Readme
Unity Extensions
Unity Extensions is part of the Vanilla Unity SDK.
Unity Extensions is a collection of extension methods for all the data types and classes found in the Unity GameObject ecosystem. The purpose is to offer a number of shorthand methods for common or useful behaviour.
Some examples include:
- GameObject.GetComponentDynamic - Get a component on the GameObject itself or upwards through its parents or downwards through its children by changing the parameter.
- Transform.GetAllChildren - Returns a list of all child transforms without using GetComponentsOnChildren<Transform>
- T[].Shuffle - Shuffles the contents of an array using the Fisher-Yates algorithm.
Installation
Vanilla Plus packages are installed through Unity's Package Manager using a scoped registry. Open your Unity Project of choice and select:
> Edit menu > Project settings > Package Manager > Scoped Registries > Plus button
Then add:
name: Vanilla Plus url: https://registry.npmjs.com Scopes: vanilla.plus
Usage
public class LovingParent : MonoBehaviour
{
void Start()
{
foreach (var c in transform.GetAllChildren())
{
Debug.Log($"I have a child and their name is [{c}]");
}
}
}Contributing
Please don't. I have no idea what a pull request is and at this point I'm too afraid to ask.
If you hated this package, let me know.
