Import asset

Questions & Answers

Hi all,

is there any way to catch the object by code after importing an asset?
Even I drag an asset to unity or import it by menu (Asset / Import New Asset…)

Cheers:

You can inherit from [AssetImporter][1] and define the desired function according to the type of the imported asset.

using UnityEngine;
using UnityEditor;

class MyPostprocessor : AssetPostprocessor
{
    static void OnPostprocessAllAssets(string[] importedAssets, string[] deletedAssets, string[] movedAssets, string[] movedFromAssetPaths)
    {
        foreach (string str in importedAssets)
        {
            Debug.Log("Reimported Asset: " + str);
        }
        foreach (string str in deletedAssets)
        {
            Debug.Log("Deleted Asset: " + str);
        }

        for (int i = 0; i < movedAssets.Length; i++)
        {
            Debug.Log("Moved Asset: " + movedAssets _+ " from: " + movedFromAssetPaths*);*_

}
}
void OnPreprocessTexture()
{
if (assetPath.Contains(“_bumpmap”))
{
TextureImporter textureImporter = (TextureImporter)assetImporter;
textureImporter.convertToNormalmap = true;
}
}
}
