Extra

For ease of use, extra.lua adds some extra tables.

It is required like this:

api = require('love-api.extra')(require('love-api.love_api'))

It makes the following changes:

The objects/functions/callbacks in the "love module" are now in a module like the other modules, named "love".
Table fields which were optional before now contain empty tables (these fields: functions, types, enums, returns, arguments, constructors, supertypes)
Types now have a table of subtypes.
what field is a string saying what the table is, e.g. 'function', 'method', 'argument' etc.
id field is a unique string for each table with a what field.
There are now fields pointing to where a table comes from, e.g. an argument table has the fields module, function_ and variant.
Modules and functions have the fields fullname (e.g. 'love.graphics.newImage') and prefix (e.g. 'love.graphics.')
Functions have an optional field constructs, which points to the type it constructs, and getter and setter which is the corresponding getter/setter to the state the function sets/gets.
api.everything contains every table with a what field.
There are fields with subsets of api.everything, e.g. api.allfunctions (containing functions, methods and callbacks), api.enums, etc.
api.byfullname which is indexed by fullname, and api.byid which is indexed by ID. For example api.byfullname['love.graphics.draw']

Example: function synopsis list

api = require('extra')(require('love-api.love_api'))

table.sort(api.variants, function(a, b) return a.function_.fullname < b.function_.fullname end)

local s = ''

for _, variant in ipairs(api.variants) do
    local function list(t)
        local s = ''

        for i, a in ipairs(t) do
            s = s..a.name

            if a.default then
                s = s..' ['..a.default..']'
            end

            if i ~= #t then
                s = s..', '
            end
        end

        return s
    end

    if #variant.returns > 0 then
        s = s..list(variant.returns)..' = '
    end

    s = s..variant.function_.fullname..'('

    if #variant.arguments > 0 then
        s = s..list(variant.arguments)
    end

    s = s..')\n'
end

print(s)
