Run Time Compilation #1705

Open thomas992 opened 2 years ago

I think that EGUI needs to have rhai embedded scripting. Debugging with a console, being able to reload files would speed up development time and make a web developer friendly experience. EGUI could be written in EGUI. Would like to know what other people think before continuing.

I doubt we will have official bindings . Whatever solutions we want should be third party.

I already did a small proof of concept once, the main issue was how to deal with lifetimes like Window<'open>, and api which take mutable references ike checkbox bool or text edit strings.

I have moved on to lua for the popularity of the language and speed of luajit. But ofcourse, no wasm for lua yet

Found your code for rhai_egui, I am having trouble compiling it. After updating the Rhai version from 1 to 1.7 and egui, eframe, I have several compile problems. Will start a new project and use yours as a reference thank you. WASM is better than HTML, Rhai works for Web design and game development.

did you make any progress btw? looking for any safe made in rust, for rust language bindings of egui.

i just updated my repo to work online too, so its just a matter of figuring out how to make the bindings as safe as possible. https://coderedart.github.io/rhai_egui/

I have not. You certainly have though it looks amazing. I am going to convert ABOKADO, a Japanese language learning example. I name tech stuff after foreign fruit. http://abokado.herokuapp.com/ I will probably have a repository up in a few days. I am feeling real hype about this one, so I am going to call it Ringo a Japanese apple.
