If the target system of your application does not make it easy to add the Fennel compiler but has Lua installed, Fennel offers ahead-of-time compilation. You can pass options to the fennel compiler, by using fennel.makeSearcher() instead of archer.īe sure to use the a library and not the file for the entire fennel executable.

searcher ) local mylib = require ( "mylib" ) - will compile and load code in mylib.fnl Local fennel = require ( "fennel" ) table.insert (package.

Add the following lines to your Lua code:.

You can get this from a release tarball or by running make in a source checkout. The Fennel compiler can be added to your code repository, and then loaded from Lua. Embedding the Fennel compiler in a Lua application There are so many ways to distribute your code that we can’t cover them all here please see the wiki page on distribution for details. If the application is more restricted, (for instance, if you can only embed one Lua file into the application and it cannot load further files) then compiling Fennel code to Lua during the build process and including the Lua output in the application may be easier. By embedding the Fennel compiler in an application, users can write their own extension scripts in Fennel to interact with the application, and you can reload during development. Note: Embedding the Fennel compiler in an application is the more flexible option, and is recommended. Embedding Fennel in a program that doesn’t already support Lua is possible but outside the scope of this document. Embedding Fennelįennel code can be embedded inside of applications that support Lua either by including the Fennel compiler inside of the application, or by performing ahead-of-time compilation. See the wiki for a list of packaging systems which offer Fennel.

This method assumes you have Lua 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4, or LuaJIT installed on your system.

From there you can define new functions, key bindings, themes, and even modules, as explained in the manual and the API.īy default, Textadept features modules for its core only, that is ANSI C, Lua and itself, however the AUR package also embeds some of the official modules.

You can edit ~/.textadept/a to start customizing the editor. On first start, Textadept will create a ~/.textadept folder. The curses version runs in a CLI environment.
