- Allow help files to use the ".md" suffix, and move changelog/whatsnew
to use them.
- When files end with ".md", the "help" program attempts to highlight
them. This involves:
- Colour code blocks with a lightGrey background.
- Replace lists to use bullet points instead of "-"/"*".
- Colours headings yellow.
The implementation of this is a bit janky because a) I wrote this and
b) we need to run this step before text wrapping, but preserve
colours and section positions over wrapping (thanks to Jack for
getting this working).
- Add section navigation to the help viewer, with left/right to move to
the next/previous section.
Closes#569
These are largely copied across from Cobalt's test suite, with some
minor tweaks. It actually exposed one bug in Cobalt, which is pretty
nice.
One interesting thing from the coroutine tests, is that Lua 5.4 (and
one assumes 5.2/5.3) doesn't allow yielding from within the error
handler of xpcall - I rather thought it might.
This doesn't add any of the PUC Lua tests yet - I got a little
distracted.
Also:
- Allow skipping "keyword" tests, in the style of busted. This is
implemented on the Java side for now.
- Fix a bug with os.date("%I", _) not being 2 characters wide.
Name a more iconic duo than @SquidDev and over-engineered test
frameworks.
This uses Minecraft's test core[1] plus a home-grown framework to run
tests against computers in-world.
The general idea is:
- Build a structure in game.
- Save the structure to a file. This will be spawned in every time the
test is run.
- Write some code which asserts the structure behaves in a particular
way. This is done in Kotlin (shock, horror), as coroutines give us a
nice way to run asynchronous code while still running on the main
thread.
As with all my testing efforts, I still haven't actually written any
tests! It'd be good to go through some of the historic ones and write
some tests though. Turtle block placing and computer redstone
interactions are probably a good place to start.

Means we can now do fs.combine("a", "b", "c"). Of course, one may just
write "a/b/c" in this case, but it's definitely useful elsewhere.
This is /technically/ a breaking change as fs.combine(a, b:gsub(...))
will no longer function (as gsub returns multiple arguments). However,
I've done a quick search through GH and my Pastebin archives and can't
find any programs which would break. Fingers crossed.
A little dubious, but apparently CC used to support it. This means we're
consistent with methods like io.write or string.len which accept strings
or numbers.
Fixes#591
Control characters become escaped as JSON requires
Non-ASCII characters get escaped as well for better interoperability
We assume here that lua strings represent only first 256 code points of unicode
When dealing with invalid paths (for instance, ones which are too long
or malformed), Java may throw a FileSystemException. This contains the
absolute path (i.e. C:/Users/Moi/.../.minecraft/...), which is printed
to the user within CC - obviously not ideal!
We simply catch this exception within the MountWrapper and map it back
to the local path. The disadvantage of doing it here is that we can't
map the path in the exception back to the computer - we'd need to catch
it in FileMount for that - so we just assume it referrs to the original
path instead.
Doing it in FileMount ends up being a little uglier, as we already do
all the exception wrangling in FileWrapper, so this'll do for now.
Fixes#495
When creating a peripheral or custom Lua object, one must implement two
methods:
- getMethodNames(): String[] - Returns the name of the methods
- callMethod(int, ...): Object[] - Invokes the method using an index in
the above array.
This has a couple of problems:
- It's somewhat unwieldy to use - you need to keep track of array
indices, which leads to ugly code.
- Functions which yield (for instance, those which run on the main
thread) are blocking. This means we need to spawn new threads for
each CC-side yield.
We replace this system with a few changes:
- @LuaFunction annotation: One may annotate a public instance method
with this annotation. This then exposes a peripheral/lua object
method.
Furthermore, this method can accept and return a variety of types,
which often makes functions cleaner (e.g. can return an int rather
than an Object[], and specify and int argument rather than
Object[]).
- MethodResult: Instead of returning an Object[] and having blocking
yields, functions return a MethodResult. This either contains an
immediate return, or an instruction to yield with some continuation
to resume with.
MethodResult is then interpreted by the Lua runtime (i.e. Cobalt),
rather than our weird bodgey hacks before. This means we no longer
spawn new threads when yielding within CC.
- Methods accept IArguments instead of a raw Object array. This has a
few benefits:
- Consistent argument handling - people no longer need to use
ArgumentHelper (as it doesn't exist!), or even be aware of its
existence - you're rather forced into using it.
- More efficient code in some cases. We provide a Cobalt-specific
implementation of IArguments, which avoids the boxing/unboxing when
handling numbers and binary strings.
- cc.pretty.pretty now accepts two additional options:
- function_args: Show function arguments
- function_source: Show where functions are defined.
- Expose the two options as lua.* settings (defaulting function_args to
true, and function_source to false).
These are then used in the Lua REPL.
Closes#361
- Use jacoco for Java-side coverage. Our Java coverage is /terrible
(~10%), as we only really test the core libraries. Still a good thing
to track for regressions though.
- mcfly now tracks Lua side coverage. This works in several stages:
- Replace loadfile to include the whole path
- Add a debug hook which just tracks filename->(lines->count). This
is then submitted to the Java test runner.
- On test completion, we emit a luacov.report.out file.
As the debug hook is inserted by mcfly, this does not include any
computer startup (such as loading apis, or the root of bios.lua),
despite they're executed.
This would be possible to do (for instance, inject a custom header
into bios.lua). However, we're not actually testing any of the
behaviour of startup (aside from "does it not crash"), so I'm not
sure whether to include it or not. Something I'll most likely
re-evaluate.
This functions the same as shell.run, but does not tokenise the
arguments. This allows us to pass command line arguments through to
another program without having to re-quote them.
Closes#417
- The store is now split into two sections:
- A list of possible options, with some metadata about them.
- A list of values which have been changed.
- settings.define can be used to register a new option. We have
migrated all existing options over to use it. This can be used to
define a default value, description, and a type the setting must have
(such as `string` or `boolean).
- settings.{set,unset,clear,load,store} operate using this value list.
This means that only values which have been changed are stored to
disk.
Furthermore, clearing/unsetting will reset to the /default/ value,
rather than removing entirely.
- The set program will now display descriptions.
- settings.{load,save} now default to `.settings` if no path is given.
