A Rusty wrapper for Lua.

LucidLua

A Rusty wrapper for Lua. Will clone and compile Lua, then link to it.

Right now a basic version is working, but many data types haven't been implemented.

Include in your app using

llua = {git="https://github.com/ericrobolson/LucidLua"}

With error handling:

llua = {git="https://github.com/ericrobolson/LucidLua", features=["std"]}

Usage

use llua::*;

const CODE: &'static str = "
function my_func()
    print(\"Hello from lua!\")
end
";

fn main() -> Result<(), Error> {
    let mut m = Lua::new();
    m.activate(Library::all())?;
    m.interpret(CODE)?;
    let result: [Data; 0] = m.call("my_func", [])?;
    let expected: [Data; 0] = [];
    assert_eq!(expected, result);

    Ok(())
}

Examples

• cargo run --example global_get will run an example showing how to get a global
• cargo run --example global_set will run an example showing how to set a global
• cargo run --example interpret will run an example showing how to interpret code
• cargo run --example lua_calls_rust will run an example showing how to call Rust code from Lua
• cargo run --example rust_calls_lua_args will run an example showing how to call Lua code from Rust with arguments
• cargo run --example rust_calls_lua will run an example showing how to call Lua code from Rust with no arguments

Roadmap

• Implement rest of data
• Remove todos + panics
