Release Notes

Usage

Add this to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
discord_game_sdk = "1.0.0-rc.3"

Read up on potential bindgen requirements.

Download the Discord Game SDK and set the following environment variable to where you extracted it:

export DISCORD_GAME_SDK_PATH=/path/to/discord_game_sdk

If you're also planning on using the default link feature, keep reading below.

Features:

`link`

Enabled by default, delegates to discord_game_sdk_sys/link.

Provides functional linking with the caveat that libraries are renamed and some additional set-up is required:

# Linux: prepend with `lib`
cp $DISCORD_GAME_SDK_PATH/lib/x86_64/{,lib}discord_game_sdk.so

# Mac OS: prepend with `lib` and add to library search path
cp $DISCORD_GAME_SDK_PATH/lib/x86_64/{,lib}discord_game_sdk.dylib
export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH:$DISCORD_GAME_SDK_PATH/lib/x86_64

# Windows: change `dll.lib` to `lib` (won't affect library searching)
cp $DISCORD_GAME_SDK_PATH/lib/x86_64/discord_game_sdk.{dll.lib,lib}
cp $DISCORD_GAME_SDK_PATH/lib/x86/discord_game_sdk.{dll.lib,lib}

This allows for cargo run to function.

`image`

Optional crate.

Provides a conversion from our Image to image::RgbaImage.

Safety

This crate relies on the SDK to provide correct data and behavior:

Non-null pointers to valid memory
UTF-8, NUL-terminated strings
No mutation of memory it should have no ownership of
No use of pointers after destroy is called

Some of these are tested when compiled with debug_assertions.

Communication and Support

I can be reached via Discord twiikuu#0047, on the Official Game SDK Server (nicked as ldesgoui (rust wrapper)), as well as twitter and email. I reserve myself no obligation to support you, although I'm generally nice.
