Storage

Saving and loading individual storages.

Saving

There are 4 things that require saving here: items, enchantments (applied to items), and currencies. You can use myStorage.CreateSavableData to get an object that contains all of this data. This method will return a InventoolSavableData struct.

InventoolSavableData mySavableData = myStorage.CreateSavableData();

Loading

To load you will need to provide your own method of loading. Use the Storage.SetLoader and provide a method that will load a InventoolSavableData object. Inventool will call this to load a storage when necessary. The method should accept a string parameter that represents the ID of the storage.

Storage.SetLoader(MyStorageLoadingMethod);

Examples

The code below is how you can save and load storage data with ESave. ESave is my own save system—it's entirely free, and it's been tested with Inventool. ESave is not a requirement; you can use the save system of your choice. However, the example below will only work with ESave.

With ESave Free

using Esper.ESave;
using Esper.Inventool;
using Esper.Inventool.DataManagement;
using Esper.Inventool.Storing;
using UnityEngine;

public class StorageSavingAndLoadingExample : MonoBehaviour
{
    private SaveFile saveFile;

    private void Start()
    {
        saveFile = GetComponent<SaveFileSetup>().saveFile;

        // Saving when the window is closed
        Storage.onStorageClosed.AddListener(SaveStorage);

        // Setting the loader—the LoadStorage method is used by Inventool to load all storages
        Storage.SetLoader(LoadStorage);
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Saves a storage.
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="storage">The storage.</param>
    private void SaveStorage(Storage storage)
    {
        saveFile.AddOrUpdateData(storage.id, storage.CreateSavableData());
        saveFile.Save();
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Loads and returns saved storage data.
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="id">The storage ID.</param>
    /// <returns>Loaded storage data.</returns>
    private InventoolSavableData LoadStorage(string id)
    {
        var storageData = saveFile.GetData<InventoolSavableData>(id);
        return storageData;
    }
}

With ESave Pro

In case you're using the pro version...

using Esper.ESave;
using Esper.Inventool.DataManagement;
using Esper.Inventool.Storing;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using UnityEngine;

public class StorageSavingAndLoadingExample : MonoBehaviour
{
    /// <summary>
    /// The save state.
    /// </summary>
    private SaveState saveState;

    private void Start()
    {
        // Initialize ESave (if not already done)
        ESave.Initialize();

        if (!ESave.HasSave(0))
        {
            // Create a save if it doesn't exist
            ESave.CreateSave(0).OnComplete(saveState =>
            {
                // Load the save
                ESave.Load(0).OnComplete(saveState =>
                {
                    this.saveState = saveState;
                    SetSaveLoadMethod();
                });
            });
        }
        else
        {
            // Load the save if it exists
            ESave.Load(0).OnComplete(saveState =>
            {
                this.saveState = saveState;
                SetSaveLoadMethod();
            });
        }
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Sets the necessary saving and loading methods.
    /// </summary>
    private void SetSaveLoadMethod()
    {
        // Saving when the window is closed
        Storage.onStorageClosed.AddListener(SaveStorage);

        // Setting the loader—the LoadStorage method is used by Inventool to load all storages
        Storage.SetLoaderAsync(LoadStorage);
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Saves a storage.
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="storage">The storage.</param>
    private void SaveStorage(Storage storage)
    {
        saveState.AddData(storage.id, storage.CreateSavableData()).OnComplete(success =>
        {
            ESave.Save(saveState);
        });
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Loads and returns saved storage data.
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="id">The storage ID.</param>
    /// <returns>Loaded storage data.</returns>
    private async Task<InventoolSavableData> LoadStorage(string id)
    {
        return await saveState.GetData<InventoolSavableData>(id).task;
    }
}
