Get your Unity application to communicate with a Python client.

1. In your Unity project, import unity-plugin/API.unitypackage.
2. Drag the prefab from Assets/Resources/API into the Hierarchy.

1. cd unity-client
2. python setup.py install

1. Start proxy server: python proxy-server/run.py
2. (In separate console) Start the example Python client: python unity-client/examples/echo.py
3. Run your Unity application.

You should see data being printed to the example Python client console.

Wherever you have data in your scripts to send, call API.instance.SetOutput. For example:

API.instance.SetOutput("position.x", transform.position.x);

Wherever you need to read data that you had sent from your Python client, call API.instance.GetInput. For example:

object force = API.instance.GetInput("force");

1. Import Fetcher: from unity_client.fetcher import Fetcher
2. Make an instance of Fetcher: fetcher = Fetcher()
3. In a loop, call fetcher.sync()

You can write to the inputData dictionary on your Fetcher instance. For example:

fetcher.inputData["force"] = force

fetcher.sync() returns an outputData dictionary that contains data sent out from Unity.

Some useful parameters you can adjust:

• On the API prefab:
  • Update Rate - how quickly Unity sends data to the proxy server
  • Run Speed - the rate at which time passes in Unity
  • Server URL - the location of the proxy server (so you can run your application remotely)

1. Open unity-plugin/src as a project in Unity.
2. In the menu bar, select Assets > Export Package.
3. Make sure everything is selected, and click Export.
4. Save to replace the API.unitypackage file.
