MuJS Examples

A stand-alone interpreter

#include <stdio.h>
#include <mujs.h>

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
	char line[256];
	js_State *J = js_newstate(NULL, NULL, JS_STRICT);
	while (fgets(line, sizeof line, stdin))
		js_dostring(J, line);
	js_freestate(J);
}

Hello, world!

#include <stdio.h>
#include <mujs.h>

static void hello(js_State *J)
{
	const char *name = js_tostring(J, 1);
	printf("Hello, %s!\n", name);
	js_pushundefined(J);
}

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
	js_State *J = js_newstate(NULL, NULL, JS_STRICT);

	js_newcfunction(J, hello, "hello", 1);
	js_setglobal(J, "hello");

	js_dostring(J, "hello('world');");

	js_freestate(J);
}

Configuration file

js_dofile(J, "config.lua")

js_getglobal(J, "foo");
foo = js_tonumber(J, -1);
js_pop(J, 1);

Object manipulation

// t = { foo: 42, bar: true }

js_newobject(J);
{
	js_pushnumber(J, 42);
	js_setproperty(J, -2, "foo");
	js_pushboolean(J, 1);
	js_setproperty(J, -2, "bar");
}
js_setglobal(J, "t");

Callbacks from C to JS (by name)

static int call_callback(js_State *J, const char *arg1, int arg2)
{
	int result;

	/* Find the function to call. */
	js_getglobal(J, "my_callback");

	/* Push arguments to function. */
	js_pushnull(J); /* the 'this' object to use */
	js_pushstring(J, arg1);
	js_pushnumber(J, arg2);

	/* Call function and check for exceptions. */
	if (js_pcall(J, 2)) {
		fprintf(stderr, "an exception occurred in the javascript callback\n");
		js_pop(J, 1);
		return -1;
	}

	/* Retrieve return value. */
	result = js_tonumber(J, -1);
	js_pop(J, 1);

	return result;
}

Callbacks from C to JS

const char *handle = NULL; /* handle to stowed away js function */

static void set_callback(js_State *J)
{
	if (handle)
		js_unref(J, handle); /* delete old function */
	js_copy(J, 1);
	handle = js_ref(J); /* stow the js function in the registry */
}

static void call_callback(js_State *J, int arg1, int arg2)
{
	js_getregistry(J, handle); /* retrieve the js function from the registry */
	js_pushnull(J);
	js_pushnumber(J, arg1);
	js_pushnumber(J, arg2);
	js_pcall(J, 2);
	js_pop(J, 1);
}


Complete userdata example

#include <stdio.h>
#include <mujs.h>

#define TAG "File"

static void new_File(js_State *J)
{
	FILE *file;

	if (js_isundefined(J, 1)) {
		file = stdin;
	} else {
		const char *filename = js_tostring(J, 1);
		file = fopen(filename, "r");
		if (!file)
			js_error(J, "cannot open file: '%s'", filename);
	}

	js_currentfunction(J);
	js_getproperty(J, -1, "prototype");
	js_newuserdata(J, TAG, file);
}

static void File_prototype_readByte(js_State *J)
{
	FILE *file = js_touserdata(J, 0, TAG);

	fclose(file);
	js_pushundefined(J);
}

void initfile(js_State *J)
{
	js_getglobal(J, "Object");
	js_getproperty(J, -1, "prototype");	// File.prototype.[[Prototype]] = Object.prototype
	js_newuserdata(J, TAG, stdin);		// File.prototype.[[Userdata]] = stdin
	{
