specific metadata such as the name and supported features of the platform, and performs the exporting of projects, PCK files, and ZIP files. Uses an export template for the platform provided at the time of project exporting.

Used in scripting by EditorExportPlugin to configure platform-specific customization of scenes and resources. See EditorExportPlugin._begin_customize_scenes and EditorExportPlugin._begin_customize_resources for more details.

Enumerations

enum ExportMessageType: 🔗

ExportMessageType EXPORT_MESSAGE_NONE = 0

Invalid message type used as the default value when no type is specified.

ExportMessageType EXPORT_MESSAGE_INFO = 1

Message type for informational messages that have no effect on the export.

ExportMessageType EXPORT_MESSAGE_WARNING = 2

Message type for warning messages that should be addressed but still allow to complete the export.

ExportMessageType EXPORT_MESSAGE_ERROR = 3

Message type for error messages that must be addressed and fail the export.


flags DebugFlags: 🔗

DebugFlags DEBUG_FLAG_DUMB_CLIENT = 1

Flag is set if remotely debugged project is expected to use remote file system. If set, gen_export_flags will add --remove-fs and --remote-fs-password (if password is set in the editor settings) command line arguments to the list.

DebugFlags DEBUG_FLAG_REMOTE_DEBUG = 2

Flag is set if remote debug is enabled. If set, gen_export_flags will add --remote-debug and --breakpoints (if breakpoints are selected in the script editor or added by the plugin) command line arguments to the list.

DebugFlags DEBUG_FLAG_REMOTE_DEBUG_LOCALHOST = 4

Flag is set if remotely debugged project is running on the localhost. If set, gen_export_flags will use localhost instead of EditorSettings.network/debug/remote_host as remote debugger host.

DebugFlags DEBUG_FLAG_VIEW_COLLISIONS = 8

Flag is set if "Visible Collision Shapes" remote debug option is enabled. If set, gen_export_flags will add --debug-collisions command line arguments to the list.

DebugFlags DEBUG_FLAG_VIEW_NAVIGATION = 16

Flag is set if Visible Navigation" remote debug option is enabled. If set, gen_export_flags will add --debug-navigation command line arguments to the list.


Method Descriptions

void add_message(type: ExportMessageType, category: String, message: String) 🔗

Adds a message to the export log that will be displayed when exporting ends.


void clear_messages() 🔗

Clears the export log.


EditorExportPreset create_preset() 🔗

Create a new preset for this platform.


Error export_pack(preset: EditorExportPreset, debug: bool, path: String, flags: BitField[DebugFlags] = 0) 🔗

Creates a PCK archive at path for the specified preset.


Error export_pack_patch(preset: EditorExportPreset, debug: bool, path: String, patches: PackedStringArray = PackedStringArray(), flags: BitField[DebugFlags] = 0) 🔗

Creates a patch PCK archive at path for the specified preset, containing only the files that have changed since the last patch.

Note: patches is an optional override of the set of patches defined in the export preset. When empty the patches defined in the export preset will be used instead.


Error export_project(preset: EditorExportPreset, debug: bool, path: String, flags: BitField[DebugFlags] = 0) 🔗

Creates a full project at path for the specified preset.


Error export_project_files(preset: EditorExportPreset, debug: bool, save_cb: Callable, shared_cb: Callable = Callable()) 🔗

Exports project files for the specified preset. This method can be used to implement custom export format, other than PCK and ZIP. One of the callbacks is called for each exported file.

save_cb is called for all exported files and have the following arguments: file_path: String, file_data: PackedByteArray, file_index: int, file_count: int, encryption_include_filters: PackedStringArray, encryption_exclude_filters: PackedStringArray, encryption_key: PackedByteArray.

shared_cb is called for exported native shared/static libraries and have the following arguments: file_path: String, tags: PackedStringArray, target_folder: String.

Note: file_index and file_count are intended for progress tracking only and aren't necesserely unique and precise.


Error export_zip(preset: EditorExportPreset, debug: bool, path: String, flags: BitField[DebugFlags] = 0) 🔗

Create a ZIP archive at path for the specified preset.


Error export_zip_patch(preset: EditorExportPreset, debug: bool, path: String, patches: PackedStringArray = PackedStringArray(), flags: BitField[DebugFlags] = 0) 🔗

Create a patch ZIP archive at path for the specified preset, containing only the files that have changed since the last patch.

Note: patches is an optional override of the set of patches defined in the export preset. When empty the patches defined in the export preset will be used instead.


Dictionary find_export_template(template_file_name: String) const 🔗

PackedStringArray gen_export_flags(flags: BitField[DebugFlags]) 🔗

Generates array of command line arguments for the default export templates for the debug flags and editor settings.

String get_message_text(index: int) const 🔗

Returns message text, for the message with index.


ExportMessageType get_message_type(index: int) const 🔗

Returns message type, for the message with index.


String get_os_name() const 🔗

Returns the name of the export operating system handled by this EditorExportPlatform class, as a friendly string. Possible return values are Windows, Linux, macOS, Android, iOS, and Web.


ExportMessageType get_worst_message_type() const 🔗
