dnpatch.script

This is the standalone of dnpatch.script and it's main repo. The dnpatch.script.patcher is the runner.

JSON

Create a file called "patcher.json" in the patcher directory. Here is a small example:

{
"target":"Example.exe",
"save":"Example.Scripted.exe",
"targets":[{
"namespace":"Example",
"class":"Program",
"method":"Print",
"action":"empty"
},{
"namespace":"Example",
"class":"Program",
"method":"Main",
"action":"remove",
"indices":[2,3,4,5]
},{
"namespace":"Example",
"class":"Program",
"method":"Main",
"action":"return",
"optional":"true"
},{
"namespace":"Example",
"class":"Program",
"method":"Main",
"action":"remove",
"indices":[2,3,4,5],
"instructions":[{
"opcode":"ldstr",
"operand":"new text"
}]
}]
}

(The above example wont run like that!)

Root attributes:

• "target": the target to patch
• "save": If you're scripting with the standalone, you put here the new filename. If it's the same as the original, it will create a backup.
• "targets": The targets like the Target object in dnpatch. It's an array.

Targets' attributes:

• "namespace": The namespace
• "class": The class
• "method": The method
• "action": The action
• "index": The index to patch (optional)
• "indices": The indices to patch (optional)
• "instructions": The instructions (optional)
• "optional": Optional parameters, like "true"/"false" for action "return" (optional)

List of supported actions:

• "empty": Clear a methodbody
• "replace": Replace the instruction(s) at the given index/indices
• "return": Write true/false as return body and delete everything else, requires "optional" attribute

Create own runners

A script will be loaded within the constructor and if needed with LoadScript();

Scriptscript=newScript("script.json");script.Patch();// apply patchesscript.Save("scripted.exe");// save the file (only if save attribute isn't in the json)
