Overview

Simple scripts to cache your components using attributes. You can do it at runtime with some performance issues and in editor without it.

Runtime Example:

Components loaded using [Cached] attribute and you do not want to call GetComponent() on each one.

using UnityEngine;
// Add cache dependency
using UnityCache;

public class CacheExample : MonoBehaviour {
    // This members would be initialized on load
    // Only public members
    [Cached]
    public Transform MyTransform = null;
    // But you can cache hide-in-inspector objects
    [HideInInspector]
    [Cached] 
    public Rigidbody MyRigidbody = null;

    void Awake() {
        // Cache all [Cached] members
        UCache.CacheAll(this);
    }

    void Start () {
        // Now we can use cached items
        var pos = MyTransform.position;
    }

    void FixedUpdate () {
        // Even hidden one
        MyRigidbody.AddForce(Vector3.forward * 10 * Time.fixedDeltaTime);
    }
}

Editor Example:

Components loaded in Editor (before application start) and saved to instance variables.

using UnityEngine;
// Add cache dependency
using UnityCache;

public class PreCacheExample : MonoBehaviour {
  // This members would be cached in scene objects after execute UnityCache/PreCache command in menu
  // Only public members
  [PreCached]
  public Transform MyTransform = null;
  // But you can cache hide-in-inspector objects
  [HideInInspector]
  [PreCached] 
  public Rigidbody MyRigidbody = null;

  void Awake() {
      // No field initialization on load!
  }

  void Start () {
      // Now we can use cached items
      var pos = MyTransform.position;
  }

  void FixedUpdate () {
      // Even hidden one
      MyRigidbody.AddForce(Vector3.forward * 10 * Time.fixedDeltaTime);
  }
}
