GitHub - godot-rust/book: Documentation and tutorials for gdext, the Rust bindings for Godot 4 (original) (raw)

The godot-rust book

The godot-rust book is a user guide for gdext, the Rust bindings to Godot 4. It covers a large part of the concepts and complements the API docs. There is also gdnative-book for Godot 3.

Local setup

The book is built with mdBook and the plugins mdbook-toc and mdbook-admonish. To install them and build the book locally, you can run:

cargo install mdbook mdbook-toc mdbook-admonish mdbook build

To run a local server with automatic updates while editing the book, use:

Formatting and linting

markdownlint enforces a consistent style across the Markdown files. It is automatically run during CI, but if you have the npm toolchain, you can also run it locally:

npm install --global markdownlint-cli2 ./lint.sh

To fix certain errors directly:

./lint.sh fix

Oxipng

We use oxipng to optimize image file size. You can install it with cargo install oxipng and then run it as follows:

oxipng --strip safe --alpha -r src
