Save this as docs.html
Put it in the same folder with docs.zip
Open docs.html with Firefox.
You should be able to view docs.zip without extracting its contents.

I've used Santos's excellent API script to generate a regular expression for a Love2D language definition. Since I thought you guys may find it useful, I've attached the files below.

There were a couple mistakes with API script which I've corrected:

love.graphics.newStencil's name wasn't set to "newStencil" but the full "love.graphics.newStencil".
love.physics.setMeter wasn't present, so I added it manually.

Santos, thank you for the update. I notice couple of things that seem to be incorrect in the most recent file:

Code: Select all

					name = 'pause',
					description = 'Pauses all audio',
					functions = {
						{}, --<-- this one
						{

This section should not have the first "{}," group. This applies to pause, resume, rewind, stop (note that there are two groups, the first one is correct), setColor, and setScissor.

Also, there were several names that have spaces in them, like 'inverse clamped', 'linear clamped', and 'exponent clamped'. Not sure if it was intentional.

The functions that you mention actually have a variant when called with no arguments, for example calling love.audio.pause() will pause all audio, and calling love.graphics.setScissor() will disable the scissor.

Thanks for pointing it out, it made me realise that there was an inconsistency with some other functions which have variants like this, so now the information about what calling these functions without arguments does has been moved into the description of the function.

And the distance model names actually do have spaces in them, I think.

And it's been updated again just now.

Thanks for letting me know what seems out of place, and if you find anything else, please let me know!

And thanks BlackBulletIV for noticing those errors!

Do anyone know if there is(or is there a way to create) offline LÖVE wiki for iOS?

Here's another one page HTML reference. It's... experimental.

For 0.8.0.

Hover over the function names, arguments, and return values for information.

It may not be complete or totally accurate!

generate_love_snippets.lua is a Lua script which generates snipMate (for Vim) snippets from the LÖVE API table.

Hi Santos, do you mind divulging how you generated love_api.lua? Or was that hand-made? I'm using 0.9.0 nightly, and since ZBStudio uses your love_api.lua for autocompletion and calltips, it would be nice to update it.

It was actually hand-made, haha. A whole lot of copy and pasting.

I plan on updating it once 0.9.0 is released, but I might wait until then since the API is changing a bit, and so I can get the information from the wiki, hehe.

Oh wow, thanks for hand-making the files then! And yeah, definitely wait until it is released. There may be some more large changes coming down the pipeline.
