Welcome to the librime-lua wiki!

Installation

weasel

1. Prepare the compiled file (or the latest artifact in actions).

2. Extract rime-xxxx-Windows.7z/dist/lib/rime.dll file and overwrite it to the rime.dll file under the weasel installation directory.

Usage

1. Create PATH_TO_RIME_USER_DATA_DIR/rime.lua:

   function date_translator(input, seg)
      if (input == "date") then
         --- Candidate(type, start, end, text, comment)
         yield(Candidate("date", seg.start, seg._end, os.date("%Y年%m月%d日"), " 日期"))
      end
   end
   
   function single_char_first_filter(input)
      local l = {}
      for cand in input:iter() do
         if (utf8.len(cand.text) == 1) then
            yield(cand)
         else
            table.insert(l, cand)
         end
      end
      for i, cand in ipairs(l) do
         yield(cand)
      end
   end

2. Reference Lua functions in your schema:

   engine:
     ...
     translators:
       ...
       - lua_translator@date_translator
       - lua_translator@other_lua_function1
       ...
     filters:
       ...
       - lua_filter@single_char_first_filter
       - lua_filter@other_lua_function2

3. Deploy & try

Build

Build dependencies

• librime >= 1.5.0
• LuaJIT 2 / Lua 5.1 / Lua 5.2 / Lua 5.3 / Lua 5.4

Instructions

1. Prepare source code

   Move the source to the plugins directory of librime:

   mv librime-lua $PATH_TO_RIME_SOURCE/plugins/lua

   Or you can use the install-plugins.sh script to automatically fetch librime-lua:

   cd $PATH_TO_RIME_SOURCE
   bash install-plugins.sh hchunhui/librime-lua

2. Install dependencies

   Install development files of Lua:

   # For Debian/Ubuntu:
   sudo apt install liblua5.3-dev   # or libluajit-5.1-dev

   The build system will use pkg-config to search Lua.

   The build system also supports building Lua from source in the thirdparty directory. The thirdparty directory can be downloaded using the following commands:

   cd $PATH_TO_RIME_SOURCE/plugins/lua
   git clone https://github.com/hchunhui/librime-lua.git -b thirdparty --depth=1 thirdparty

3. Build

   Follow the librime's build instructions.

   # On Linux, merged build
   make merged-plugins
   sudo make install
