Loading array from .json

.json values:

Code (CSharp):

2.     "Presets":

4.        "facepresets":["FacePreset1", "FacePreset2", "FacePreset3"]
5.     },
6.

31.  

some C# code:

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2.     [System.Serializable]
3.     public class Token
4.     {
5.         public FacePreset facepresets;
6.     }
7.  
8.     [System.Serializable]
9.     public class FacePreset
10.     {
11.         public Vector2 Overall_Face_Breadth;
12.         public Vector2 Upper_face_depth;
13.         public Vector2 Face_height;
14.         public Vector2 Lower_face_depth;
15.         public Vector2 Lower_face_width;
16.     }  
17.    
18.     public Vector2 currentkey;
19.  
20.     void RandomiseCharFace()
21.     {
22.         if (female == null) return;
23.        var PATH_TO_JSON = Path.Combine(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory(), "\\Randomizer.json");
24.         var token = JsonUtility.FromJson<Token>(System.IO.File.ReadAllText(PATH_TO_JSON));
25.        
26.        num1 = facepresets[UnityEngine.Random.Range(0, facepresets.Length)];
27.        
28.         int slider = 0;
29.         //RandomFacePreset = UnityEngine.Random.Range(currentkey.x, currentkey.y);
30.         string RandomFacePreset = "FacePreset1";
31.  
32.         foreach (PropertyInfo Property in token.facepresets.GetType().GetProperties())
33.         {
34.             Vector2 currentkey = (Vector2)Property.GetValue(token.facepresets);
35.             female.customInfo.shapeValueBody[slider] = UnityEngine.Random.Range(currentkey.x, currentkey.y);
36.             slider++;
37.         }
38.    }
39.  

The code above seems to be enough to get a predefined preset like FacePreset1.

What i'm trying to do: Pick a item randomly from facepresets in the .json and then apply it to
Vector2 currentkey = (Vector2)Property.GetValue(token.random_facepresets_here);

e.g. try #1 gets FacePreset3. It gets the vector values from "FacePreset3" in the .json and apply them one by one inside the foreach loop

This is to make possible for users to create their own presets without needing to compile the source code.

 

Instead of the array of the names and then the names tied to each preset. Instead just have an array of presets:

JSON:

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. {
3.     "Presets":[{
4.        "Name":"FacePreset1",
5.        "Overall_Face_Breadth": {"x":0.1, "y":0.2},
6.        "Upper_face_depth": {"x":0.1, "y":0.2},
7.        "Face_height": {"x":0.1, "y":0.2},
8.        "Lower_face_depth": {"x":0.1, "y":0.2},
9.        "Lower_face_width": {"x":0.1, "y":0.2},
10.     },
11.     {
12.        "Name":"FacePreset2",
13.        "Overall_Face_Breadth": {"x":0.2, "y":0.3},
14.        "Upper_face_depth": {"x":0.2, "y":0.3},
15.        "Face_height": {"x":0.2, "y":0.3},
16.        "Lower_face_depth": {"x":0.2, "y":0.3},
17.        "Lower_face_width": {"x":0.2, "y":0.3},
18.     },
19.     {
20.        "Name":"FacePreset3",
21.        "Overall_Face_Breadth": {"x":0.3, "y":0.4},
22.        "Upper_face_depth": {"x":0.3, "y":0.4},
23.        "Face_height": {"x":0.3, "y":0.4},
24.        "Lower_face_depth": {"x":0.3, "y":0.4},
25.        "Lower_face_width": {"x":0.3, "y":0.4},
26.     }]
27. }
28.  

Contracts:

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. [System.Serializable]
3. public class Token
4. {
5.     public FacePreset[] Presets;
6. }
7.  
8. [System.Serializable]
9. public class FacePreset
10. {
11.     public string Name;
12.     public Vector2 Overall_Face_Breadth;
13.     public Vector2 Upper_face_depth;
14.     public Vector2 Face_height;
15.     public Vector2 Lower_face_depth;
16.     public Vector2 Lower_face_width;
17. }
18.  

Then pick a random preset:

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. void RandomiseCharFace()
3. {
4.     if (female == null) return;
5.     var PATH_TO_JSON = Path.Combine(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory(), @"\Randomizer.json");
6.     var token = JsonUtility.FromJson<Token>(System.IO.File.ReadAllText(PATH_TO_JSON));
7.  
8.     var preset = = token.Presets[UnityEngine.Random.Range(0, token.Presets.Length)];
9.    
10.     //not sure what the shape of this 'female' is... so I'm just going to read out values
11.     var v1 = preset.Overall_Face_Breadth;
12.     var v2 = preset.Upper_face_depth;
13.     var v3 = preset.Face_height;
14.     //so on, so forth
15. }
16.  

 

Thank you! But isn't there a way to automate this inside a foreach loop? Otherwise i would need to do this:

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. void RandomiseCharFace()
3. {
4.     if (female == null) return;
5.     var PATH_TO_JSON = Path.Combine(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory(), @"\Randomizer.json");
6.     var token = JsonUtility.FromJson<Token>(System.IO.File.ReadAllText(PATH_TO_JSON));
7.  
8.     var preset = token.Presets[UnityEngine.Random.Range(0, token.Presets.Length)];
9.     var v1 = preset.Overall_Face_Breadth;
10.     var v2 = preset.Upper_face_depth;
11.     var v3 = preset.Face_height;
12.     var v4 = preset.Lower_face_depth;
13.     var v5 = preset.Lower_face_width;
14.     female.customInfo.shapeValueBody[0] = UnityEngine.Random.Range(v1.x, v1.y);
15.     female.customInfo.shapeValueBody[1] = UnityEngine.Random.Range(v2.x, v2.y);
16.     female.customInfo.shapeValueBody[2] = UnityEngine.Random.Range(v3.x, v3.y);
17.     female.customInfo.shapeValueBody[3] = UnityEngine.Random.Range(v4.x, v4.y);
18.     female.customInfo.shapeValueBody[4] = UnityEngine.Random.Range(v5.x, v5.y);
19. }
20.  

female.customInfo.shapeValueBody[x] is the slider value. 0 if for Overall_Face_Breadth, 1 is for Upper_face_depth, etc. This is why a automization makes more sense to me.

And wouldn't using var preset pick a random preset for each value?
e.g.
var v1 = preset.Overall_Face_Breadth;
gets facepreset2
and then
var v2 = preset.Upper_face_depth;
gets facepreset1
???
