Rostar

Dead simple fully managed Rojo helper for Roblox projects

Description

Rostar is a command-line tool that unpacks/packs Roblox place files (rbxl/rbxlx) into model files and .lua scripts in the filesystem, for use with Rojo. It is useful to both developers that prefer Roblox Studio, but also to Rojo users that would like a fully managed workflow without a hassle.

Some notes on script extraction

This project seems abandoned, but some notes in case a future traveler lands here trying to get a nice unpacking script for lune

Asking to not extract lua extracts the scripts into roblox model files... Not really what I expected 😅
- The best way to actually not extract the lua files, is to keep the flag in true but stub the writeFile function
Empty folders are often confused with code folders, I "fixed" the isCodeTree function, it's slower than it was before (and is now recursive) but it understands better empty folders:

local function isCodeTree(instance: roblox.Instance)
	local toCheck = instance:GetDescendants()
	if #toCheck == 0 then
		return false
	end
	table.insert(toCheck, instance)
	for _, descendant in ipairs(toCheck) do
		-- If this descendant is not a lua script...
		if not isLuaSourceContainer(descendant.ClassName) then
			-- If it's a folder, recurse (unless for some reason we are our own grandfather)
			if descendant.ClassName == "Folder" then
				-- If our child is not a code tree, we are not a code tree :(
				if descendant ~= instance and not isCodeTree(descendant) then
					return false
				end
			else
				return false
			end
		end
	end
	return true
end
