Event at Asset Creation

Hi everyone.

My question is simple : does a callback in UnityEditorInternal (I suppose) called when an asset is created exists ?

Thanks for any answer

EDIT : Another question, is there a paradise where the UnityEditorInternal or UnityEngineInternal assemblies are documented ?

 

What's in the UnityEditor section of the manual is what you get. It takes some digging and google-fu, but you can find what you're looking for there.

Here's the editor class that handles assets: https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/AssetPostprocessor.html
Here's an example function you want to override for importing textures: https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/AssetPostprocessor.OnPostprocessTexture.html

Be careful! if you have errors in import code, your assets will not import correctly! If this happens, fix/remove your import code then reimport the asset.

 

Thanks a lot.

For my tool, I use UnityEditor.AssetModificationProcessor, not AssetProcessor. By using OnWillCreateAsset(), I can know when an asset is imported in the project, even if it's a script

 

In AssetPostProcessor, you have this method: https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/AssetPostprocessor.OnPostprocessAllAssets.html

It is called after importing any number of assets (of any particular type, not only textures).
