# Batch processor examples
|
|
|
|
Contibution by Griatch, 2012
|
|
|
|
Simple examples for the batch-processor. The batch processor is used for generating
|
|
in-game content from one or more static files. Files can be stored with version
|
|
control and then 'applied' to the game to create content.
|
|
|
|
There are two batch processor types:
|
|
|
|
- Batch-cmd processor: A list of `#`-separated Evennia commands being executed
|
|
in sequence, such as `create`, `dig`, `north` etc. When running a script
|
|
of this type (filename ending with `.ev`), the caller of the script will be
|
|
the one performing the script's actions.
|
|
- Batch-code processor: A full Python script (filename ending with `.py` that
|
|
executes Evennia api calls to build, such as `evennia.create_object` or
|
|
`evennia.search_object` etc. It can be divided up into comment-separated
|
|
chunks so one can execute only parts of the script at a time (in this way it's
|
|
a little different than a normal Python file).
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
To test the two example batch files, you need `Developer` or `superuser`
|
|
permissions, be logged into the game and run of
|
|
|
|
> batchcommand/interactive tutorials.batchprocessor.example_batch_cmds
|
|
> batchcode/interactive tutorials.batchprocessor.example_batch_code
|
|
|
|
The `/interactive` drops you in interactive mode so you can follow along what
|
|
the scripts do. Skip it to build it all at once.
|
|
|
|
Both commands produce the same results - they create a red-button object,
|
|
a table and a chair. If you run either with the `/debug` switch, the objects will
|
|
be deleted afterwards (for quick tests of syntax that you don't want to spam new
|
|
objects, for example).
