According to some, Zerobrane is also a pretty great Lua IDE. Check it out too!

Lua 5.4 constants Anonymous Löver 2023-01-12 (Thu) 17:24:25 No.402 [Reply]
Has anyone here used constants from Lua 5.4 in a real project yet, or not b/c of compatibility with 5.3?
▶
Anonymous Löver 2023-01-14 (Sat) 09:19:22 No.403
never even considered it, but it'd be off the table anyways since i use luajit.

usually i end up getting constants (as far as i'm concerned) anyways from haxe, but then that's not really about lua anymore

When I first saw them I was really happy but I have not used them yet as I would prefer my code to still run on 5.3.

Lua Lapis Postgres Vue deivit24 2022-09-02 (Fri) 06:52:06 No.373 [Reply]
Building a full stack app if anyone is interested to collaborate. I come from a python/javascript background and picked Lua a couple of weeks ago and absolutely love it.

Don't know what to build though but I finally have a good foundation with basic crud functionallity (todo). There is not a lot on how to make Lapis purely for API But I think I got it.

Also, what should the name of this stack be? Also dockerizing everything

join us on the lapis discord if you'd like to talk more about lapis!

lapis is very good at being a json restful api server

I should really learn OOP Elperson 2021-03-11 (Thu) 15:14:05 No.192 [Reply]
Like I look at the source code of this proj and oh wow I better start learning OOP so that my project isnt garbage. Ive heard metatables are hard. Is it true?
▶
Anonymous Löver 2021-03-12 (Fri) 13:03:30 No.193
metatables aren't that hard really and you don't have to think about them for a pretty long time. most of the time even when you do need it you're just setting __call for a constructor and __index to another table though to give you a class prototype

oop is also kinda beside the point though (basic classes != oop) and not correlated with good code (it is correlated with over-engineered bullshit though)

most of the relevant stuff for organizing code is just basic lua syntax sugar, like being able to write function some_table:whatever() and it passes self automatically if you also call with :whatever()

I've been slowly reworking the code to be much cleaner and run off an api so i can support other clients in the future~

probably yes
▶
Anonymous Löver 2018-01-08 (Mon) 14:53:01 No.57
Sure! I just updated it to run in Docker so it shoudl be WAY easier to set up now. I knwo the code is pretty messy, I am hoping to sit down and clean it up now that I have a better understanding of Lapis.

Short term wants is to make the code cleaner and less buggy, long term I want lapchan to run on a RESTful API.
