Detailed Description

TranslationAssetHandler will process JSON based files that provide a mapping from string, string the key will be generated using the JSON file structure, but does have some requirements.

Requirements:

  • Must have a top level array called "entries"
  • Must provide a "base" element for any entry added

Example:

{ "entries": [ { "base": "Globals", "details": { "name": "My Name", "tooltip": "My Tooltip" } ] }

The example JSON will produce the following database:

[Globals.details.name, "My Name"] [Globals.details.tooltip", "My Tooltip"] Arrays Arrays are supported and will contain an index value encoded into the key, for an array called "somearray" these may look like this: "somearray": [ { "name": "First one" }, { "name": "Second one" } ] Globals.details.somearray.0.name Globals.details.somearray.1.name There is one important aspect however, if an element in an array has a "base" value, the value of this key will replace the index. This is useful when the index and/or ordering of an entry is not relevant or may change. "somearray": [ { "name": "First one" "base": "a_key" }, { "name": "Second one", "base": "b_key" } ] Globals.details.somearray.0.base == "a_key" Globals.details.somearray.0.name == "First one" Globals.details.somearray.1.base == "b_key" Globals.details.somearray.1.name == "Second one"
