| 1 This file describes some coding styles to try and adhere to when contributing to this project. | |
| 2 Please try to follow, and feel free to fix code you see not following this standard. | |
| 3 | |
| 4 == Indentation == | |
| 5 | |
| 6 1 tab indentation for all blocks | |
| 7 | |
| 8 == Spacing == | |
| 9 | |
| 10 No space between function names and parenthesis and parenthesis and paramters: | |
| 11 | |
| 12 function foo(bar, baz) | |
| 13 | |
| 14 Single space between braces and key/value pairs in table constructors: | |
| 15 | |
| 16 { foo = "bar", bar = "foo" } | |
| 17 | |
| 18 == Local variable naming == | |
| 19 | |
| 20 In this project there are many places where use of globals is restricted, and locals used for faster access. | |
| 21 | |
| 22 Local versions of standard functions should follow the below form: | |
| 23 | |
| 24 math.random -> m_random | |
| 25 string.char -> s_char | |
| 26 | |
| 27 == Miscellaneous == | |
| 28 | |
| 29 Single-statement blocks may be written on one line when short | |
| 30 | |
| 31 if foo then bar(); end | |
| 32 | |
| 33 'do' and 'then' keywords should be placed at the end of the line, and never on a line by themself. |
