Everyone,

I am trying to get in to modding. I have down load pydawrf and gotten to the point where I trying to get a simple code to run. The goal of the code is to create a list of all wooden things in my game. The scrips runs with out throwing a error via the management script. However I want the list outputted/printed to console so I can verify it exist. I have not been able to do this. How do I achieve this?

My code is: 

Code: [Select]

import pydwarf

@pydwarf.urist(name = 'stocklist.stocklist',description = 'find all items made of wood')


def inv (df):
    m = 'Meterial:wood' # check spelling
    inv = df.all(m)
    return inv
    return pydwarf.success()

Thanks
Sunhear

You should post it in the pydwarf thread, otherwise I doubt madk will see this.

Try print (inv) instead of return.

It seems most of the scripts produced use Lua, so you may have a better chance of getting help using that script language (assuming, of course, you don't have a specific reason for wanting to use pydwarf [which I guess is using Python]).

[Bearskie]

Wait, I just realized that script plain doesn't work. That's basically asking pydwarf to search the raws for all tags [Materiel:wood], which isn't a valid raw token.

Does OP want a complete list of wooden things in his currently-running game? If you want to read info from the game itself, you need to write a dfhack script, not a pydwarf one - the latter only works to edit raws.

what programming langue dose DFhack use? also were can I get a list of valid tokens?

[Putnam]

1. C++, Lua and Ruby
2. https://github.com/DFHack/df-structures

[sunhear]

is there any way to right a python script that can read DF?

[milo christiansen]

No, and that's a good thing.

[Putnam]

Yeah, too many languages in the ecosystem can cause some problems, ruby by itself is a bit of an odd man out

[Fleeting Frames]

Incidentally, since they're both scripting, do you know what are the general advantages of ruby over lua for dfhack?

[Putnam]

The only advantage that I know of is that you get to use Ruby instead of Lua. Ruby is more limited in various ways than Lua.
