Where to find an up-to-date API Documentation

Heridan · #1 10-24-2012, 03:01 PM

Hi Guys.

I'm trying to teach myself how to code little Plugins in Lua but the API to be found on the Wiki seems to outdated. Can anyone show me where to find an up-to-date one or how to create one, if there is any possibility? To me, it would be enough to know which enums / functions / classes exist.

Thanks!
Heridan

There's no up-to-date documentation at the moment.

I wrote a plugin a while ago with which you can browse the global lua environment (where Turbine's API is accessible), it might help:

I have to say that this plugin is a great help.. I actually use it for pretty much every plugin

Is there a way to extract the events too?

Not that I've tried it, but if you got to http://forums.lotro.com/showthread.p...ng-updates/#11 there is a message from moebius92 that details how to extract events.

Not really what I was looking for. You still need to do some trail and error and call methods and see if it was the right one.

But thanx anyway.

I assume that you have already looked at the Stickies over at forums.lotro.com
the Lua Scripting (Beta) forum thread -- about 2/3 of the way down the forums list.

There is also a pretty detailed "how to" by Garen:
Writing LoTRO Lua Plugins for Noobs.

The latest update from Narrel is the thread: Riders of Rohan Lua/Skinning updates. (Narrel is the Dev responsible.)

As far as I know he has not posted an the Riders of Rohan update he mentions, only the skinning update. Therefore the most recent API document is here (lotrointerface) in LotRO Tools & Utilities for Developers - the thread: Isengard Lua API Documentation
