acore-spellscript-refactor 1.8.4

tool that finds the first SpellScript by searching for public SpellScriptLoader in a file and converts it to use registry macros

Spellscript Refactor Tool for AzerothCore

Python tool to convert spellscript(s) to use registry macros (see official wiki https://www.azerothcore.org/wiki/core-scripts)

The acore_spellscript_refactor tool provides modules to refactor spellscripts to use registry macros (see official wiki https://www.azerothcore.org/wiki/core-scripts).

Disclaimer: This tool is dumb. It finds the first SpellScript by searching for public SpellScriptLoader in a file and converts it. It does not add enums for magic numbers, and may remove variables; some manual work is required, but it is a good first pass

Features

• convert AuraScript
• convert SpellScript
• convert Spell- and Aurascript Pairs
• add bool Validate... if it does not exist already
• read/write to file
• create skeleton update statement spell_script_names to script_name.sql if type is _aura
• fill in spell_ids skeleton update with spell_ids from table acore_world spell_script_names
• --skip to specify line number to search for SpellScript
• --verbose/-v to output debug info
• --sql-file to write script_name updates to specific file
• discover runs repeatedly on all *cpp in directory
• spell scripts with args
• magic numbers to Enum

Usage

This covers basic usage, command options, and examples for the main and discover modules.

To create a rev_*.sql file, use create_sql.sh

./data/sql/updates/pending_db_world/create_sql.sh

In the sections below $REV_SQL refers to absolute path of this created rev_*.sql.

REV_SQL="/azerothcore-wotlk/data/sql/updates/pending_db_world/rev_1730477106741869456.sql"

note: for file arguments, use absolute paths

Examples

Using main

The main module refactors a single script file at a time or all scripts within a directory.

Refactoring a Single Script with Line Offset

To refactor a single script file and specify an offset (e.g., skip the first 950 lines):

python3 -m acore_spellscript_refactor.main "/azerothcore-wotlk/src/server/scripts/Northrend/Ulduar/Ulduar/boss_xt002.cpp" --skip 950
python3 -m acore_spellscript_refactor.main `realpath boss_xt002.cpp` --skip 950
python3 -m acore_spellscript_refactor.main `realpath boss_xt002.cpp` --skip 950 --verbose

Refactoring All Scripts in a Directory

To refactor all .cpp files in a directory, use xargs to iterate through each file:

ls *cpp | xargs -n 1 -I {} python3 -m acore_spellscript_refactor.main `realpath {}`

Command Options

1. Specify input and output files:

   • Provide an input_file and output_file to save results to a specific file.

   python3 -m acore_spellscript_refactor.main input_file output_file
   

2. Overwrite input file:

   • Use the same file for both input_file and output_file to overwrite.

   python3 -m acore_spellscript_refactor.main input_file input_file
   

3. Default single file refactor:

   • Refactor a single file without specifying an output, defaults to overwriting the input_file.

   python3 -m acore_spellscript_refactor.main input_file
   

4. Skip a specified number of lines:

   • Use --skip to ignore a set number of lines.

   python3 -m acore_spellscript_refactor.main input_file output_file --skip 1200
   

5. Use with SQL file generation:

   • Refactor with associated SQL queries stored in a specified file.

   python3 -m acore_spellscript_refactor.main input_file output_file --skip 1200 --sql_file $REV_SQL
   

6. Commit changes:

   • Add the --commit flag to save changes with an optional SQL file for database updates.

   python3 -m acore_spellscript_refactor.main input_file --commit --sql_file $REV_SQL
   

Using discover

The discover module finds .cpp files and creates commits and SQL files as necessary.

Example Usage

1. Commit all discovered files:

   • Specify a .sql file for database changes, or allow discover to auto-create one by omitting --sql_file

   python3 -m acore_spellscript_refactor.discover --commit --sql_file $REV_SQL
   

2. Run on all scripts in a directory:

   • Set the working directory to azerothcore-wotlk/src/server/scripts/***/scripts_folder and recursively discover .cpp files.

   python3 -m acore_spellscript_refactor.discover --commit --recursive --sql_file $REV_SQL
   

3. Run on all scripts:

   • Set the working directory to azerothcore-wotlk/src/server/scripts and recursively discover .cpp files.

   python3 -m acore_spellscript_refactor.discover --commit --recursive --sql_file $REV_SQL
