AutoExecConfig

An includefile to read and append to autoconfigs created by sourcemod.

Warning

This should be considered a beta or proof of concept at this time.
I have tried to write it performant aswell as secure, it seems stable but it hasn't been tested enough.
No warranty is given if it destroys something, you have been warned..

How does it work?

If you add an convar via AutoExecConfig_CreateConVar it will be searched in the autoconfigfile you have set before.
If it can't be found within the file it will add it with the informations you created the convar with.
After that the file should be cleaned from unneccessary whitespaces created by user or autoexecconfig itself.

Implementing

One thing i had in mind while writing this was easy implementation, for basic usage you only have to add 2 lines and rename the command you create your convars with.

An example

Lets assume you already wrote an plugin with some convars which might look like this.

public OnPluginStart()
{
	CreateConVar("sm_myplugin_enabled", "1", "Whether or not this plugin is enabled");
	CreateConVar("sm_myplugin_chattrigger", "myplugin", "Chattrigger to open the menu of this plugin");
	CreateConVar("sm_myplugin_adminflag", "b", "Adminflag needed to use the chattrigger");
	
	AutoExecConfig(true, "plugin.myplugin");
}

In order to use this include it would simply have to be changed to this:

public OnPluginStart()
{
	// Set the file for the include
	AutoExecConfig_SetFile("plugin.myplugin");
	
	AutoExecConfig_CreateConVar("sm_myplugin_enabled", "1", "Whether or not this plugin is enabled");
	AutoExecConfig_CreateConVar("sm_myplugin_chattrigger", "myplugin", "Chattrigger to open the menu of this plugin");
	AutoExecConfig_CreateConVar("sm_myplugin_adminflag", "b", "Adminflag needed to use the chattrigger");
	
	AutoExecConfig_ExecuteFile();
	
	// Cleaning is an expensive operation and should be done at the end
	AutoExecConfig_CleanFile();
}
