InheritanceAssetManager Inheritance EventDispatcher Inheritance Object
Deprecated: Please Use starling.assets.AssetManager

The AssetManager handles loading and accessing a variety of asset types. You can add assets directly (via the 'add...' methods) or asynchronously via a queue. This allows you to deal with assets in a unified way, no matter if they are loaded from a file, directory, URL, or from an embedded object.

The class can deal with the following media types:

For more information on how to add assets from different sources, read the documentation of the "enqueue()" method.

Context Loss

When the stage3D context is lost (and you have enabled 'Starling.handleLostContext'), the AssetManager will automatically restore all loaded textures. To save memory, it will get them from their original sources. Since this is done asynchronously, your images might not reappear all at once, but during a timeframe of several seconds. If you want, you can pause your game during that time; the AssetManager dispatches an "Event.TEXTURES_RESTORED" event when all textures have been restored.

Error handling

Loading of some assets may fail while the queue is being processed. In that case, the AssetManager will dispatch events of type "IO_ERROR", "SECURITY_ERROR" or "PARSE_ERROR". You can listen to those events and handle the errors manually (e.g., you could enqueue them once again and retry, or provide placeholder textures). Queue processing will continue even when those events are dispatched.

Using variable texture formats

When you enqueue a texture, its properties for "format", "scale", "mipMapping", and "repeat" will reflect the settings of the AssetManager at the time they were enqueued. This means that you can enqueue a bunch of textures, then change the settings and enqueue some more. Like this:

      var appDir:File = File.applicationDirectory;
      var assets:AssetManager = new AssetManager();
      
      assets.textureFormat = Context3DTextureFormat.BGRA;
      assets.enqueue(appDir.resolvePath("textures/32bit"));
      
      assets.textureFormat = Context3DTextureFormat.BGRA_PACKED;
      assets.enqueue(appDir.resolvePath("textures/16bit"));
      
      assets.loadQueue(...);

Method Detail
addBitmapFont()method
public function addBitmapFont(name:String, font:BitmapFont):void

Register a bitmap font under a certain name. It will be available right away. If the name was already taken, the existing font will be disposed and replaced by the new one.

Note that the font is not registered at the TextField class. This only happens when a bitmap font is loaded via the asset queue.

Parameters

name:String
 
font:BitmapFont

addByteArray()method 
public function addByteArray(name:String, byteArray:ByteArray):void

Register a byte array under a certain name. It will be available right away. If the name was already taken, the existing byte array will be cleared and replaced by the new one.

Parameters

Parameters

name:String
 
xml:XML

dispose()method 
public function dispose():void

Disposes all contained textures, XMLs and ByteArrays.

Beware that all references to the assets will remain intact, even though the assets are no longer valid. Call 'purge' if you want to remove all resources and reuse the AssetManager later.

enqueue()method 
public function enqueue(... rawAssets):void

Enqueues one or more raw assets; they will only be available after successfully executing the "loadQueue" method. This method accepts a variety of different objects:

Suitable object names are extracted automatically: A file named "image.png" will be accessible under the name "image". When enqueuing embedded assets via a class, the variable name of the embedded object will be used as its name. An exception are texture atlases: they will have the same name as the actual texture they are referencing.

XMLs that contain texture atlases or bitmap fonts are processed directly: fonts are registered at the TextField class, atlas textures can be acquired with the "getTexture()" method. All other XMLs are available via "getXml()".

If you pass in JSON data, it will be parsed into an object and will be available via "getObject()".

Parameters

... rawAssets

enqueueWithName()method 
public function enqueueWithName(asset:Object, name:String = null, options:TextureOptions = null):String

Enqueues a single asset with a custom name that can be used to access it later. If the asset is a texture, you can also add custom texture options.

Parameters

asset:Object — The asset that will be enqueued; accepts the same objects as the 'enqueue' method.
 
name:String (default = null) — The name under which the asset will be found later. If you pass null or omit the parameter, it's attempted to generate a name automatically.

loadQueue()method 
public function loadQueue(onProgress:Function):void

Loads all enqueued assets asynchronously. The 'onProgress' function will be called with a 'ratio' between '0.0' and '1.0', with '1.0' meaning that it's complete.

When you call this method, the manager will save a reference to "Starling.current"; all textures that are loaded will be accessible only from within this instance. Thus, if you are working with more than one Starling instance, be sure to call "makeCurrent()" on the appropriate instance before processing the queue.

Parameters

onProgress:Function — function(ratio:Number):void;

loadRawAsset()method 
protected function loadRawAsset(rawAsset:Object, onProgress:Function, onComplete:Function):void

This method is called internally for each element of the queue when it is loaded. 'rawAsset' is typically either a class (pointing to an embedded asset) or a string (containing the path to a file). For texture data, it will also be called after a context loss.

The method has to transform this object into one of the types that the AssetManager can work with, e.g. a Bitmap, a Sound, XML data, or a ByteArray. This object needs to be passed to the 'onComplete' callback.

The calling method will then process this data accordingly (e.g. a Bitmap will be transformed into a texture). Unknown types will be available via 'getObject()'.

When overriding this method, you can call 'onProgress' with a number between 0 and 1 to update the total queue loading progress.

Parameters

rawAsset:Object
 
onProgress:Function
 
onComplete:Function

log()method 
protected function log(message:String):void

This method is called during loading of assets when 'verbose' is activated. Per default, it traces 'message' to the console.

Parameters

message:String

playSound()method 
public function playSound(name:String, startTime:Number = 0, loops:int = 0, transform:SoundTransform = null):SoundChannel

Generates a new SoundChannel object to play back the sound. This method returns a SoundChannel object, which you can access to stop the sound and to control volume.

Parameters

name:String
 
startTime:Number (default = 0)
 
loops:int (default = 0)
 
transform:SoundTransform (default = null)

Returns
SoundChannel

transformData()method 
protected function transformData(data:ByteArray, url:String):ByteArray

This method is called when raw byte data has been loaded from an URL or a file. Override it to process the downloaded data in some way (e.g. decompression) or to cache it on disk.

It's okay to call one (or more) of the 'add...' methods from here. If the binary data contains multiple objects, this allows you to process all of them at once. Return 'null' to abort processing of the current item.

Parameters

data:ByteArray
 
url:String

Returns
ByteArray
