|
||
|
|
<p>Ren'Py uses a text editor to allow the user to edit game scripts from the
|
||
|
|
launcher, and to report errors to the user. By default, Ren'Py uses jEdit
|
||
|
|
as the text editor when launched from the launcher and the system default
|
||
|
|
editor otherwise. This can be customized by the user as necessary.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>The editor is customized by creating an Editor class in a .edit.py file. This
|
||
|
|
class contains methods that are called to manage text editing.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>When run directly, Ren'Py first looks at the RENPY_EDIT_PY environment
|
||
|
|
variable to find an .edit.py file to use. If it can find one, it uses the
|
||
|
|
Editor class defined in that file. If not, it uses a built-in editor class
|
||
|
|
that launches the editor in a system-specific manner.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>When the Ren'Py Launcher is run, it scans subdirectories of the projects
|
||
|
|
directory and Ren'Py directory to find files of the form <cite>name</cite>.edit.py. (For
|
||
|
|
example, it would find launcher/jEdit.edit.py and myeditor/MyEditor.edit.py.)
|
||
|
|
The latest editor with a given <cite>name</cite> is presented to the creator as part of
|
||
|
|
the launcher options. The launcher also sets RENPY_EDIT_PY to the selected
|
||
|
|
file, so that games launched from the launcher will use the selected editor.</p>
|
||
|
|
<div class="section" id="writing-an-edit-py-file">

|
<h2>Writing an .edit.py File<a class="headerlink" href="#writing-an-edit-py-file" title="Permalink to this headline"> link</a></h2>
|
||
|
|
<p>An edit.py file is a Python (not Ren'Py) file that must define a single
|
||
|
|
class, named Editor. Ren'Py will call methods on this class to cause
|
||
|
|
editing to occur.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Use of the editor is done as part of an editor transaction, which groups
|
||
|
|
related operations together. For example, if an editor transaction asks
|
||
|
|
for a new window, all of the files in that transaction should be opened
|
||
|
|
in the same new window. An editor transaction starts with a call to the
|
||
|
|
begin method, may contain one or more calls to operation methods, and ends
|
||
|
|
with a call to the end method.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>The edit.py file should import renpy.editor, and the Editor class should
|
||
|
|
inherit from renpy.editor.Editor. As additional keyword arguments may be
|
||
|
|
added to methods, each method you define should ignore unknown keyword
|
||
|
|
arguments. Since you're expected to define your own
|
||
|
|
Editor subclass, we present the methods with the <cite>self</cite> parameter.</p>
