This is the UI Manager and the first thing you want to access.
|
|
Before you can access Basalt, you need to add the following code on top of your file:
|
|
|
|
`local basalt = require("basalt")`
|
|
|
|
require loads the UI Framework into your project.
|
|
|
|
Now you are able to access the following list of methods:
|
|
|
|
| | |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
|[createFrame](objects/Basalt/createFrame.md)|Creates a new base frame
|
|
|[removeFrame](objects/Basalt/removeFrame.md)|Removes a previously created base frame
|
|
|[getFrame](objects/Basalt/getFrame.md)|Returns a frame object by it's id
|
|
|[getActiveFrame](objects/Basalt/getActiveFrame.md)|Returns the currently active base frame
|
|
|[autoUpdate](objects/Basalt/autoUpdate.md)|Starts the event and draw listener
|
|
|[update](objects/Basalt/update.md)|Starts the event and draw listener once
|
|
|[stopUpdate](objects/Basalt/stopUpdate.md)|Stops the currently active event and draw listener
|
|
|[isKeyDown](objects/Basalt/isKeyDown.md)|Returns if the key is held down
|
|
|[debug](objects/Basalt/debug.md)|Writes something into the debug console
|
|
|[log](objects/Basalt/log.md)|Writes something into the log file
|
|
|[setTheme](objects/Basalt/setTheme.md)|Changes the base theme of basalt
|
|
|[setVariable](objects/Basalt/setVariable.md)|Sets a variable which you can access via XML
|
|
|[schedule](objects/Basalt/schedule.md)|Schedules a new task
|
|
|

# Examples
|
|
|
|
Here is a lua example on how to create a empty base frame and start basalt's listener.
|
|
```lua
|
|
local basalt = require("basalt") -- we load the UI Framework into our project
|
|
|
|
local main = basalt.createFrame() -- we create a base frame - on that frame we are able to add object's
|
|
|
|
-- here we would add additional object's
|
|
|
|
basalt.autoUpdate() -- we start listening to incoming events and draw stuff on the screen
|
|
``` |
