Documentation
class FromLuaStack a where Source #
A value that can be read from the Lua stack.
Minimal complete definition
Methods
peek :: StackIndex -> Lua a Source #
Check if at index n there is a convertible Lua value and if so return
it. Throws a LuaException
Instances
class LuaCallFunc a where Source #
Helper class used to make lua functions useable from haskell
Minimal complete definition
Instances
| FromLuaStack a => LuaCallFunc (Lua a) Source # | |
| (ToLuaStack a, LuaCallFunc b) => LuaCallFunc (a -> b) Source # | |
class ToHaskellFunction a where Source #
Operations and functions that can be pushed to the lua stack. This is a
helper function not intended to be used directly. Use the
toHaskellFunction
Minimal complete definition
Methods
toHsFun :: StackIndex -> a -> Lua NumResults Source #
Helper function, called by toHaskellFunction
Instances
| ToHaskellFunction HaskellFunction Source # | |
| ToLuaStack a => ToHaskellFunction (Lua a) Source # | |
| (FromLuaStack a, ToHaskellFunction b) => ToHaskellFunction (a -> b) Source # | |
type HaskellFunction = Lua NumResults Source #
Haskell function that can be called from Lua.
class ToLuaStack a where Source #
A value that can be pushed to the Lua stack.
Minimal complete definition
Methods
Pushes a value onto Lua stack, casting it into meaningfully nearest Lua type.
Instances
type PreCFunction = LuaState -> IO NumResults Source #
Type of raw haskell functions that can be made into CFunctions.
toHaskellFunction :: ToHaskellFunction a => a -> HaskellFunction Source #
Convert a Haskell function to Lua function. Any Haskell function can be converted provided that:
- all arguments are instances of
FromLuaStack - return type is
Lua a, whereais an instance ofToLuaStack
Any Haskell exception will be converted to a string and returned as Lua error.
callFunc :: LuaCallFunc a => String -> a Source #
Call a Lua function. Use as:
v <- callfunc "proc" "abc" (1::Int) (5.0::Double)
freeCFunction :: CFunction -> Lua () Source #
Free function pointer created with newcfunction.
newCFunction :: ToHaskellFunction a => a -> Lua CFunction Source #
Create new foreign Lua function. Function created can be called
by Lua engine. Remeber to free the pointer with freecfunction.
pushHaskellFunction :: ToHaskellFunction a => a -> Lua () Source #
Pushes Haskell function converted to a Lua function. All values created will be garbage collected. Use as:
pushHaskellFunction myfun setglobal "myfun"
You are not allowed to use lua_error anywhere, but
use an error code of (-1) to the same effect. Push
error message as the sole return value.
registerHaskellFunction :: ToHaskellFunction a => String -> a -> Lua () Source #
Imports a Haskell function and registers it at global name.
