LÖVE

Hi everyone !

I am doing a project for school, the main purpose of the project is to create a game and save scores on an online database so we can access it throught our website.

We have the game, website and mysql database, the problem is that I have no clue how to connect to my database from love. I found this topic : viewtopic.php?f=4&t=11891&p=71350&hilit=mysql#p71350.

From what I understood I need sth like a mysql.dll . I found one on internet but to be honest I doubt it is something really official... anyway, I just would like to know which files I need before starting to code (any .dll or other), and inside my code how can I start the connection ?
I found something like : Is it correct ?

Thank you for your help .

I've never used this, but it might be a good start:

I forgot to say I found that too, and to be honest I understand nothing about how to install it :/ .

You probably don't want to do this, because you always end up giving the "keys" to your database to the users. Typically, you create a couple of simple web pages that you can then interact with from your application.

Thanks for tip ! Can you tell me which way I could interact with web pages from my game ? Is there a librairy I could use or something ?

See the documentation. It's built into LÖVE, yay!

Exactly what I needed, thanks all .
