Lib.rs

Description

This is unofficial Rust bindings for Sciter

Disclaimer

This is a work in progress library and is not yet ready for production use.

Differencies from rust-sciter

• Never panics

• Uses bindgen instead of hand-written code.

• Utilizes Sciter's own functions for windows/application management.

• The primary goal is not to provide a complete Sciter API, but to simplify the interaction between the backend (in Rust) and the frontend (Sciter.JS UI). For example, exporting functions is as easy as:

  #[rsciter::xmod] // mark the module, that's it!
  mod NativeModule {
      pub fn append_log(id: u64, message: &str) { ... }
      pub fn user_name() -> String { ... }
  }
  

  struct StatefullApi {
      state: u64,
  }
  
  #[rsciter::xmod] // or struct impl block
  impl StatefullApi {
      pub fn sum(&self, a: u64, b: u64) -> u64 {
          a + b + self.state
      }
  
      pub fn update(&mut self, a: u64) {
          self.state = a;
      }
  
      pub fn state(&self) -> u64 {
          self.state
      }
  }
