lua-browser-repl

Basic Lua Interpreter that runs in the web browser.

Emscripten is used to compile the Lua source code into WebAssembly.

Compiling

Requires Emscripten's emcc and emmake commands to be in your PATH. Building is as simple as:

make

This will download and build the Lua source if it isn't already built, and then build the web page.

A local development server can be started by running:

npm start

This uses the http-server package to launch an HTTP server at http://127.0.0.1:8080 with ./build as the web root.

Unit tests (using the Mocha runner) can be run with:

npm test

Alternatively they can be run in file-watching mode with:

npm run test:watch

End-to-end tests are implemented using Cypress, which can be run using:

npm run cypress:open
