LuauLayer (Heavy WIP)

My Motherboard spontaneously combusted but updates soon ig

An abstraction layer for Luau built upon net.hollowcube:luau.

Usage Example

val config = LuauConfig(
    paths = setOf(
        "lualayer/src/test/resources"
    ),
    libs = SyntheticLuauLibs.ALL,  // or use setOf(SyntheticLuauLibs.MISC, SyntheticLuauLibs.FOO) if you want specific libs
    debug = false
)

@LuauFunction(lib = "misc")
fun foo(bool: Boolean): String {
    return "Foo: $bool"
}

@LuauFunction // not specifying a namespace means it will be added to the global namespace
fun fibonacci(n: Int): Int {
    return if (n <= 1) n else fibonacci(n - 1) + fibonacci(n - 2)
}

// can also be defined in a separate (companion) object
object Object {
    @LuauFunction(lib = "veclib")
    fun double(a: Float): Float {
        return a * 2
    }
}

fun main(args: Array<String>) {
    val state = State(config = config)

    runBlocking {
        var count = 0
        tickerFlow(2.seconds)
            .onEach {
                state.callEvent(ChatMessageEvent("Bing bong"))
                if (count++ > 10) {
                    state.lifecycle.value = LifecycleState.STOPPED
                }
            }
            .launchIn(CoroutineScope(SupervisorJob() + Dispatchers.Default))

        state.spawn(true) { thread ->
            val test = """
                          print("Hello from Lua!")
                          function events.chat_message_event(msg)
                            return msg .. " @ " .. os.date("%H:%M:%S")
                          end
                      """.trimIndent()
            val compiled = config.compiler.compile(test)

            val script = thread.load("test.luau", compiled)
            script.run()
        }
    }
}

Feel free to open issues for bug reports or feature requests, but keep in mind that this is mostly a personal project for me to understand the internals of lua/luau.
