# Official available libraries
* [autumngmod/cream](https://github.com/autumngmod/cream) - Web based UI (React/Vue/etc) in Garry's Mod
* [autumngmod/logmo](https://github.com/autumngmod/logmo) - Small logger utility library
* [autumngmod/binloader](https://github.com/autumngmod/binloader) - Auto ``DLL`` module loader
* [autumngmod/workyaround](https://github.com/autumngmod/workyaround) - Creates a data/worky folder whose contents are passed to the client anyway, bypassing Garry's Mod's prohibitions on extensions.
# Installation
Download [latest release](https://github.com/autumngmod/libloader/releases/latest/download/libloader_minified.lua), and put it to ``GarrymodDS/garrysmod/lua/autorun/`` (its minified version of ``libloader``)
> [!NOTE]
> Alternatively, you can just download this repository, and install libloader as an addon. This way you can make sure that the code is not modified and does not contain anything dangerous.
# Usage
> [!NOTE]
> You can hide tooltips (hints) by using the ``libloader_showhints 0`` command

# For developers
Your repository should have an addon.json file in GitHub release, and its contents should match [this json schema](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/autumngmod/json/refs/heads/main/addon.scheme.json).
Example:
```json
{
"$schema": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/autumngmod/json/refs/heads/main/addon.scheme.json",
"name": "Addon's name",
"description": "Short description",
"authors": ["author1", "author2"],
"version": "0.1.0",
"githubRepo": "https://github.com/example/repo",
"side": ["server", "client"]
}
```
Also, the library itself should be uploaded to GitHub Release under the name lib.lua.
> [!NOTE]
> Yes, the library itself should be compressed into a single file.
You can do this either manually or [via GitHub Actions like gm-donate/igs](https://github.com/GM-DONATE/IGS).
> [!NOTE]
> GitHub Release should have a name like “v*.*.*.*”, e.g. “v0.1.0”.
