PackedByteArray

A packed array of bytes.

描述

An array specifically designed to hold bytes. Packs data tightly, so it saves memory for large array sizes.

PackedByteArray also provides methods to encode/decode various types to/from bytes. The way values are encoded is an implementation detail and shouldn't be relied upon when interacting with external apps.

Note: Packed arrays are always passed by reference. To get a copy of an array that can be modified independently of the original array, use duplicate. This is not the case for built-in properties and methods. The returned packed array of these are a copies, and changing it will not affect the original value. To update a built-in property you need to modify the returned array, and then assign it to the property again.

运算符

构造函数说明

PackedByteArray PackedByteArray ( )

Constructs an empty PackedByteArray.

PackedByteArray PackedByteArray ( from: PackedByteArray )

Constructs a PackedByteArray as a copy of the given PackedByteArray.

PackedByteArray PackedByteArray ( from: Array )

Constructs a new PackedByteArray. Optionally, you can pass in a generic Array that will be converted.

方法说明

bool append ( value: int )

Appends an element at the end of the array (alias of push_back).

void append_array ( array: PackedByteArray )

Appends a PackedByteArray at the end of this array.

int bsearch ( value: int, before: bool = true )

Finds the index of an existing value (or the insertion index that maintains sorting order, if the value is not yet present in the array) using binary search. Optionally, a before specifier can be passed. If false, the returned index comes after all existing entries of the value in the array.

Note: Calling bsearch on an unsorted array results in unexpected behavior.

void clear ( )

Clears the array. This is equivalent to using resize with a size of 0.

PackedByteArray compress ( compression_mode: int = 0 ) const¹

Returns a new PackedByteArray with the data compressed. Set the compression mode using one of CompressionMode's constants.

int count ( value: int ) const¹

Returns the number of times an element is in the array.

float decode_double ( byte_offset: int ) const¹

Decodes a 64-bit floating-point number from the bytes starting at byte_offset. Fails if the byte count is insufficient. Returns 0.0 if a valid number can't be decoded.

Variant decode_var ( byte_offset: int, allow_objects: bool = false ) const¹

Decodes a Variant from the bytes starting at byte_offset. Returns null if a valid variant can't be decoded or the value is Object-derived and allow_objects is false.

int decode_var_size ( byte_offset: int, allow_objects: bool = false ) const¹

Decodes a size of a Variant from the bytes starting at byte_offset. Requires at least 4 bytes of data starting at the offset, otherwise fails.

PackedByteArray decompress ( buffer_size: int, compression_mode: int = 0 ) const¹

Returns a new PackedByteArray with the data decompressed. Set buffer_size to the size of the uncompressed data. Set the compression mode using one of CompressionMode's constants.

Note: Decompression is not guaranteed to work with data not compressed by Godot, for example if data compressed with the deflate compression mode lacks a checksum or header.

PackedByteArray decompress_dynamic ( max_output_size: int, compression_mode: int = 0 ) const¹

Returns a new PackedByteArray with the data decompressed. Set the compression mode using one of CompressionMode's constants. This method only accepts brotli, gzip, and deflate compression modes.

This method is potentially slower than decompress, as it may have to re-allocate its output buffer multiple times while decompressing, whereas decompress knows it's output buffer size from the beginning.

GZIP has a maximal compression ratio of 1032:1, meaning it's very possible for a small compressed payload to decompress to a potentially very large output. To guard against this, you may provide a maximum size this function is allowed to allocate in bytes via max_output_size. Passing -1 will allow for unbounded output. If any positive value is passed, and the decompression exceeds that amount in bytes, then an error will be returned.

Note: Decompression is not guaranteed to work with data not compressed by Godot, for example if data compressed with the deflate compression mode lacks a checksum or header.

PackedByteArray duplicate ( )

Creates a copy of the array, and returns it.

void encode_double ( byte_offset: int, value: float )

Encodes a 64-bit floating-point number as bytes at the index of byte_offset bytes. The array must have at least 8 bytes of allocated space, starting at the offset.

void encode_float ( byte_offset: int, value: float )

Encodes a 32-bit floating-point number as bytes at the index of byte_offset bytes. The array must have at least 4 bytes of space, starting at the offset.

int encode_var ( byte_offset: int, value: Variant, allow_objects: bool = false )

Encodes a Variant at the index of byte_offset bytes. A sufficient space must be allocated, depending on the encoded variant's size. If allow_objects is false, Object-derived values are not permitted and will instead be serialized as ID-only.

void fill ( value: int )

Assigns the given value to all elements in the array. This can typically be used together with resize to create an array with a given size and initialized elements.

int find ( value: int, from: int = 0 ) const¹

Searches the array for a value and returns its index or -1 if not found. Optionally, the initial search index can be passed.

int get ( index: int ) const¹

Returns the byte at the given index in the array. This is the same as using the [] operator (array[index]).

String get_string_from_ascii ( ) const¹

Converts ASCII/Latin-1 encoded array to String. Fast alternative to get_string_from_utf8 if the content is ASCII/Latin-1 only. Unlike the UTF-8 function this function maps every byte to a character in the array. Multibyte sequences will not be interpreted correctly. For parsing user input always use get_string_from_utf8. This is the inverse of String.to_ascii_buffer.

String get_string_from_utf8 ( ) const¹

Converts UTF-8 encoded array to String. Slower than get_string_from_ascii but supports UTF-8 encoded data. Use this function if you are unsure about the source of the data. For user input this function should always be preferred. Returns empty string if source array is not valid UTF-8 string. This is the inverse of String.to_utf8_buffer.

String get_string_from_utf16 ( ) const¹

Converts UTF-16 encoded array to String. If the BOM is missing, system endianness is assumed. Returns empty string if source array is not valid UTF-16 string. This is the inverse of String.to_utf16_buffer.

String get_string_from_utf32 ( ) const¹

Converts UTF-32 encoded array to String. System endianness is assumed. Returns empty string if source array is not valid UTF-32 string. This is the inverse of String.to_utf32_buffer.

String get_string_from_wchar ( ) const¹

Converts wide character (wchar_t, UTF-16 on Windows, UTF-32 on other platforms) encoded array to String. Returns empty string if source array is not valid wide string. This is the inverse of String.to_wchar_buffer.

bool has ( value: int ) const¹

Returns true if the array contains value.

bool has_encoded_var ( byte_offset: int, allow_objects: bool = false ) const¹

Returns true if a valid Variant value can be decoded at the byte_offset. Returns false otherwise or when the value is Object-derived and allow_objects is false.

String hex_encode ( ) const¹

Returns a hexadecimal representation of this array as a String.

    var array = PackedByteArray([11, 46, 255])
    print(array.hex_encode()) # Prints: 0b2eff

    var array = new byte[] {11, 46, 255};
    GD.Print(array.HexEncode()); // Prints: 0b2eff

int insert ( at_index: int, value: int )

Inserts a new element at a given position in the array. The position must be valid, or at the end of the array (idx == size()).

bool is_empty ( ) const¹

Returns true if the array is empty.

bool push_back ( value: int )

Appends an element at the end of the array.

void remove_at ( index: int )

Removes an element from the array by index.

int resize ( new_size: int )

Sets the size of the array. If the array is grown, reserves elements at the end of the array. If the array is shrunk, truncates the array to the new size. Calling resize once and assigning the new values is faster than adding new elements one by one.

void reverse ( )

Reverses the order of the elements in the array.

int rfind ( value: int, from: int = -1 ) const¹

Searches the array in reverse order. Optionally, a start search index can be passed. If negative, the start index is considered relative to the end of the array.

void set ( index: int, value: int )

Changes the byte at the given index.

int size ( ) const¹

Returns the number of elements in the array.

PackedByteArray slice ( begin: int, end: int = 2147483647 ) const¹

Returns the slice of the PackedByteArray, from begin (inclusive) to end (exclusive), as a new PackedByteArray.

The absolute value of begin and end will be clamped to the array size, so the default value for end makes it slice to the size of the array by default (i.e. arr.slice(1) is a shorthand for arr.slice(1, arr.size())).

If either begin or end are negative, they will be relative to the end of the array (i.e. arr.slice(0, -2) is a shorthand for arr.slice(0, arr.size() - 2)).

void sort ( )

Sorts the elements of the array in ascending order.

PackedFloat32Array to_float32_array ( ) const¹

Returns a copy of the data converted to a PackedFloat32Array, where each block of 4 bytes has been converted to a 32-bit float (C++ float).

The size of the input array must be a multiple of 4 (size of 32-bit float). The size of the new array will be byte_array.size() / 4.

If the original data can't be converted to 32-bit floats, the resulting data is undefined.

PackedFloat64Array to_float64_array ( ) const¹

Returns a copy of the data converted to a PackedFloat64Array, where each block of 8 bytes has been converted to a 64-bit float (C++ double, Godot float).

The size of the input array must be a multiple of 8 (size of 64-bit double). The size of the new array will be byte_array.size() / 8.

If the original data can't be converted to 64-bit floats, the resulting data is undefined.

PackedInt32Array to_int32_array ( ) const¹

Returns a copy of the data converted to a PackedInt32Array, where each block of 4 bytes has been converted to a signed 32-bit integer (C++ int32_t).

The size of the input array must be a multiple of 4 (size of 32-bit integer). The size of the new array will be byte_array.size() / 4.

If the original data can't be converted to signed 32-bit integers, the resulting data is undefined.

PackedInt64Array to_int64_array ( ) const¹

Returns a copy of the data converted to a PackedInt64Array, where each block of 8 bytes has been converted to a signed 64-bit integer (C++ int64_t, Godot int).

The size of the input array must be a multiple of 8 (size of 64-bit integer). The size of the new array will be byte_array.size() / 8.

If the original data can't be converted to signed 64-bit integers, the resulting data is undefined.

运算符说明

bool operator != ( right: PackedByteArray )

Returns true if contents of the arrays differ.

PackedByteArray operator + ( right: PackedByteArray )

Returns a new PackedByteArray with contents of right added at the end of this array. For better performance, consider using append_array instead.

bool operator == ( right: PackedByteArray )

Returns true if contents of both arrays are the same, i.e. they have all equal bytes at the corresponding indices.

int operator [] ( index: int )

Returns the byte at index index. Negative indices can be used to access the elements starting from the end. Using index out of array's bounds will result in an error.

Note that the byte is returned as a 64-bit int.
