# raylib-lua-sol
[Lua](http://www.lua.org/) bindings for [raylib](https://www.raylib.com/), a simple and easy-to-use library to enjoy videogames programming, with [sol](https://github.com/ThePhD/sol2) (www.raylib.com)
*raylib-lua-sol* bindings are self-contained in a header-only file: [raylib-lua-sol.hpp](include/raylib-lua-sol.hpp). Just include that file
in your project to allow loading and execution of raylib code written in Lua and Sol.
*raylib-lua-sol* could be useful for prototyping, tools development, graphic applications, embedded systems and education.
Ready to learn? Check out the [code examples](examples)!
## Example
``` lua
local screenWidth = 800
local screenHeight = 450
InitWindow(screenWidth, screenHeight, "raylib [core] example - basic window")
SetTargetFPS(60)
while not WindowShouldClose() do
BeginDrawing()
ClearBackground(RAYWHITE)
DrawText("Congrats! You created your first window!", 190, 200, 20, LIGHTGRAY)
EndDrawing()
end
CloseWindow()
```
## CLI
A [`raylib-lua-sol`](bin/raylib-lua-sol.cpp) CLI launcher is provided. This launcher allows you to run raylib lua programs from command line, or just with *drag & drop* of .lua files into *raylib-lua-sol.exe*.
Note that launcher can also be compiled for other platforms, just need to link with Lua, raylib and sol libraries. For more details, just check comments on sources.
``` bash
bin/raylib-lua-sol examples/core_basic_window.lua
```
## Prebuild On Windows
Require:
- C Compiler: MinGW([Cygwin](https://cygwin.com/install.html),...) or [Visual Studio](https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/).
- [CMake](https://cmake.org/download/).
## Prebuild On GNU Linux
```bash
sudo apt install build-essential git cmake
```
### Unbuntu
```bash
sudo apt install libasound2-dev mesa-common-dev libx11-dev libxrandr-dev libxi-dev xorg-dev libgl1-mesa-dev libglu1-mesa-dev
```
### Fedora
```bash
sudo dnf install alsa-lib-devel mesa-libGL-devel libX11-devel libXrandr-devel libXi-devel libXcursor-devel libXinerama-devel
```
## Build
*raylib-lua-sol* uses cmake as a primary development target. Would appreciate adding more project templates, however.
``` bash
git clone https://github.com/RobLoach/raylib-lua-sol.git
cd raylib-lua-sol
git submodule update --init
cmake -B build .
cmake --build build --config Release
```
## Development
To run tests, use `make test`...
``` bash
cd build
make test
```
