Lunar website in progress

[sdphantom]

The first phase of this website is now being worked on, the function detection script. On the first prototype that doesn't recurse through tables yet has returned a few functions that I haven't seen in listed in the Lua documentaton.

The extra functions are here and are supposedly from the Lua core.

• __pow() - Supposedly called by the '^' operator for exponential calculations.
  
• _TRACEBACK() - Unknown
  
• newproxy() - Unknown

<Edit #1>
The second prototype of the auto detect script is coming along well. I had a few disappointments when trying to build a script that would recurse through the tables, but not increase the call stack more than needed (no functions calling themselves).

I couldn't use for loops since the table stack data was constantly changing if a new table was found, same with the next() function.

I had to make my own itteration code with recursive support. What happens is it uses an array as an information stack. A seperate varible determines the stack size (table.getn() was causing problems in one of my other scripts, so I'm not trusting it). The bottom of the stack always points to the _G table (all registered functions are there). Each element of the stack contains a copy of the table being examined, all keys contained in the table, the current key pointer, and the command path (to get the full command instead of just the key name). The script only scans the top element of the stack at any one time. When a table is encountered, the information reguarding scanning that table is pushed on top of the stack. When the current table is finnished beign scanned, it's popped off the stack. When the stack is empty, the script is done.

This phase is now done. I just added path determination and file write commands, everything is done now. The script is done within 30 seconds and generates the following list file on the current version of Lunar.

hmm. Never seen those before.

I better head off to bed, I have a 6hr trip tomorrow. Driving the parents to the airport and back. I HATE driving more than 50 miles away from home, especially the way back alone.

A trap that I planned and compensated for is that Lua has a registration loop. The globals table _G contains an entry that points to itself, so I just told the script to ignore that one entry, lol.

Suprized me. The script ran perfect the first time with only a few minor adjustments. I tried to shortcut the check for the _G table entry the first time and the script ended up skipping everything.

[TinyTerror]

That function list looks good.

[sdphantom]

The DB, list upload, and quick reference are up. All that's left to make is a function details page to post comments and display properties of every function.

I have user login implemented as well, just disabled as of now.

[TinyTerror]

Would it be possible to get bug tracking tickets in also?

[sdphantom]

I can put in bug reporting if that's what you mean by "bug tickets". In the DB, I have a status field for the function to say whether it's broken, unstable, etc as well.

Oh, I whipped this banner image up last night, what do you think about it?

[TinyTerror]

Looks good.

[DarkAquaus]

cool

[sdphantom]

Things are slowing down a bit, The Lunar site has been put on hold until a later time when I'm not swamped with other projects I have at work.

My LSWeb project (Impact LS Website) might be taken down since the LS was absorbed by another. This'll give me some time since I won't be needing to constantly work on new modules for it anymore.

As for the function detection script, I looked into the data debug.getinfo() returns and is doesn't say what arguements are required or what values are returned. Looking at the Lua API, it doesn't really suprise me that this info is missing.

[TinyTerror]

Take your time. Im going to push for a test version of lunar to be released this weekend. It won't be ment for general use, so the docs for it dont need to be that good. Let me know when you get more of a chance to work on this so that I can start adding documentation.
