WattleScript

https://wattlescript.github.io/

WattleScript is a scripting engine written in C# for runtimes supporting .NET Standard 2.0 and newer. (.NET 4.7.2+, .NET Core 3.1+). It is a dual-language environment, providing support for Lua 5.2 code as well as its own language, Wattle.

Using WattleScript is as easy as:

var script = new Script();
script.DoString("print('Hello World!')");

WattleScript is based off the tried and tested MoonSharp project, inheriting its VM design and test suite. The design focuses on easy and fast interop with .NET objects and functions.

Features

  • Wattle scripting language.
  • Lua mode 99% compatible with Lua 5.2, differences documented here.
  • Easily configured sandbox for safe execution of untrusted scripts.
  • Minimal garbage generation at runtime
  • No external dependencies
  • Easy and performant interop with CLR objects, with runtime code generation where supported
  • Source Generator for AOT interop.
  • Support for awaiting on returned values
  • Supports dumping/loading bytecode
  • Support for the complete Lua standard library with very few exceptions (mostly located in the debug module).
  • json module for loading json into tables safely at runtime.
