Unity start function after set a Gameobject active

I want a function like Start() (So it only calls it once) after I set my GameObject active. How can I do this?

Thought doing it within the Update with an if statement so if GameObject is active it will be called. But the problem is it will call it not once.

Use OnEnable() method as it is only called once when the object is enabled:

void OnEnable()
{
    //This will be called when object is enabled.
    Debug.Log("OnEnabled()", gameObject);
}

Update:

OnEnable() is just another Unity method like Start() but its called every time the object activates. watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GPiHgMIqj2E
