Raylib-Beef

raylib-beef is a Beef wrapper library for Raylib 3.7, a simple and easy-to-use library. In combination with the benefits of the Beef programming language, making games is pure satisfaction!

Attention! These bindings are still in development. Bugs may occur.
You can download this library with binaries from the Release page!

OS Support is limited to Windows right now. I am only able test this library on Windows at the moment.

What is done

• Bindings for:
  • raylib.h
  • raymath.h
  • rlgl.h (partly)
  • Easings.h

Important notes

• there are no bindings for text manipulating methods
  • Beef already has custom methods for text manupulation
• rlgl bindings are partly done

TODO:

• Rewrite examples in Beef
• finish rlgl.h bindings

Quick Start (using Beef IDE)

1. Download raylib-beef.zip FROM RELEASE PAGE and extract raylib-beef folder from that zip file to: C:\Program Files\BeefLang\BeefLibs
2. Right-click on your workspace and select Add from Installed and choose raylib-beef

1. Add raylib-beef as a dependency of your project

1. Write some code:
   ```csharp
   using System;
   using static raylib_beef.Raylib;

namespace YOUR_NAMESPACE_HERE
{
class Program
{
public static int Main(String[] args)
{
let text = “Hello from Beef! Hope you have a good day!”;

        SetConfigFlags(.FLAG_WINDOW_RESIZABLE);
        InitWindow(800, 600, "Hello world");
        SetTargetFPS(60);
        while (!WindowShouldClose())
        {
            BeginDrawing();
            ClearBackground(.(52, 52, 52, 255));
            var x = (GetScreenWidth() / 2) - (MeasureText(text, 35) / 2);
            var y = GetScreenHeight() / 2;
            DrawText(text, x, y, 35, .LIGHTGRAY);
            EndDrawing();
        }
        CloseWindow();
        return 0;
    }
}

}
```

1. Profit!

Static linking

By default linking is set to dynamically link to Raylib. You can change that by selecting different raylib-beef project configuration in Workspace settings. You can select from DebugStatic and ReleaseStatic.

Then set your app project build properties to this:

Contribution

I’ll be glad for any reported issues & pull requests

Notes

• any contributions apart from bugfixes need to be placed in src/Extensions
  • this will separate additional helper functions from bindings
  • for example if you want to add some cool method for Vector3, you will create Vector3.bf in src/Extensions/Types and add that cool method to existing Vector3 type by using extensions statement
