illuaminate does not handle Java files, for obvious reasons. In order to
get around that, we have a series of stub files within /doc/stub which
mirrored the Java ones. While this works, it has a few problems:
- The link to source code does not work - it just links to the stub
file.
- There's no guarantee that documentation remains consistent with the
Java code. This change found several methods which were incorrectly
documented beforehand.
We now replace this with a custom Java doclet[1], which extracts doc
comments from @LuaFunction annotated methods and generates stub-files
from them. These also contain a @source annotation, which allows us to
correctly link them back to the original Java code.
There's some issues with this which have yet to be fixed. However, I
don't think any of them are major blockers right now:
- The custom doclet relies on Java 9 - I think it's /technically/
possible to do this on Java 8, but the API is significantly uglier.
This means that we need to run javadoc on a separate JVM.
This is possible, and it works locally and on CI, but is definitely
not a nice approach.
- illuaminate now requires the doc stubs to be generated in order for
the linter to pass, which does make running the linter locally much
harder (especially given the above bullet point).
We could notionally include the generated stubs (or at least a cut
down version of them) in the repo, but I'm not 100% sure about that.

This allows for configuring the size of computers and pocket computers,
as well as the max size of monitors.
There's several limitations with the current implementation, but it's
still "good enough" for an initial release:
- Turtles cannot be resized.
- GUIs do not scale themselves, so "large" sizes will not render within
the default resolution.
This exposes a basic peripheral for any tile entity which does not have methods
already registered. We currently provide the following methods:
- Inventories: size, list, getItemMeta, pushItems, pullItems.
- Energy storage: getEnergy, getEnergyCapacity
- Fluid tanks: tanks(), pushFluid, pullFluid.
These methods are currently experimental - it must be enabled through
`experimental.generic_peripherals`. While this is an initial step towards
implementing #452, but is by no means complete.
We never added back replacing of ${version} strings, which means that CC
was reporting incorrect version numbers in _HOST, the user agent and
network versions. This meant we would allow connections even on
mismatched versions (#464).
We shift all version handling into ComputerCraftAPI(Impl) - this now
relies on Forge code, so we don't want to run it in emulators.
It should be release quality in all honesty[^1], but let's leave it a
few days to see if any issues trickle in.
[^1]: Well, aside from upsidedown turtles!
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.
- 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.
- Remove stub for table.pack/table.unpack.
- Remove Lua 5.3 bitlib stub. We're not on 5.3, there's no
point emulating it.
- Change peripheral.call to correctly adjust the error level. This is a
terrible hack, but I believe the only good option.
It'd be good to remove load as well, but it's a little more complex due
to our injecting of _ENV.
Closes#363
See #354
- Remove Lua script to generate recipes/advancements for coloured
disks, turtle upgrades and pocket upgrades. Replacing them with Lua
ones.
- Generate most block drops via the data generator system. Aside from
cables, they all follow one of two templates.
Most of the port is pretty simple. The main problems are regarding
changes to Minecraft's rendering system.
- Remove several rendering tweaks until Forge's compatibility it
brought up-to-date
- Map rendering for pocket computers and printouts
- Item frame rendering for printouts
- Custom block outlines for monitors and cables/wired modems
- Custom breaking progress for cables/wired modems
- Turtle "Dinnerbone" rendering is currently broken, as normals are not
correctly transformed.
- Rewrite FixedWidthFontRenderer to to the buffer in a single sweep.
In order to do this, the term_font now also bundles a "background"
section, which is just a blank region of the screen.
- Render monitors using a VBO instead of a call list. I haven't
compared performance yet, but it manages to render a 6x5 array of
_static_ monitors at almost 60fps, which seems pretty reasonable.
Unfortunately we can't apply the config changes due to backwards
compatibility. This'll be something we may need to PR into Forge.
CraftTweaker support still needs to be added.
This provides the following methods:
- dan200.computercraft.turtle.removeUpgrade(id: String)
- dan200.computercraft.turtle.removeUpgrade(stack: IItemStack)
- dan200.computercraft.turtle.addTool(id: String, craftItem: IItemStack[, toolItem: IItemStack][, kind: string])
While it's pretty minimal, it should allow for a reasonable amount of
functionality.
Closes#327 and #97.
Mostly just rearranging. Bump JUnit version in an attempt to fix test
outputs, but it appears this is a mix of gradle/gradle#5975 and
gradle/gradle#4438.
So very little works, but it compiles and runs.
Things to resolve over the next few days:
- Horrible mappings (should largely be resolved by tomorrow).
- Cannot send extra data over containers - we'll have to see what Forge
does here.
- Turtle models are broken
- No block drops yet - this will largely be cherry-picking whatever I
did on Fabric.
- Weird inventory desyncs (items don't show up initially when
interacting with a CC inventory).
- Probably lots of other things.
- Adds a CheckStyle configuration which is pretty similar to CC's
existing one.
- Add the Gradle license plugin.
- Ensure the existing source code is compatible with these additional
checks.
