The Factorio Library is a set of high-quality, commonly-used utilities for creating Factorio mods.
Download the latest release from the
mod portal unzip it, and put it in your
mods directory. You can access libraries provided by flib with
require("__flib__/position"), etc.
Add the flib directory to your language server's library. We recommend installing the Factorio modding toolkit and setting it up with the Sumneko Lua language server to get cross-mod autocomplete and type checking.
You can view the online documentation here. This documentation is auto-generated by the Lua language server, and is heavily unpolished. It is recommended to use language server intellisense instead of the docs site wherever possible.
