VMFParser

.Net Library written in C#. Useful for generating or parsing in an existing VMF into a tree like structure. Tree can be written to a new VMF file.

namespace VMFParser

interface IVNode

• Represents an entry in a VMF.

string Name (get)

• Represents the title of a node.

class VBlock : IVNode

• Represents a block containing other IVNodes in a VMF

In the following Example, Name = visgroup, and Body will contain a list of the VProperys

visgroup
{
  "name" "Tree_1"
  "visgroupid" "5"
  "color" "65 45 0"
}

string Name (get, private set)

• Represents the title of the Body, it is the top-level text before the { }.

IList<IVNode> Body (get, private set)

• Holds subnodes of this VBlock.

Constructor(string name, IList<IVNode> body(null))

• Initializes a new instance of the VBlock class from its name and a list of IVNodes.

Constructor(string[] text)

• Initializes a new instance of the VBlock class from VMF text.

string[] ToVMFStrings(bool useTabs(true))

• Generates the VMF text representation of this block.

string ToString()

• Returns base ToString with "(Name)" to help with debugging.

class VProperty : IVNode

• Represents a single property name and value.

In the following example, Name = visgroupid, and the Value = 5

"visgroupid" "5"

string Name (get, private set)

• Represents the title/name of the property.

string Value (get, set)

• Holds the text value of this property.

Constructor(string name, string value)

• Initializes a new instance of the VProperty class from the name and value of a property.

Constructor(string text)

• Initializes a new instance of the VProperty class from vmf text line.

string ToVMFString()

• Generates the VMF text representation of this Property.

string ToString()

• Returns base ToString with "(Name)" to help with debugging.

class VMF

• Represents the full contents of a VMF file, this is similar to a VBLock, but with no Name.

IList<IVNode> Body (get, private set)

• Holds all the subnodes (IVNode) in a VMF

Constructor()

• Initializes a new instance of the VMF class.

Constructor(IList<IVNode> body)

• Initializes a new instance of the VMF class from a list of IVNodes.

Constructor(string[] text)

• Initializes a new instance of the VMF class from the VMF text.

string[] ToVMFStrings()

• Generates the VMF text from the body of IVNodes.
