multi Version: 13.1.0 Bug fixes and a few features added (See changes.md)

Found an issue? Please submit it and ill look into it!

My multitasking library for lua. It is a pure lua binding, if you ignore the integrations and the love2d compat. If you find any bugs or have any issues, please let me know . If you don't see a table of contents try using the ReadMe.html file. It is easier to navigate than readme

INSTALLING

Note: The latest version of Lua lanes is required if you want to make use of system threads on lua 5.1+. I will update the dependencies for Lua rocks since this library should work fine on lua 5.1+ You also need the lua-net library and the bin library. all installed automatically using luarocks. however you can do this manually if lanes and luasocket are installed. Links: https://github.com/rayaman/bin https://github.com/rayaman/multi https://github.com/rayaman/net

To install copy the multi folder into your environment and you are good to go
If you want to use the system threads, then you'll need to install lanes! or use luarocks

Because of a codependency in net libaray, if using the networkmanager you will need to install the net library sepertly Going forward I will include a Release zip for love2d. I do not know why I haven't done this yet

luarocks install multi
luarocks install lnet

Planned features/TODO

• Finish Documentation
• Test for unknown bugs -- This is always going on
• Network Parallelism This was fun, I have some more plans for this as well

Usage:

-- Basic usage Alarms: Have been moved to the core of the library require("multi") would work as well
local multi = require("multi") -- gets the entire library
alarm=multi:newAlarm(3) -- in seconds can go to .001 uses the built in os.clock()
alarm:OnRing(function(a)
  print("3 Seconds have passed!")
  a:Reset(n) -- if n were nil it will reset back to 3, or it would reset to n seconds
end)
multi:mainloop() -- the main loop of the program, multi:umanager() exists as well to allow integration in other loops Ex: love2d love.update function. More on this binding in the wiki!
