rust-lua53

Aims to be complete Rust bindings for Lua 5.3 and beyond. Currently, master is tracking Lua 5.3.0-beta.

Requires: - gcc - bash - a Lua 5.3 installation

NOTE: The build process requires Lua 5.3 headers for code generation purposes. If you built and installed normally, these will be located in /usr/local/include in both Linux and Windows MSYS2 environments. In this case, the build script will find them automatically. If for some reason these headers are elsewhere, you will need to export an environment variable called LUA_INCLUDE that points to a directory containing these files.

Using crates.io

Add this to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies] lua = "~0.0.1"

Using git

Add this to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies.lua] git = "https://github.com/jcmoyer/rust-lua53"

Manual

If for some reason you're not using cargo (perhaps in Lua spirit!), you can clone this repository and build it yourself:

git clone https://github.com/jcmoyer/rust-lua53.git cd rust-lua53 chmod +x ./prebuild.sh ./prebuild.sh rustc src/lib.rs

Example

```rust extern crate lua;

fn main() { let mut state = lua::State::new(); state.openlibs(); state.dostring("print('hello world!')"); } ```
