class WebSocketPeer

Deprecated. Use get_var and put_var parameters instead.

If true, the PacketPeer will allow encoding and decoding of object via godot.PacketPeer.getVar and godot.PacketPeer.putVar.

Warning: Deserialized objects can contain code which gets executed. Do not use this option if the serialized object comes from untrusted sources to avoid potential security threats such as remote code execution.

Maximum buffer size allowed when encoding Variants. Raise this value to support heavier memory allocations.

The godot.PacketPeer.putVar method allocates memory on the stack, and the buffer used will grow automatically to the closest power of two to match the size of the Variant. If the Variant is bigger than encode_buffer_max_size, the method will error out with ERR_OUT_OF_MEMORY.

Gets a new godot.DynamicGodotObject associated with this instance.

The pointer to the native instance of this godot.Object.

script_changed signal.

Returns the number of packets currently available in the ring-buffer.

Gets a raw packet.

Returns the error state of the last packet received (via godot.PacketPeer.getPacket and godot.PacketPeer.getVar).

Gets a Variant. If allow_objects (or godot.PacketPeer.allowObjectDecoding) is true, decoding objects is allowed.

Warning: Deserialized objects can contain code which gets executed. Do not use this option if the serialized object comes from untrusted sources to avoid potential security threats such as remote code execution.

Sends a raw packet.

Sends a Variant as a packet. If full_objects (or godot.PacketPeer.allowObjectDecoding) is true, encoding objects is allowed (and can potentially include code).

Initializes the internal reference counter. Use this only if you really know what you are doing.

Returns whether the initialization was successful.

Increments the internal reference counter. Use this only if you really know what you are doing.

Returns true if the increment was successful, false otherwise.

Decrements the internal reference counter. Use this only if you really know what you are doing.

Returns true if the decrement was successful, false otherwise.

Virtual method which can be overridden to customize the return value of godot.Object.get.

Returns the given property. Returns null if the property does not exist.

Virtual method which can be overridden to customize the return value of godot.Object.getPropertyList.

Returns the object's property list as an godot.Collections_Array of dictionaries.

Each property's godot.Collections_Dictionary must contain at least name: String and type: int (see godot.Variant_Type) entries. Optionally, it can also include hint: int (see godot.PropertyHint), hint_string: String, and usage: int (see godot.PropertyUsageFlags).

Called whenever the object receives a notification, which is identified in what by a constant. The base godot.Object has two constants godot.Object.notificationPostinitialize and godot.Object.notificationPredelete, but subclasses such as godot.Node define a lot more notifications which are also received by this method.

Virtual method which can be overridden to customize the return value of godot.Object.set.

Sets a property. Returns true if the property exists.

Adds a user-defined signal. Arguments are optional, but can be added as an godot.Collections_Array of dictionaries, each containing name: String and type: int (see godot.Variant_Type) entries.

Parameters:

Calls the method on the object and returns the result. This method supports a variable number of arguments, so parameters are passed as a comma separated list. Example:

call("set", "position", Vector2(42.0, 0.0))

Note: In C#, the method name must be specified as snake_case if it is defined by a built-in Godot node. This doesn't apply to user-defined methods where you should use the same convention as in the C# source (typically PascalCase).

Calls the method on the object during idle time. This method supports a variable number of arguments, so parameters are passed as a comma separated list. Example:

call_deferred("set", "position", Vector2(42.0, 0.0))

Note: In C#, the method name must be specified as snake_case if it is defined by a built-in Godot node. This doesn't apply to user-defined methods where you should use the same convention as in the C# source (typically PascalCase).

Calls the method on the object and returns the result. Contrarily to godot.Object.call, this method does not support a variable number of arguments but expects all parameters to be via a single godot.Collections_Array.

callv("set", [ "position", Vector2(42.0, 0.0) ])

Returns true if the object can translate strings. See godot.Object.setMessageTranslation and godot.Object.tr.

Connects a signal to a method on a target object. Pass optional binds to the call as an godot.Collections_Array of parameters. These parameters will be passed to the method after any parameter used in the call to godot.Object.emitSignal. Use flags to set deferred or one-shot connections. See godot.Object_ConnectFlags constants.

A signal can only be connected once to a method. It will print an error if already connected, unless the signal was connected with godot.Object_ConnectFlags.referenceCounted. To avoid this, first, use godot.Object.isConnected to check for existing connections.

If the target is destroyed in the game's lifecycle, the connection will be lost.

Examples:

connect("pressed", self, "_on_Button_pressed") # BaseButton signal
connect("text_entered", self, "_on_LineEdit_text_entered") # LineEdit signal
connect("hit", self, "_on_Player_hit", [ weapon_type, damage ]) # User-defined signal

An example of the relationship between binds passed to godot.Object.connect and parameters used when calling godot.Object.emitSignal:

connect("hit", self, "_on_Player_hit", [ weapon_type, damage ]) # weapon_type and damage are passed last
emit_signal("hit", "Dark lord", 5) # "Dark lord" and 5 are passed first
func _on_Player_hit(hit_by, level, weapon_type, damage):
print("Hit by %s (lvl %d) with weapon %s for %d damage" % [hit_by, level, weapon_type, damage])

Parameters:

Disconnects a signal from a method on the given target.

If you try to disconnect a connection that does not exist, the method will print an error. Use godot.Object.isConnected to ensure that the connection exists.

Disposes of this godot.Object.

Emits the given signal. The signal must exist, so it should be a built-in signal of this class or one of its parent classes, or a user-defined signal. This method supports a variable number of arguments, so parameters are passed as a comma separated list. Example:

emit_signal("hit", weapon_type, damage)
emit_signal("game_over")

Deletes the object from memory immediately. For godot.Nodes, you may want to use godot.Node.queueFree to queue the node for safe deletion at the end of the current frame.

Important: If you have a variable pointing to an object, it will not be assigned to null once the object is freed. Instead, it will point to a previously freed instance and you should validate it with @GDScript.is_instance_valid before attempting to call its methods or access its properties.

Returns the Variant value of the given property. If the property doesn't exist, this will return null.

Note: In C#, the property name must be specified as snake_case if it is defined by a built-in Godot node. This doesn't apply to user-defined properties where you should use the same convention as in the C# source (typically PascalCase).

Returns the object's class as a String. See also godot.Object.isClass.

Note: godot.Object.getClass does not take class_name declarations into account. If the object has a class_name defined, the base class name will be returned instead.

Returns an godot.Collections_Array of dictionaries with information about signals that are connected to the object.

Each godot.Collections_Dictionary contains three String entries:

• source is a reference to the signal emitter.

• signal_name is the name of the connected signal.

• method_name is the name of the method to which the signal is connected.

Gets the object's property indexed by the given godot.NodePath. The node path should be relative to the current object and can use the colon character (:) to access nested properties. Examples: "position:x" or "material:next_pass:blend_mode".

Note: Even though the method takes godot.NodePath argument, it doesn't support actual paths to godot.Nodes in the scene tree, only colon-separated sub-property paths. For the purpose of nodes, use godot.Node.getNodeAndResource instead.

Returns the object's unique instance ID.

This ID can be saved in godot.EncodedObjectAsID, and can be used to retrieve the object instance with @GDScript.instance_from_id.

Returns the object's metadata entry for the given name.

Returns the object's metadata as a String.

Returns the object's methods and their signatures as an godot.Collections_Array.

Returns the object's property list as an godot.Collections_Array of dictionaries.

Each property's godot.Collections_Dictionary contain at least name: String and type: int (see godot.Variant_Type) entries. Optionally, it can also include hint: int (see godot.PropertyHint), hint_string: String, and usage: int (see godot.PropertyUsageFlags).

Returns the object's godot.Script instance, or null if none is assigned.

Returns an godot.Collections_Array of connections for the given signal.

Returns the list of signals as an godot.Collections_Array of dictionaries.

Returns true if a metadata entry is found with the given name.

Returns true if the object contains the given method.

Returns true if the given signal exists.

Returns true if the given user-defined signal exists. Only signals added using godot.Object.addUserSignal are taken into account.

Returns true if signal emission blocking is enabled.

Returns true if the object inherits from the given class. See also godot.Object.getClass.

Note: godot.Object.isClass does not take class_name declarations into account. If the object has a class_name defined, godot.Object.isClass will return false for that name.

Returns true if a connection exists for a given signal, target, and method.

Returns true if the godot.Node.queueFree method was called for the object.

Send a given notification to the object, which will also trigger a call to the godot.Object._Notification method of all classes that the object inherits from.

If reversed is true, godot.Object._Notification is called first on the object's own class, and then up to its successive parent classes. If reversed is false, godot.Object._Notification is called first on the highest ancestor (godot.Object itself), and then down to its successive inheriting classes.

Notify the editor that the property list has changed, so that editor plugins can take the new values into account. Does nothing on export builds.

Removes a given entry from the object's metadata. See also godot.Object.setMeta.

Assigns a new value to the given property. If the property does not exist or the given value's type doesn't match, nothing will happen.

Note: In C#, the property name must be specified as snake_case if it is defined by a built-in Godot node. This doesn't apply to user-defined properties where you should use the same convention as in the C# source (typically PascalCase).

If set to true, signal emission is blocked.

Assigns a new value to the given property, after the current frame's physics step. This is equivalent to calling godot.Object.set via godot.Object.callDeferred, i.e. call_deferred("set", property, value).

Note: In C#, the property name must be specified as snake_case if it is defined by a built-in Godot node. This doesn't apply to user-defined properties where you should use the same convention as in the C# source (typically PascalCase).

Assigns a new value to the property identified by the godot.NodePath. The node path should be relative to the current object and can use the colon character (:) to access nested properties. Example:

set_indexed("position", Vector2(42, 0))
set_indexed("position:y", -10)
print(position) # (42, -10)

Defines whether the object can translate strings (with calls to godot.Object.tr). Enabled by default.

Adds, changes or removes a given entry in the object's metadata. Metadata are serialized and can take any Variant value.

To remove a given entry from the object's metadata, use godot.Object.removeMeta. Metadata is also removed if its value is set to null. This means you can also use set_meta("name", null) to remove metadata for "name".

Assigns a script to the object. Each object can have a single script assigned to it, which are used to extend its functionality.

If the object already had a script, the previous script instance will be freed and its variables and state will be lost. The new script's method will be called.

Returns a new godot.SignalAwaiter awaiter configured to complete when the instance source emits the signal specified by the signal parameter.

Parameters:

public override void _Ready()
{
for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++)
{
await ToSignal(GetTree(), "idle_frame");
GD.Print($"Frame {i}");
}
}

Returns:

Converts this godot.Object to a string.

Returns:

Translates a message using translation catalogs configured in the Project Settings.

Only works if message translation is enabled (which it is by default), otherwise it returns the message unchanged. See godot.Object.setMessageTranslation.
