# Sloop

Simple and fast OOP model for Lua.

## Usage

Specify class members by enclosing them in curly braces:

```lua

local Person = Class{

	Say = function(self, phrase)

		print(self.name .. ':', phrase)

	end;

}

```

Instantiate a class instance by calling the class:

```lua

Person():Say('Hello, world!')

```

Specify parent classes by enclosing them in parenthesis before the class body:

```lua

local PersonWhoEatsBagels = Class(Person, BagelEater){}

```

Name a method `Init` to make it a constructor:

```lua

local PersonWhoEatsBagels = Class(Person, BagelEater){ -- Inherits from Person & BagelEater

	Init = function(self, name, bagelCount)

		rawset(self, 'name', name)

		rawset(self, 'bagelCount', bagelCount)

	end;

}

```

Tag methods are detected and handled automatically:

```lua

local Number = Class{

	Init = function(value)

		self.value = value

	end;

	__add = function(op0, op1)

		return op0.value + op1.value

	end;

	__tostring = function(self)

		return tostring(self.value)

	end;

}

print(Number(1) + Number(2)) --> 3

```
