Pretty thin bindings to Lua 5.4.
This crate is still a work-in-progress.
Please check the latest documentation here:
Documentation on docs.rs.
Examples
Creating a Lua "C" library:
use core::ffi::c_int;
use lunka::prelude::*;
unsafe extern "C-unwind" fn l_hello(l: *mut LuaState) -> c_int {
// SAFETY: Caller ensures `l` is valid.
let lua = unsafe { LuaThread::from_ptr(l) };
// SAFETY: An error being raised will not skip any important pieces of code.
let n = unsafe { lua.check_number(1) };
// SAFETY: Ditto.
unsafe { lua.push_string("Hello, world!") };
lua.push_number(n * core::f64::consts::PI as LuaNumber);

}
const LIBRARY: LuaLibrary<1> = lua_library! {
hello: l_hello
};
#[unsafe(no_mangle)]
unsafe extern "C-unwind" fn luaopen_hello(l: *mut LuaState) -> c_int {
// SAFETY: Caller ensures `l` is valid.
let lua = unsafe { LuaThread::from_ptr(l) };
// SAFETY: An error being raised will not skip any important pieces of code.
unsafe { lua.new_lib(&LIBRARY) };
