Config system

Yes, you can do that too

Basic config system

This type of config system is NOT present in the gamesense version of pui. See packages if you are working on a gamesense script.

To use pui config system, you must keep all your elements in a table or tables, not in local variables.

The table(s) passed to pui.setup(t) can have any level of elevation. pui will interpret the table to a config system

You need to set up your elements after the creation of all elements. You can't update the config system.

Simple solution: pui.setup() in the end of the script.

Case 1

This is probably the easiest way to set up a config system.

local menu = {
    enable = pui.switch("General", "Master")
    rage = {
        switch = pui.switch("Rage", "Enable"),
    },
    visuals = {
        color = pui.color_picker("Group", "Color"),
    },
    misc = {
        combo = pui.combo("Group", "Combo", {"A", "B", "C"}),
    }
}

pui.setup(menu)

Case 2

Good way if you don't want to add any elements after the setup.

local menu = pui.setup({
    enable = pui.switch("General", "Master")
    rage = {
        switch = pui.switch("Rage", "Enable"),
    },
    visuals = {
        color = pui.color_picker("Group", "Color"),
    },
    misc = {
        combo = pui.combo("Group", "Combo", {"A", "B", "C"}),
    }
})

Case 3

In this case you can separately add elements to setup, but the way of accessing certain regions will change.

local m_rage = {
    switch = pui.switch("Rage", "Enable"),
}
local m_visuals = {
    enable = pui.switch("Visuals", "Enable"),
    chams = {
        color = pui.color_picker("Visuals", "Color"),
    }
}
local m_misc = {
    combo = pui.combo("Misc", "Combo", {"A", "B", "C"}),
}

pui.setup({m_rage, m_visuals, m_misc})

pui.save(1) -- only save m_rage
pui.save(2, "chams") -- only save m_visuals > chams

Everything's ready. Now you can save and load your configs.

Keep in mind that any changes to your table may affect the config system and, therefore, old configs will lose some of the information (or even lose it all)

pui ignores non-existing regions of configs.

Saving and loading

When you have set the config system up, you can use it easily.

pui.save(...) : table

As you can see, this function will return a table of values. This table is identical to the original table of elements.

General saving

local config = pui.save()

Done.

You may also want to serialize and encrypt it:

local encrypted = base64.encode( json.stringify(config) )

Saving special regions

... is a path to a certain region of your table. For example, you want to only save rage region of your elements. In this case, it will look like this:

pui.save("rage")

It also supports nested tables. For example:

pui.save("antiaim", "antibrute", "general")

pui.load(config, ...)

There is nothing complicated as well.

Don't forget to decrypt and parse the data. pui.load() only accepts a table created with pui.save().

General loading

local config = pui.save()
pui.load(config)

local encrypted = base64.encode( json.stringify(config) )
local decrypted = json.parse( base64.decode(encrypted) )
pui.load(decrypted)

Loading special regions

... is a path to a certain region of your table. For example, you want to only load rage region of your elements. In this case, it will look like this:

pui.load(config, "rage")

It also supports nested tables. Just like pui.save()

Packages - Isolated config system

This is a much better way to use the config system in pui, as it won't be affected by other scripts and can be created multiple times.

You can create several config systems, but that is superfluous, since you can just define regions to save and load.

Creating

neverlose

local package = pui.setup(menu, true)

gamesense

local package = pui.setup(menu)

Saving and loading

config:save(...) : table

As you can see, this method will return a table of values. This table is identical to the original table of elements.

General saving

local config = pui.setup(menu)
local data = config:save()

Done.

You may also want to serialize and encrypt it:

local encrypted = base64.encode( json.stringify(data) )

Saving special regions

... is a path to a certain region of your table. For example, you want to only save rage region of your elements. In this case, it will look like this:

config:save("rage")

It also supports nested tables. For example:

config:save("antiaim", "antibrute", "general")

config:load(data, ...)

There is nothing complicated as well.

Don't forget to decrypt and parse the data. :load() only accepts a table created with :save().

General loading

local config = pui.setup(menu)

local data = config:save()
config:load(data)

local encrypted = base64.encode( json.stringify(data) )
local decrypted = json.parse( base64.decode(encrypted) )
config:load(decrypted)

Loading special regions

... is a path to a certain region of your table. For example, you want to only load rage region of your elements. In this case, it will look like this:

config:load(config, "rage")

It also supports nested tables. Just like :save()
