Unity.ts - Interfaces

For the web page, we start by creating a namespace called unitySample. This namespace contains several interfaces and classes. This section covers the interfaces in unitySample.

IGameDataCube

The IGameDataCube interface sorts the information from the game data-stream. We normally catch the data as an array then convert it to this interface to have the information related to the object easily accessible.

name

Name of the object.

leader

Boolean that indicates if the object is the leader.

popularity

Current popularity value of the object.

mat

Current matrix of the object.

selected

Boolean that indicates if the object is selected.

popText

Popularity value converted into a string.

color

Current color of the object.

    // Conversion from Json data into structure for a specific cube
    export interface IGameDataCube {
        name: string;
        popularity: number;
        mat: IUnityMatrix4x4;
        selected?: boolean;
        popText?: string;
        color: IUnityColor;
    }

ICubePopularity

The ICubePopularity interface sorts the information related to the popularity.

name

Name of the object.

popularity

Popularity value of the object.

    // Conversion from Json data into structure for the popularity
    export interface ICubePopularity {
        name: string;
        popularity: number;
    }

ICubePopularities

The ICubePopularities interface sorts the information related to the popularity and places it into an array. We use it when multiple popularity values are available at the same time.

cubes

List of ICubePopularity values.

    // Conversion from Json data into array of structure for the popularity
    export interface ICubePopularities {
        cubes: ICubePopularity[];
    }

IGameData

The IGameData interface sorts the information from the game data. We do this because we send information from the objects and the projection-view matrix at the same time.

cubes

Information about each object that is using the IGameDataCube interface.

MatProjView

The projection view matrix (useful for the WebGL portion).

    // Conversion from Json data into structure for the entire data
    export interface IGameData {
        cubes: IGameDataCube[];
        MatProjView: IUnityMatrix4x4;
        camera: number;
        scene: number;
    }

IGameChangeColorAnnotation

The IGameChangeColorAnnotation interface sorts the information from the annotation sent when a cube color changes.

name

Name of the cube that changed color.

color

New color that was applied to the cube.

    // Conversion from Json data into structure for the entire annotation
    export interface IGameChangeColorAnnotation {
        name: string;
        color: any;
    }

IGameChangeColorAnnotationList

The IGameChangeColorAnnotationList interface sorts the information from the annotation sent when a cube changes color and places it into an array. We use it when multiple color-change values are available at the same time.

colorList

List of IGameChangeColorAnnotation values.

    // Annotation list
    export interface IGameChangeColorAnnotationList {
        colorList: IGameChangeColorAnnotation[];
    }
