Level Designer Toolkit (LDtk) is a modern, efficient and open-source 2D level editor with a strong focus on user-friendliness.

This repository aims to make LDtk work as a package that can be invoked from an electron app.

Building from source

Haxe compiler: you need an up-to-date and working Haxe install to build LDtk.
NPM: this package manager is used for various install and packaging scripts. It is packaged with NodeJS.

Open a command line in the ldtk root dir,
Install required Haxe libs:
```
haxe setup.hxml
```
Install Electron locally and other dependencies through NPM (IMPORTANT: you need to be in the app dir):
```
cd app
npm i
```

First, from the root of the repo, build the electron Main:

haxe main.debug.hxml

This should create a app/assets/main.js file.

Then, build the electron Renderer:

haxe renderer.debug.hxml

This should create app/assets/js/renderer.js.

From your electron app, use the following code to invoke LDtk:

const ldtk = require('@nanite-factory-games/ldtk');

let ldtkWindow = new ldtk.ElectronMain();
ldtkWindow.main(null);

We still need to add a way to pass a specific file to open and will customize what settings can be set.
