EditorExportPlugin
==================

**Inherits:** :ref:`RefCounted<class_RefCounted>` **<** :ref:`Object<class_Object>`

A script that is executed when exporting the project.

.. rst-class:: classref-introduction-group

Description
-----------

**EditorExportPlugin**\ s are automatically invoked whenever the user exports the project. Their most common use is to determine what files are being included in the exported project. For each plugin, :ref:`_export_begin()<class_EditorExportPlugin_private_method__export_begin>` is called at the beginning of the export process and then :ref:`_export_file()<class_EditorExportPlugin_private_method__export_file>` is called for each exported file.

To use **EditorExportPlugin**, register it using the :ref:`EditorPlugin.add_export_plugin()<class_EditorPlugin_method_add_export_plugin>` method first.

Method Descriptions
-------------------

.. _class_EditorExportPlugin_private_method__begin_customize_resources:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`bool<class_bool>` **_begin_customize_resources**\ (\ platform\: :ref:`EditorExportPlatform<class_EditorExportPlatform>`, features\: :ref:`PackedStringArray<class_PackedStringArray>`\ ) |virtual| |const| :ref:`🔗<class_EditorExportPlugin_private_method__begin_customize_resources>`

Return ``true`` if this plugin will customize resources based on the platform and features used.

When enabled, :ref:`_get_customization_configuration_hash()<class_EditorExportPlugin_private_method__get_customization_configuration_hash>` and :ref:`_customize_resource()<class_EditorExportPlugin_private_method__customize_resource>` will be called and must be implemented.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_EditorExportPlugin_private_method__begin_customize_scenes:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`bool<class_bool>` **_begin_customize_scenes**\ (\ platform\: :ref:`EditorExportPlatform<class_EditorExportPlatform>`, features\: :ref:`PackedStringArray<class_PackedStringArray>`\ ) |virtual| |const| :ref:`🔗<class_EditorExportPlugin_private_method__begin_customize_scenes>`

Return ``true`` if this plugin will customize scenes based on the platform and features used.

When enabled, :ref:`_get_customization_configuration_hash()<class_EditorExportPlugin_private_method__get_customization_configuration_hash>` and :ref:`_customize_scene()<class_EditorExportPlugin_private_method__customize_scene>` will be called and must be implemented.

\ **Note:** :ref:`_customize_scene()<class_EditorExportPlugin_private_method__customize_scene>` will only be called for scenes that have been modified since the last export.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_EditorExportPlugin_private_method__customize_resource:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`Resource<class_Resource>` **_customize_resource**\ (\ resource\: :ref:`Resource<class_Resource>`, path\: :ref:`String<class_String>`\ ) |virtual| :ref:`🔗<class_EditorExportPlugin_private_method__customize_resource>`

Customize a resource. If changes are made to it, return the same or a new resource. Otherwise, return ``null``. When a new resource is returned, ``resource`` will be replaced by a copy of the new resource.

The ``path`` argument is only used when customizing an actual file, otherwise this means that this resource is part of another one and it will be empty.

Implementing this method is required if :ref:`_begin_customize_resources()<class_EditorExportPlugin_private_method__begin_customize_resources>` returns ``true``.

\ **Note:** When customizing any of the following types and returning another resource, the other resource should not be skipped using :ref:`skip()<class_EditorExportPlugin_method_skip>` in :ref:`_export_file()<class_EditorExportPlugin_private_method__export_file>`:

- :ref:`AtlasTexture<class_AtlasTexture>`\ 

- :ref:`CompressedCubemap<class_CompressedCubemap>`\ 

- :ref:`CompressedCubemapArray<class_CompressedCubemapArray>`\ 

- :ref:`CompressedTexture2D<class_CompressedTexture2D>`\

Customize a scene. If changes are made to it, return the same or a new scene. Otherwise, return ``null``. If a new scene is returned, it is up to you to dispose of the old one.

Implementing this method is required if :ref:`_begin_customize_scenes()<class_EditorExportPlugin_private_method__begin_customize_scenes>` returns ``true``.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

Virtual method to be overridden by the user. It is called when the export starts and provides all information about the export. ``features`` is the list of features for the export, ``is_debug`` is ``true`` for debug builds, ``path`` is the target path for the exported project. ``flags`` is only used when running a runnable profile, e.g. when using native run on Android.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_EditorExportPlugin_private_method__export_end:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

|void| **_export_end**\ (\ ) |virtual| :ref:`🔗<class_EditorExportPlugin_private_method__export_end>`

Virtual method to be overridden by the user. Called when the export is finished.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_EditorExportPlugin_private_method__export_file:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

Virtual method to be overridden by the user. Called for each exported file before :ref:`_customize_resource()<class_EditorExportPlugin_private_method__customize_resource>` and :ref:`_customize_scene()<class_EditorExportPlugin_private_method__customize_scene>`. The arguments can be used to identify the file. ``path`` is the path of the file, ``type`` is the :ref:`Resource<class_Resource>` represented by the file (e.g. :ref:`PackedScene<class_PackedScene>`), and ``features`` is the list of features for the export.

Virtual method to be overridden by the user. This is called to retrieve the local paths of the Android libraries archive (AAR) files provided by this plugin.

\ **Note:** Relative paths **must** be relative to Godot's ``res://addons/`` directory. For example, an AAR file located under ``res://addons/hello_world_plugin/HelloWorld.release.aar`` can be returned as an absolute path using ``res://addons/hello_world_plugin/HelloWorld.release.aar`` or a relative path using ``hello_world_plugin/HelloWorld.release.aar``.
