bitser-types

Type declarations of bitser, a library helps (de)serialization of Lua values with LuaJIT

NOTE: This Declaration is Designed to be used with TypeScriptToLua, Not Common Typescript

CommandDescription
yarn add -D bitser-typesInstall this declaration
yarn add gvx/bitserInstall bitser

Upon installation this declaration package can be linked to a tsconfig.json file.

{
    "compilerOptions": {
        "types": [
            "bitser-types"
        ]
    }
}

And used anywhere like this:

import * as bitser from "bitser"

let serializedString = bitser.dumps([...some_values])

Make sure to append ";./node_modules/?/?.lua" to your package.path to assist where Lua looks for modules. (for love2d you will need to do this with love.filesystem.setRequirePath)

package.path += ";./node_modules/?/?.lua"

// ... or in love2d (main.ts, conf.ts won't work):

love.filesystem.setRequirePath(love.filesystem.getRequirePath() + ";node_modules/?/?.lua")
