## raylib-lua
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
[LuaJIT](https://luajit.org/)-based binding for [raylib](https://www.raylib.com/), a simple and easy-to-use
|
|
|
|
library to learn videogames programming.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This binding is partially based on [raylib-wren/wray](https://github.com/TSnake41/raylib-wren).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Usage (raylua_s)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
raylua_s is the script-mode binary of raylib-lua.
|
|
|
|
Without any argument, you get into the REPL which gives you a minimal Lua
|
|
|
|
shell that allows you to run Lua code from terminal.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can specify a Lua file as argument to run the specified Lua file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Usage (raylua_e)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
raylua_e is the embedding-mode binary of raylib-lua.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This binary allows you to build standalone raylib applications from Lua code.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There are 3 ways to use it :
|
|
|
|
- zip mode :
|
|
|
|
If you specify a zip file as argument, this zip will be used as payload
|
|
|
|
application, this file expects to have a `main.lua` which is the entry point
|
|
|
|
of the application.
|
|
|
|
- directory mode :
|
|
|
|
Similar to zip mode except that it automatically build the zip payload from
|
|
|
|
the specified directory.
|
|
|
|
- lua mode :
|
|
|
|
Build the executable from a single Lua file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Using `require` in embedded mode works as expected but `dofile` and `loadfile`
|
|
|
|
may not work as expected as these functions load from a external file rather
|
|
|
|
than from `package` loaders.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Building / Updating Raylib / Contribution
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To build raylib-lua from source, you need to take care that git submodules
|
|
|
|
are imported,

|
|
