This commit does not alter the functionality of lovebird if fennel is not present. Introduced a new function lovebird.loadstringAlt. By default it points to the same function as lovebird.loadstring, but if fennel is not nil it points to a new function described below. loadstringAlt is only used in the "index" page. loadstringAlt If fennel is not nil in the global space, opt to use fennel.compile-string and loadstring in place of raw loadstring If fennel is not nil, always print the result using fennel.view. |

lovebird
A browser-based debug console for the LÖVE framework.
Usage
Drop the lovebird.lua file into an existing project and
place the following line at the top of your love.update()
function:
require("lovebird").update()
The console can then be accessed by opening the following URL in a web browser:
http://127.0.0.1:8000
If you want to access lovebird from another computer then 127.0.0.1
should be
replaced with the IP address of the computer which LÖVE is running on; the IP
address of the other computer should be added to the
lovebird.whitelist table.
Additional Functionality
To make use of additional functionality, the module can be assigned to a variable when it is required:
lovebird = require "lovebird"
Any configuration variables should be set before lovebird.update()
is called.
lovebird.port
The port which lovebird listens for connections on. By default this is 8000
lovebird.whitelist
A table of hosts which lovebird will accept connections from. Any connection
made from a host which is not on the whitelist is logged and closed
immediately. If lovebird.whitelist
is set to nil then all connections are
accepted. The default is { "127.0.0.1" }
. To allow all computers on the
local network access to lovebird, "192.168.*.*"
can be added to this table.
lovebird.wrapprint
Whether lovebird should wrap the print()
function or not. If this is true
then all the calls to print will also be output to lovebird's console. This is
true
by default.
lovebird.echoinput
Whether lovebird should display inputted commands in the console's output
buffer; true
by default.
lovebird.maxlines
The maximum number of lines lovebird should store in its console's output
buffer. By default this is 200
.
lovebird.updateinterval
The interval in seconds that the page's information is updated; this is 0.5
by default.
lovebird.allowhtml
Whether prints should allow HTML. If this is true then any HTML which is
printed will be rendered as HTML; if it false then all HTML is rendered as
text. This is false
by default.
lovebird.print(...)
Prints its arguments to lovebird's console. If lovebird.wrapprint
is set to
true this function is automatically called when print() is called.
lovebird.clear()
Clears the contents of the console, returning it to an empty state.
