[Spine extension] How to check if an animation exists on a spine/model?

Questions
#1

Good morning

Is there anyway to check if the spine animation exists on a model / scene?

Thank you for the help

#2

No, there is no API function for this. Wouldn’t you know this as the game designer?

#3

For some use case like fallback animation when an animation is not implement yet.

#4

I suggest you wrap your call with pcall(fn, arg1, arg2)and handle any errors that way.

Thank you for the time to reply

I have tried it but pcall always return true on spine.play_anim, i think no error is thrown when no animation is found

local stat = pcall(function()
  spine.play_anim(node, 'animation-name-test')
end)

// variable stat here is always true

That might be true. I suppose we could let the function return a boolean or add a function to list animations. Please create a feature request.
