stress [dev]

[xyz]

stress is a jQuery-like library for Minetest. More info/documentation here.
Experimental implementation
Some examples (working ones):

Code: Select all

_("default:dirt"):on("place", function(me)
    me:name("default:dirt_with_grass")
end)

Code: Select all

_({0, 0, 0}, {1, 1, 1}):name("air")

Also see an example mod.

To use stress in your mods just depend on it — add

Code: Select all

stress

to depends.txt

Try not to distribute stress with your mods, instead, link to my github repo.

Great job, xyz! Can be handy to shrink mods.
But is that really necessary? I mean, modders community grew so large, 'cause of Lua being easy to learn. This *stress certainly makes it harder to read any code therefore stopping many peoples from learning it's features and syntax. That may result in *stress being unused by a good part of modders.
On the other hand, a converter to *stress would be great.
Anyway, that just my thoughts, no need to reply.

I was actually trying to make the syntax more simple than bare lua API. Well, it seems I failed at that.

It is simpler but just not for all. Please, keep working on this!
