polyfill.lua's Introduction

polyfill.lua

NOTE: While this project is experimental, Issues and Pull-requests are welcome to improve this project!

Brief

Polyfills for Lua and LuaJIT in one file!

polyfill.lua Polyfills Lua modules (Except debug and coroutine) and also provides backward compatibility for old Lua versions!

NOTE: Most modules polyfills requires FFI (Install luaffi or use LuaJIT instead...)

Modules

  • Standard Functions
  • ffi module
  • table module (Including table functions from both Corona SDK/Solar2D and Amulet and working well!)
  • os module
  • math module
  • io module
  • bit module
  • bit32 module
  • string module

NOTE: Check API for list of available polyfills!

Usage

Download polyfill.lua and include it into your project!

local polyfill = require("polyfill")       --> Load the polyfills for Lua

-- Example
print(table.unpack({ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 }))  --> Use table.unpack (If you use LuaJIT this function is polyfilled)

Installing with cherry

You could install polyfill.lua as cherry package!

cherry add Rabios/polyfill.lua D:\cherry-proj

Resources

I got some inspiration from these projects when worked on polyfill.lua on my own!

  1. Lua reference manuals
  2. lua-users wiki
  3. Programming in Lua
  4. davidm/lua-bit-numberlua, Bitwise operators in pure Lua using Lua numbers.
  5. kaeza/lua-bitty, Bitwise operations in pure Lua.
  6. SoniEx2/liolib.lua, JIT-able reimplementation of Lua's I/O library.

NOTE: I didn't copypasted all codes from resources mentioned, Most of them are written by me on my own!
