Mark Drew asked on Twitter:
I couldn’t find an out-of-the box way of doing that in blueprints, but it’s not a lot of code to do in C++ which you can then expose to blueprints.
It’s easiest to just make a function, we’ll call it GetAllPopertiesAndValuesOfObject, which returns a TMap<FName, FString> where the map’s keys are the names of the properties.
Simply add these source files to your project. Remember to replace YOURMODULENAME_API with the name of your own module’s name, or just remove it if you only have one module (most smaller projects).
PropertyFunctionLibrary.h
#pragma once
#include "CoreMinimal.h"
#include "Kismet/BlueprintFunctionLibrary.h"
#include "PropertyFunctionLibrary.generated.h"
UCLASS()
class YOURMODULENAME_API UPropertyFunctionLibrary : public UBlueprintFunctionLibrary
{
GENERATED_BODY()
public:
UFUNCTION(BlueprintCallable)
static TMap<FName, FString> GetAllPopertiesAndValuesOfObject(UObject* Object);
};
PropertyFunctionLibrary.cpp
#include "PropertyFunctionLibrary.h"
TMap<FName, FString> UPropertyFunctionLibrary::GetAllPopertiesAndValuesOfObject(UObject* Object)
{
TMap<FName, FString> AllVariables;
if (!IsValid(Object)) return AllVariables;
for (TFieldIterator<FProperty> PropertyIt(Object->GetClass(), EFieldIteratorFlags::ExcludeSuper); PropertyIt; ++PropertyIt)
{
FProperty* Property = *PropertyIt;
// No properties of "Object" type, we only want properties with value data.
if (Property->IsA<FObjectProperty>()) continue;
FString ValueText;
if (Property->ExportText_InContainer(0, ValueText, Object, Object, Object, PPF_None))
{
AllVariables.Add(Property->GetFName(), ValueText);
}
}
return AllVariables;
}
You can then use it like this, for example to print out all the properties and their values of an object:
