Node.js Lua Bindings in Rust

This project aims to provide bindings from Lua to Node.js using Rust. It leverages the power of the mlua and napi-rs modules to provide a seamless and efficient interface between the two languages.

Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.

Prerequisites

• Node.js
• Rust
• Napi (More about installing above)

Installation

Clone the repository

git clone https://github.com/cymerous/nodejs_lua_bindings_rs.git

Navigate to the project directory

cd nodejs_lua_bindings_rs

To build the project, it’s necessary to install the Napi dependency. You can do this using one of the following commands:

If you’re using Yarn, run:

yarn global add @napi-rs/cli

If you’re using npm, use this command:

npm install -g @napi-rs/cli

Alternatively, if you’re using pnpm, you can use:

pnpm add -g @napi-rs/cli

Build the project

napi build --platform --release
