2dengine / love.maker Goto Github PK

Current version is on root of project here main.lua located. I suggest it should be possible to make a zip out of a project's sub-directory.

Suggestion example:

love.maker = require("maker.main")
local assetBuild = love.maker.newBuild("assetDir", "txt", "png", "json", "xml")
assetBuild:save("gameasset.zip") -- iterate over "assetDir" and save into a zip.

I managed to get it work without love.maker and directly using zapi:

local zapi = require("maker.main.zapi")
zapi.writeZip("assetDir", "gameasset.zip")

I found these are the problem that cause file not being written on Linux. I managed to get it writing the file by replace these with love.filesystem.

Also zorg said on forum:

As for lua itself, these would be best avoided:
- dofile, loadfile (not loadstring or load), the whole io library, os.remove, os.rename, os.tmpname -> due to the fact that paths can behave differently on different OS-es. one exception: with some editors, to have console output, you need to do io.setvbuf('no').
