love2d-tl

Note that this does not include type definition of bit, FFI, LuaSocket, ENet, and utf8 libraries!

Blacklisted Functions

Lists of function (variants) that are currently blacklisted due to limitations in generate_tl.lua:

• love.audio.getEffect

• love.graphics.setCanvas 5th variant

• World:getCallbacks

• World:getContactFilter

• World:setCallbacks

• love.window.showMessageBox 2nd variant

Usage

You need to cast at various places due to Teal lacking record inheritance (see #4). Example simple usage.

function love.load()
	global myimage = love.graphics.newImage("path/to/image.png")
	local imageW, imageH = (myimage as love.graphics.Texture):getDimensions()
	print("Width", imageW, "Height", imageH)
end

function love.draw()
	love.graphics.draw(myimage as love.graphics.Drawable)
end
