About this package

Lua interpreter written entirely in PHP (based on raudius/luar)

Luar

LuaRuntime is a fork of Luar that has been updated for newer versions of PHP (8.4). The most recent release of Luar (v0.1.4) required PHP 8.0 due to constraints in the ANTLR runtime library.

Luar is a Lua interpreter written in PHP.

Luar implements a reduced version of Lua and also packages some essential Lua libraries. As such Luar offers forward-compatibility with Lua with some minor caveats:

• The math/string libraries use PHP number/string handling; much of the edge-case behaviour has not been replicated (e.g. division by zero, integer overflow)
• Not all core functions and libraries are available, but a method is provided to inject your own
• Some language constructs are not implemented (e.g. variable attributes, go-to statements)

Installation

composer require noccylabs/lua-runtime

Usage

For more details read the documentation.

use NoccyLabs\LuaRuntime\Luar;

$luar = new Luar();
$luar->assign('world', 'Moon');
$luar->assign('hello_world', function ($name='world') {
    return "Hello, $name!";
});

$program = '
    local greeting = hello_world(world)
    print(greeting)
    
    return greeting
';

$greeting = $luar->eval($program);
