# Easy buttons for the Unity default inspector
[](https://openupm.com/packages/com.madsbangh.easybuttons/)
These tiny scripts add the ability to quickly show a button in the inspector for any method.
## Installation
### OpenUPM
Once you have the OpenUPM cli, run the following command:
```openupm install com.madsbangh.easybuttons```
Or if you don't have it, add the scoped registry to manifest.json with the desired version:
```json
"scopedRegistries": [
{
"name": "package.openupm.com",
"url": "https://package.openupm.com",
"scopes": [
"com.madsbangh.easybuttons",
"com.openupm"
]
}
],
"dependencies": {
"com.madsbangh.easybuttons": "1.4.0"
}
```
### Git URL
Project supports Unity Package Manager. To install the project as a Git package do the following:
1. In Unity, open **Window** -> **Package Manager**.
2. Press the **+** button, choose "**Add package from git URL...**"
3. Enter "https://github.com/madsbangh/EasyButtons.git#upm" and press **Add**.
### Unity Package
Alternatively, you can add the code directly to the project:
1. Clone the repo or download the latest release.
2. Add the EasyButtons folder to your Unity project or import the .unitypackage
## How To Use
1. Add the Button attribute to a method.
```csharp
using EasyButtons; // 1. Import the namespace
using UnityEngine;
public class ButtonsExample : MonoBehaviour
{
// 2. Add the Button attribute to any method.
[Button]
public void SayHello()
{
Debug.Log("Hello");
}
}
```
2. You should now see a button at the top of the component with the same name as the method:
3. Add the Button attribute to a method with parameters.
```csharp
using EasyButtons;
using UnityEngine;
public class Test : MonoBehaviour
{
[Button]
public void ButtonWithParameters(string message, int number)
{
Debug.Log($"Your message #{number}: '{message}'");
}
}
```
4. You can now enter parameter values and invoke the method in the inspector:
## Attribute Options
The `Button` attribute has different options that allow customizing the button look.
***Mode*** - indicates when the button is enabled. You can choose between the following options:
- AlwaysEnabled - the button is enabled in edit mode and play mode.
- EnabledInPlayMode - the button is only enabled in play mode.
- DisabledInPlayMode - the button is only enabled in edit mode.
***Spacing*** - allows to have some space before or after the button. The following options can be used:
- None - no spacing at all.
- Before - adds space above the button.
- After - adds space below the button.
***Expanded*** - whether to expand the parameters foldout by default. It only works with buttons that have parameters.
## Custom Editors
If you want to show buttons in a custom editor, you can use the **ButtonsDrawer** class defined in EasyButtons.Editor.
Instantiate ButtonsDrawer in OnEnable if possible, then draw the buttons with help of the DrawButtons method, as in the example:
```csharp
[CustomEditor(typeof(Example))]
public class CustomEditor : ObjectEditor
{
private ButtonsDrawer _buttonsDrawer;
private void OnEnable()
{
_buttonsDrawer = new ButtonsDrawer(target);
}
public override void OnInspectorGUI()
{
DrawDefaultInspector();
_buttonsDrawer.DrawButtons(targets);
}
}
```
You can also draw only specific buttons:
```csharp
// Draw only the button called "Custom Editor Example"
_buttonsDrawers.Buttons.First(button => button.DisplayName == "Custom Editor Example").Draw(targets);
```
You can search for a specific button using its ***DisplayName*** or ***Method*** (MethodInfo object the button is attached to.)
## Notes
- Older versions of Unity might not understand the reference to EasyButtons runtime in the EasyButtons editor assembly definition. If you experience issues, you can re-add the reference, or remove the asmdefs completely.
