Publishing

Revision as of 20:32, 22 July 2013

This requires the community branch of Maratis and the MScriptExt and MEvent plugins

To add an event to the publish queue in lua: editor.publish_event(event)

"event" can be either a function, or a table containing a "publish" function as follows:

local test_publish_event_function = function()
	print("test publish event function")
end

local test_publish_event_table =
{
	publish = function()
		print("test publish event table")
	end
}

editor.publish_event(test_publish_event_function)
editor.publish_event(test_publish_event_table)

It should be possible to use the standard lua "io" functions to copy any relevant files.

It is also possible to package files into an archive with the following functions:

local pkg = openPackage("package.npk")
packageAddFile(pkg, "specialfile/some.file")
closePackage(pkg)

"package.npk" will be opened within the "published/" directory. Usually this will be named the same as the project. Any files can then be added to the package before closing it.
