AssetPackLocation
public AssetPackLocation ()
Public methods
assetsPath
public abstract String assetsPath ()
Returns the file path to the folder containing the pack's assets, if the storage method is
AssetPackStorageMethod.STORAGE_FILES.
The files found at this path should not be modified.
If the storage method is AssetPackStorageMethod.APK_ASSETS, this method will return
null. To access assets from packs installed as APKs, use Asset Manager.
packStorageMethod
public abstract int packStorageMethod ()
Returns whether the pack is installed as an APK or extracted into a folder on the filesystem.
path
public abstract String path ()
Returns the file path to the folder containing the extracted asset pack, if the storage method
is AssetPackStorageMethod.STORAGE_FILES.
The files found at this path should not be modified.
If the storage method is AssetPackStorageMethod.APK_ASSETS, this method will return
null. To access assets from packs installed as APKs, use Asset Manager.
