lua-creation-setup

To set up Lua scripting bindings for Irreden Engine creations, you can scaffold a complete integration that generates main_lua.cpp, lua_bindings.hpp/cpp, config.lua, and main.lua files. This provides a ready-made wiring structure to expose components and manage script entry points.

Registering Lua bindings before IREngine::init ensures runtime stability. The setup process applies ordered binding registration to safely expose APIs like IREntity, IRAudio, IRRender, and IRText to Lua scripts prior to the engine fully initializing.

You can bulk register Lua-bound components using the lua_component_pack mechanism. This component-pack approach allows you to expose multiple components to Lua simultaneously, streamlining the registration process during your creation's initialization.

Yes, the Lua setup scaffold includes CMake sync notes to keep runtime scripts updated across builds. This ensures that your config.lua and main.lua files remain synchronized with your CMake build system.

Scaffolding Lua integration generates main_lua.cpp, lua_bindings.hpp, lua_bindings.cpp, lua_component_pack.hpp, config.lua, and main.lua. These template files provide the necessary boilerplate to configure bindings and wire the main Lua entry point.
