Setting up console to use PythonInterpreter
Setting up console to use ManualInterpreter
Setting up console to use RoslynInterpreter
Install the console assembly through NuGet:. The console itself is a typical DrawableGameComponent. The following steps will go through setting it up in a game. This has setup the console shell. For the console to actually do anything useful on user input, an interpreter must be configured (see below). Sometimes it is desirable to prevent other game systems from accepting input while the console window is open. For this, it is required to know if the console is currently open (accepting input) or closed. This can be checked by the console.IsAcceptingInput property.
In the Game constructor, create the console and add it to the components collection (console itself should be stored in a variable since it must be initialized and manually opened/closed later):
The console must be opened for it to accept user input. This is usually done in the update method by checking for a key press (the tilde key, for example):
Python interpreter can be used to interpret user input as Python code. It is extremely useful to, for example, manipulate game objects at runtime.
Install the interpreter assembly through NuGet (this will also bring in the console if it hasn't been installed already):. The object's public members can now be accessed from the console using the passed variable's name (press ctrl + space [by default] to autocomplete input to known variables/types/members).
Create the interpreter and set it as the interpreter for the console:
To be able to modify game objects through the console, the objects must be added as variables to the IronPython engine (this creates the connection between the CLR and Python object):
Manual interpreter can be used to define commands and their corresponding actions for the console manually. Useful to execute some behavior on command or provide players means to input cheat codes, for example.
Install the interpreter assembly through NuGet (this will also bring in the console if it hasn't been installed already):. A command is essentially a delegate that is invoked when user inputs the name of the command. The delegate provides an array of arguments separated by spaces (similar to arguments in a Windows console application) and optionally can return a string value that is output to the console. where action is of type Action<string[]> or Func<string[], string>. Provides autocompletion for registered command names (ctrl + space by default).
Create the interpreter and set it as the interpreter for the console:
To register a command:
Roslyn interpreter can be used to interpret user input as C# code using the Roslyn scripting API. It is useful to, for example, manipulate game objects at runtime.
Install the interpreter assembly through NuGet (this will also bring in the console if it hasn't been installed already):. The object's public members can now be accessed from the console using the passed variable's name. Due to an issue at Roslyn side, global variables must be accessed through a 'globals' wrapper object: globals.myVariable. RoslynInterpreter does not provide any autocompletion features.
Create the interpreter and set it as the interpreter for the console:
To be able to modify game objects through the console, the objects must be added as variables to the C# scripting context:
