A tool to export code from a GameMaker project to a text file

GM Code Exporter

GM Code Exporter exports code from objects and scripts in a GameMaker project to a text file.

It is very quickly put together without much polish - but it does the job!

Usage

You need to have Node.js installed to use this tool from the CLI.

If you are using it for the first time, you need to install the dependecies using:

npm install

Run the following command:

node index.js --obj --scr --yyp "<yyp_path_here>"

Argument	Description
--yyp <path>	Path to the yyp file
--obj	Get code from the objects
--scr	Get code from the scripts

An output text file will be generated in the ./out/ directory.

Customization

You can customize the header and footer of how each file is printed in the output. The classes can be edited from ./src/Types.js.

Class	Method	Description
Object	get_header	Header of code from GM objects
	get_footer	Footer of code from GM objects
Script	get_header	Header of code from GM scripts
	get_footer	Footer of code from GM scripts

All methods have the same argument, fname, which indicates the gml file name the code is being read from.
