RPG Maker VX Ace
Script Loader
Sometimes you want to load in some external scripts, for example, if you want to add DLC. It already is hard enough to get a script to pack, anyway. This script will take care of any script loading, and it allows for scripts to be packed as .rvdata2 files. Of course, you could be a Scrooge and keep your script releases relatively close sourced that way to those who don't know much scripting, but its main purpose is still to add new functionality post-release.

This script consists of two parts, the script loading part and the script packing part. Loading goes automatically, so you won't have to run any method to do that, script packing uses a method.
CXJ::SCRIPT_LOADER.pack_script_folder(folder[, recursive[, destination]])
Folder refers to the folder you want to pack. If recursive isn't specified, it is assumed to be set to true, and will therefore recursively search through the folder and its subfolder. If destination isn't specified, it will add the first extension specified at CXJ::SCRIPT_LOADER::PACKED_SUFFIXES
at the end of the folder name, otherwise it will use the specified file.
Note that folder should have no lead or trailing slash.
If you, for some reason, need to load a specific file directly, you can use the following method:
CXJ::SCRIPT_LOADER.load_script(filename[, mode])
The mode specifies how the file should be treated.
0: Treat as Ruby script file
1: Treat as packed script archive
2: Auto-detect, based on the specified extensions (default)
When dealing with packed scripts, use evaluate_packed_scripts to process the scripts.

Kertopermono # * G.A.M. Kertopermono # * GARYCXJK # # Personally, when used in commercial games, I prefer you would use the second # option. Not only will it actually give me more name recognition in real # life, which also works well for my portfolio, it will also look more # professional. Also, do note that I actually care about capitalization if you # decide to use my username, meaning, capital C, capital X, capital J, lower # case k. Yes, it might seem stupid, but it's one thing I absolutely care # about. # # Finally, if you want my endorsement for your product, if it's good enough # and I have the game in my posession, I might endorse it. Do note that if you # give me the game for free, it will not affect my opinion of the game. It # would be nice, but if I really did care for the game I'd actually purchase # it. Remember, the best way to get any satisfaction is if you get people to # purchase the game, so in a way, I prefer it if you don't actually give me # a free copy. # # This script was originally hosted on: # http://area91.multiverseworks.com # #============================================================================== # # The code below defines the settings of this script, and are there to be # modified. # #============================================================================== module CXJ module SCRIPT_LOADER #------------------------------------------------------------------------ # You can specify suffixes for script files. #------------------------------------------------------------------------ RUBY_SUFFIXES = [ "rb", "txt", ] #------------------------------------------------------------------------ # You can specify suffixes for packed script archives. #------------------------------------------------------------------------ PACKED_SUFFIXES = [ "rvdata2", "dat", ] #------------------------------------------------------------------------ # This defines the folders to search through. # "Folder" - The folder to search through # Don't add a trailing or lead slash # Recursive? - Whether it should search through its subfolders as well # Mode - The kind of files it should load # 0: Ruby scripts only # 1: Packed scripts only # 2: Both #------------------------------------------------------------------------ LOCATIONS = [ # ["Folder", Recursive?, Mode], ["Script", true, 2], ] end end #============================================================================== # # The code below should not be altered unless you know what you're doing. # #============================================================================== #---------------------------------------------------------------------------- # Evaluate Scipt list #---------------------------------------------------------------------------- def evaluate_packed_scripts Kernel.eval(CXJ::SCRIPT_LOADER.shift_packed_script_queue, Kernel.binding) while packed_script_queue_size > 0 end module CXJ module SCRIPT_LOADER @external_script = [] #------------------------------------------------------------------------ # Load Script # mode: The way the file should be treated. # 0: Treat as Ruby script file # 1: Treat as packed script archive # 2: Auto-detect, based on the specified extensions (default) #------------------------------------------------------------------------ def self.load_script(filename, mode = 2) ext = File.extname(filename) ext = ext[1,ext.size-1] if (CXJ::SCRIPT_LOADER::PACKED_SUFFIXES).include?(ext) || mode == 1 File.open(filename, "rb") do |file| Marshal.load(file).each do |script| @external_script.push(script) end end elsif (CXJ::SCRIPT_LOADER::RUBY_SUFFIXES).include?(ext) || mode == 0 load filename end evaluate_packed_scripts end #------------------------------------------------------------------------ # Pack Script Folder # folder : Name of folder without trailing or lead slash # recursive : Whether or not to iterate over its subfolders as well # destination : The destination file name #------------------------------------------------------------------------ def self.pack_script_folder(folder, recursive = true, destination = folder + ".rvdata2") script_list = [] ruby_files = "*.rb" ruby_files = File.join("**", ruby_files) if recursive Dir[File.join(folder, ruby_files)].each do |filename| File.open(filename, "rb") do |file| script_list.push(file.read) end end File.open(destination, "wb") do |file| Marshal.dump(script_list, file) end end #------------------------------------------------------------------------ # Removes First Entry From Script List And Returns #------------------------------------------------------------------------ def self.shift_packed_script_queue @external_script.shift end #------------------------------------------------------------------------ # Get Size Of Script List #------------------------------------------------------------------------ def self.packed_script_queue_size @external_script.size end #------------------------------------------------------------------------ # Automatically run script that loads scripts based on location settings. #------------------------------------------------------------------------ LOCATIONS.each do |location| ruby_ext = '' pack_ext = '' CXJ::SCRIPT_LOADER::RUBY_SUFFIXES.each do |ext| ruby_ext+= ',' if !ruby_ext.empty? ruby_ext+= ext end CXJ::SCRIPT_LOADER::PACKED_SUFFIXES.each do |ext| pack_ext+= ',' if !pack_ext.empty? pack_ext+= ext end folder = location[0] recursive = location[1] mode = location[2] case(mode) when 0 ruby_files = "*.{" + ruby_ext + "}" when 1 ruby_files = "*.{" + pack_ext + "}" else ruby_files = "*.{" + ruby_ext + "," + pack_ext + "}" end ruby_files = File.join("**", ruby_files) if recursive Dir[File.join(folder, ruby_files)].each do |filename| load_script(filename) end end end end
