Hello all you forum people!
I recently wrote a small rust cdylib that is called from OBS using lua. The library fetches the next challenger on lichess.org.
It is the first time i've used threading in rust.
I would appreciate feedback on the project.
The project is here on github.
Thanks in advance!
I can't give well-funded feedback as I never used the "ffi" library in Lua, but thanks for sharing.
I don't understand what this line does:
obs = obslua
Who (or what) defines obslua at that stage?
Hey no problem.
OBS uses a built in version of LuaJit. When OBS sets up the JIT environment, it creates an object called obslua (or if your creating a python script obspython) which contains various predefined methods that you can use to hook into the OBS internals.
All obs = obslua does is assign obslua to a variable called obs, it just saves 3 letters worth of typing 
.
If you are interested in making script plugins for OBS, you can check out the docs.
