• Node Name: Get Project Info
• Category: once_instant
• File: extensions/flowgraph/nodes/util/project.lua

Provides metadata about the current flowgraph project: name, description, file info, associated level, and current graph details.

Key Methods

How It Works

1. Reads id, name, and description from the flowgraph manager.
2. If the project has a saved filename (self.mgr.savedFilename):
   • Sets hasFilename flow to true.
   • Splits the path to extract filename and full filepath.
3. If the project's save directory is inside a level folder:
   • Uses path.levelFromPath() to detect the level.
   • Sets hasLevel flow and outputs the level identifier.
4. Outputs current graph name and ID.

Usage Example

-- Display project info in a debug HUD:
-- [Get Project Info] → name → [Display Text]
--                    → description → [Display Text]

-- Conditionally load resources based on associated level:
-- [Get Project Info] → hasLevel → [Load Level Assets]
--                    → level → [Get Level Path]

-- Check if project has been saved:
-- [Get Project Info] → hasFilename → [Log] "Project saved as: " + filename

Key Dependencies

• self.graph.mgr - reference to the flowgraph manager (id, name, description)
• self.mgr.savedFilename / self.mgr.savedDir - file metadata
• path.splitWithoutExt() - splits a path into directory, filename, and extension
• path.levelFromPath() - extracts a level identifier from a directory path
