luart-node

Facilitates interaction between luart and nodejs by extracting files from https://github.com/samyeyo/LuaRT/releases/ and packaging them as an npm package.

Usage

Install like any other npm package, e.g., npm i -g luart-node.

After installation, the following commands are available:

• luart-node -- utility
• luart -- for running command-line programs
• wluart -- for running windowed programs
• rtc -- for compiling programs

If you need to configure the bin directory in environment variables, its location is node_modules/luart-node/luaRT/bin/.

For programmatic invocation:

// npm i luart-node
const { getPath } = require(`luart-node`)
getPath(`rtc`) // Pass in the command, returns the file path

Command line:

$ luart-node <v|version>
  Show version.
$ luart-node <gen> [vscode]
  Generate vscode configuration.
$ luart-node <c|compile> <path>
  Compile into an exe with all dependencies introduced.
