The Aaron's TokenMod API Script. '''TokenMod''' provides an interface to setting almost all changeable properties of a token. [[Players]] can also use it to edit [[tokens]] they control, with option to edit/target other's tokens.
  
 +
It's among the most popular APIs, and is quickly updated every time Roll20 makes new API keys accessible.
  
This script lets you change just about any property of a token from a macro or the chat (Thanks GenKitty for the idea!). You can only change tokens you control (enforced by the ability to select them), unless you are the GM, in which case you can specify token_ids with the --ids command. The same operation is applied to all selected tokens, so it makes batch changes fast and easy.

===Details for --set===
 
Mostly, properties should work like you expect. If it's a color, it takes a color, if it's a number, it takes a number. Any argument with an invalid value is ignored. Here's a few examples that should make things clearer.
 
  
:Turning on name plates for all selected tokens:

'''Commands:''' <code><nowiki>!token-mod <--help|--ignore-selected|--config|--on|--off|--flip|--set> <parameter> [<parameter> ...] ... [ --ids <token id> [<token id> ...]]</nowiki></code>

'''Full user documentation''' can be found in the '''Help: TokenMod'''-Handout in-game, or by running the command '''<code>!token-mod --help</code>'''.
::'''''!token-mod''' --set layer|gmlayer''
+
  
:Turning on aura1 for players, setting it's radius to 35, setting it's color to blue:
+
* {{repo|shdwjk/Roll20API/tree/master/TokenMod TokenMod sourcecode}} - lastest version
::'''''!token-mod''' --on showplayers_aura1 --set aura1_radius|35 aura1_color|0000ff
+
* {{forum|post/4225825/script-update-tokenmod-an-interface-to-adjusting-properties-of-a-token-from-a-macro-or-the-chat-area TokenMod Forum thread}}
''
+
:Setting up 5e style darkvision, moving to the objects layer, flipping the setting on show names, set bar1 to 25, set bar2 to 'Foe':
+
::!'''''token-mod''' --set light_radius|40 light_dimradius|0 layer|objects --flip showname --off light_otherplayers --set bar1_value|25 bar2_value|Foe''
+
  
I've carefully ignored status markers until now. Status markers have a more complicated syntax to allow more flexibility.
+
==Config==
 +
Enable players to target/edit tokens they don't control(is also a button in the config menu):
 +
<pre>!token-mod --config players-can-ids|on
 +
</pre>
  
:Multiple status markers can be set at the same time, this will add the blue, green, red, padlock, and broken-shield status markers.
+
==Examples==
::'''''!token-mod''' --set statusmarkers|blue|green|red|padlock|broken-shield''
+
Some examples of <code>!token-mod</code> commands, with possible explanations. Examples are taken from the forum thread or in-game documentation.
  
:They can also take a number by appending it with a : separator to the end of each status name. (note that the number following the dead status is ignored, as it is special.)
+
<pre style="overflow:auto;" data-language="javascript">
::'''''!token-mod''' --set statusmarkers|blue:0|green:3|red:9|padlock:7|broken-shield:8''
+
::'''''Note''': Numbers are bound between 0 and 9.''
+
  
:You can also remove status markers by prefacing them with a -. This will remove the blue and broken-shield status markers:
+
!token-mod --on showname            // show nameplate
::'''''!token-mod''' --set statusmarkers|-blue|-broken-shield''
+
!token-mod --set layer|gmlayer      // move to gmlayer
 +
!token-mod --set bar1_value|-3      // decrease value of bar 3 by 3
 +
!token-mod --set name|"Sir Thomas" bar1_value|23      //Setting a token's name to "Sir Thomas" and bar1 value to 23
 +
!token-mod --set represents|@{Bob|character_id} defaulttoken      // sets the default token for that character, a quick way to update the default token
 +
!token-mod --set statusmarkers|blue|broken-shield       //adds the 2 status markers to the token
 +
!token-mod --move 3g                // move token 3 grids in the current facing(up being default)
 +
!token-mod --move =90|2u          // moves 2 grids to the right(ignoring current facing)
  
:If you want to completely clear all status markers when you set your new one, you can preface it with a =. Note that this will affect all previously applied status markers, even if you are applying them as part of this same set command. This will set only the red, green, and blue markers:
+
//Various examples
::'''''!token-mod''' --set statusmarkers|=blue|green|red''
+
!token-mod --on showplayers_aura1 --set aura1_radius|35 aura1_color|0000ff //Turning on aura1 for players, setting it's radius to 35, setting it's color to blue
 +
!token-mod --set bar[[1d3]]_value|X statusmarkers|blue:[[1d9]]|green:[[1d9]] name:"[[1t[randomName]]]"    // use inline rolls to set values
 +
!token-mod --set width|25s height|35s    // 's' represent the unit of measurement for the page
 +
!token-mod --set scale|*2
 +

:If you need to just remove all status markers, you can specify the same status marker twice, first with = and second with -:
+
//Sidenumber Multi-sided tokens
::'''''!token-mod''' --set statusmarkers|=blue|-blue''
+
!token-mod --set currentside|2
 +
!token-mod --set currentside|+      //shift side by 1
 +
!token-mod --set currentside|*      //set random side
  
 +
//Controlled by
 +
!token-mod --set controlledby|bob
 +
!token-mod --set controlledby|+susan|+tommy        //add susan & tommy to list
 +
!token-mod --set controlledby|=@{target|token_id}  //copy controlled by from other token
 +
!token-mod --set controlledby|                      //nobody
 +
!token-mod --set controlledby|all                  //all players

* [[API:Script Index]] (partial) list of other APIs
Update v0.6 -- Switched to git and pushed into the Roll20 Official repo as well.

** [[Script:ChatSetAttr]]
Update v0.53 -- You can now toggle status markers on and off by prefacing them with the ! symbol. This will add the Rook piece if it isn't there, but remove it if it is:

** [[Link Token|Link Token to Sheet]]

+
* [[Complete Guide to Rolls & Macros]]

** [[Inline Rolls]]
Adding with a number will set the number if the status was not present, so this would add blue with a value of 3 if it wasn't already there, but clear it if it was:
+
<br>
 
+
<br>
!token-mod --set statusmarkers|!blue:3
+
[[Category:User API Scripts]]
 
+
[[Category:Tokens]]
Adding relative numbers is less useful since they would always be operating on 0 (if the status wasn't there) or not being applied (because the status is being removed if it was there already), but they don't cause an error.
+
 
+
I also expanded the help to show --ids and how to use it for multiple token ids (Thanks John C.), as well as cleaning up a few other points.
+
 
+
Update v0.52 -- Setting Number and Number or Blank can now be decimal. (Thanks Black Falcon)
+
Update v0.51 -- Setting represents now supports character names instead of just character_id. You can use the full name (quoted if it contains spaces) or just a partial name that is unique among your characters. It is not case sensitive, so Max = max = MaX = MAX.
+
 
+
Update v0.5 -- Added delta changes to all reasonable number fields. You can now specify +3 or -2 instead of just a number, even on status numbers:
+
 
+
!token-mod --set statusmarkers|blue:-1 bar1_value|+3
+
 
+
This can be used on any field that is one of: Number, Number or Blank, Degrees, Text, Status
+
Status fields will be bound between 0 or 9, other fields will not be bound.
+
 
+
Also added the ability to set the represents for a token. You need only specify the character_id, probably with @{<character name>|character_id}:
+
 
+
!token-mod --set represents|@{Bob|character_id}
+
 
+
Note that this will clear out any links that bars have currently...
+
 
+
So I've also added setting links for the bars, using the fields bar1_link, bar2_link, bar3_link. You need to specify the name of an attribute on the character the token represents. If you're specifying these in the same command as represents, be sure they are after:
+
 
+
!token-mod --set represents|@{Bob|character_id} bar1_link|npc_HP bar2_link|npc_ac bar3_link|npc_temp_HP
+
 
+
 
+
One final caution: There seems to be a bug with updating a token bar via the API when it is tied to an attribute, such that other tokens that are tied to the same attribute do not get updated. Be sure to leave a comment if you experience that, particularly if you can narrow down the case.
+
 
+
Update v0.4 -- Added --config command for setting configurations. Currently the only config option is players-can-ids which allows players to use the --ids command to target tokens they don't control. Updated documentation to add bar1, bar2, bar3 meta properties, added notes about support for inline rolls in --set.
+
 
+
Turn on players ability to use --ids with:
+
 
+
!token-mod --config players-can-ids|on
+
 
+
Play slots with this:
+
 
+
!token-mod --set statusmarkers|red:[[1d9]]|green:[[1d9]]|blue:[[1d9]]
+
 
+
Set hit points with this (sets both bar2_value and bar2_max to the result of the expression):
+
 
+
!token-mod --set bar2|[[3d8+4]]
+
 
+
 
+
Update v0.32 -- Added expansion of inline rolls and the Meta-Properties bar1, bar2, bar3 which set the _value and _max values to whatever is supplied. (Thanks for the suggestion Leo!)
+
Update v0.31 -- Minor update to fix the issue with HTML special entities.
+
Update v0.3 -- Fixed a bug with --ids (Thanks again James!)
+
Update v0.2 -- Fixed a bug with colors, made the help work for non-GMs. (Thanks James!)
