Emmy-lovr-api

A script to generate LÖVR API autocomplete files for EmmyLua.

How to use it

1. Download or clone the LÖVR DOCS into a directory on your computer (if you want the API for an older version, check the "branches" of that repository).
2. Create a directory named api in the directory, do not put any files in there or run anything in it.
3. Download genEmmyAPI.lua from this repository into the same directory (either click on the filename and click "Raw" and save the file, or download or clone repository to your computer and move the file over).
4. Copy init.lua inside of lovr-docs/api/ next to genEmmyAPI.lua
5. Run genEmmyAPI.lua in the directory, i.e. run lua genEmmyAPI.lua in the terminal. This will generate the API autocomplete files in the api folder.
6. Copy the api folder into your project's source folder, the same folder where main.lua is (you can rename it whatever you want, it doesn't have to be called api).

Once you start or refresh your IDE (might be automatic) you should have autocomplete and quick documentation for LÖVR!

Other LÖVR versions

When you want to change the LÖVR version you use, just delete the api folder from your project, and redo the steps above for the appropriate version of the API.
