A file directly under addons/<name>/ is a module every script reaches by path, with no require. The Gamend SDK is laid out that way: one module per server feature.

Completion after gamend::lobbies:: listing that module&#39;s functions with their parameters

Modules​

  • addons/kit/math.rn is kit::math. Its functions are called as kit::math::double(2) and its constants read as kit::math::LIMIT.
  • The constants in a pub mod block sit one segment deeper: kit::math::colors::RED.
  • Saving an addon file reaches every script that calls it.
  • Completion and hover walk the path, and show a function's parameters and its doc line.
  • An addon may share a name with an engine module: gamend::lobbies sits beside gamend::login.
  • An exported pack keeps the paths, and a project opened in the editor mounts its own addons.

The Gamend SDK​

  • 259 operations in 47 modules, one per server feature: gamend::lobbies::create_lobby, gamend::users::get_current_user.
  • Realtime events are grouped by channel. gamend::events::lobby::MEMBER_JOINED is what gamend::events::decode answers for a lobby's user_joined.
let reply = task::wait(gamend::lobbies::quick_join(this.node, #{
    "title": "duel", "max_users": 2,
})).await;
