how to Read a ini file from script

[dani703q]

Hello I was wondering how i can make my script read my ini file does somebody know

@dani703q Since I don't know what language you're using in your script, I'm going to assume it's C#. You can use the StreamReader and StreamWriter class to read or write to a .txt file.

I hope that's it.

@Niziul bruh, you don't need to use that. If he's using SHVDN, then he can use the ScriptSettings class to read/write ini files.

@JustDancePC Look, I didn't know. Thanks for the tip.

@JustDancePC Can you post sample code, so others can benefit. Thanks

Just to add to the party, this is how I read text files, so not .ini files, but text in general.

lines = System.IO.File.ReadAllLines(@"pathgoeshere\name.txt");

In SHVDN, you can read an .ini file the same name as your script like this:

Settings.GetValue("Category", "Key", "default_value");

If you want to use an .ini file that is not named the same as your script:

var settings = ScriptSettings.Load("scripts\\custom_named.ini");
settings.GetValue("Category", "Key", "default_value");

Just to add your script as an example for both the script and the .ini.

Script:
Settings.GetValue("Settings", "Key", Keys.J);

Ini:
[Settings]
Key = J

Edit: no quotes on the default key in GetValue, Keys.J

[Jitnaught]

@JohnFromGWN except the default value should be Keys.J not "Key.J"

@Jitnaught my bad, will edit it.
