Given a Dialogue Script for SDT (NSFW! Google at own risk), parse said dialogue script for validation with checkers. A dialogue script consists of a set of lines.
There's a special line, initial_settings
, formatted like such:
initial_settings:{"variable1":numericvalue,"variable2":"stringvalue"}
The rest of the lines follow this format:
linename:"content[TRIGGER]*insertion*" {"attribute":"value","complexattribute":{"variable":numericvalue,"variable2":"stringvalue"}}
Class variables:
//The lines of the dialogue, stored in order of appearance.
private var lines:Array;
//A dictionary of the lines. Structured like so:
//Indexed by linename. Contents are an array of indexes for the lines array.
private var linesDictionary:Array;
//The entire dialogue in string format, if available.
private var dialogue:String;
//String-indexed.
private var variables:Array;
Parsing a dialogue...
public function parseDialogueFromString(dialogueText:String):void {
var a:Array = dialogueText.split("\r"); //Maybe I should split by \r\n first, then by \n\r, then by \r, then by \n?
if (a.length == 1) {
a = dialogueText.split("\n");
}
//Parse each line individually...
for (var i:uint = 0, isize:uint = a.length; i < isize; i++) {
var line:Line = parseLine(a[i], i);
//Then place them in the dictionary and main array.
if (line != null) {
if (linesDictionary[line.getLineName()] == null) {
linesDictionary[line.getLineName()] = new Array();
}
linesDictionary[line.getLineName()].push(lines.push(line) - 1);
}
}
}
