Additive, backward-compatible. Mirrors was_action_pressed dispatch pattern. Selection-Lib's prev_click_down workaround now obsolete. Engine bindings (was_released + was_mouse_released) added in sporel-engine commit covering P.3.10 Task 1. Removes was_released-edge entry from DEPRECATED-MVP list.

# lib-core.input
|
|
|
|
P.0 action-mapping lib. Decouples physical keys from logical actions.
|
|
Polling-based (`is_action_down`) + edge-based (`was_action_pressed`, `was_action_released`).
|
|
Direction-vector helper composes 4 actions into `{x, y}` ∈ {-1, 0, +1}².
|
|
|
|
- Lib-ID: `lib-core.input`
|
|
- Version: `0.4.0`
|
|
- Spec v0.3.0 (P.3.3): `meta/docs/superpowers/specs/2026-05-12-p3-3-mouse-input-design.md`
|
|
- Spec v0.2.0 (P.2.6): `meta/docs/superpowers/specs/2026-05-11-engine-input-symbolic-keys-design.md`
|
|
- Spec v0.1.0 (P.0): `meta/docs/superpowers/specs/2026-05-09-p0-lib-input-design.md`
|
|
|
|
Forward-compat stubs (DEPRECATED-MVP) for mouse-button actions, gamepad
|
|
bindings, action-context-stack, key-rebinding-config, modifier-combos,
|
|
analog-axis, right-modifier-keys, function-keys,
|
|
special-keys (delete/insert/home/end/pageup/pagedown).
|
|
|
|
## API
|
|
|
|
- `input.bind(action_name, {"keyname1", "keyname2", ...})` — bind multi-key array (string-keys only, see §Key-Names)
|
|
- `input.unbind(action_name)` — remove binding
|
|
- `input.is_action_down(action) → bool` — any bound key currently down
|
|
- `input.was_action_pressed(action) → bool` — any bound key just-pressed (press-edge; true for exactly one frame per key-down event)
|
|
- `input.was_action_released(action) → bool` — any bound key just-released (release-edge; true for exactly one frame per key-up event; triggers once per press-release cycle)
|
|
- `input.direction(left, right, up, down) → {x, y}` — vec in {-1,0,+1}², Y-down-positive
|
|
- `input.action_count() → number` — bound-actions count
|
|
|
|
## Key-Names (v0.2.0)
|
|
|
|
Strict-lowercase. Engine-internal `engine.input.KEY_*` integer-args are rejected.
|
|
|
|
| Category | Names |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| Letters | `a`, `b`, …, `z` |
|
|
| Numbers | `0`, `1`, …, `9` |
|
|
| Arrows | `left`, `right`, `up`, `down` |
|
|
| Whitespace + control | `space`, `tab`, `enter`, `backspace`, `escape` |
|
|
| Modifiers (left-side) | `shift` (= `lshift`), `ctrl` (= `lctrl`), `alt` (= `lalt`) |
|
|
| Console-toggle | `^` (DE: Zirkumflex / US: backtick — Quake/Source-Tradition) |
|
|
|
|
Right-modifier-aliases (`rshift`, `rctrl`, `ralt`) + function-keys (`f1`..`f12`) + special-keys (`delete`, `insert`, …) are **forthcoming** — additiv wenn `engine.input` die entsprechenden `KEY_*`-Konstanten exposed.
|
|
|
|
Unknown key-names raise a Lua-error with hint to this README.
|
|
|
|
## Conventions
|
|
|
|
- Y-down-positive per Sporel pixel-convention (ADR-0031).
|
|
- Multi-key per action (e.g., `{"a", "left"}` for both A and Left-Arrow).
|
|
- Silent-false for undefined actions (debug-friendly; lookup-misuse won't drown the game-loop in errors).
|
|
- Lua `error(...)` for `bind()` misuse (caller-bug fast-fail). Atomic: invalid key fails the entire bind without partial-state mutation.
|
|
|
|
## Consumer pattern
|
|
|
|
```lua
|
|
local input = require("lib-core.input")
|
|
input.bind("quit", { "escape" })
|
|
input.bind("move_left", { "a", "left" })
|
|
input.bind("move_right", { "d", "right" })
|
|
input.bind("move_up", { "w", "up" })
|
|
input.bind("move_down", { "s", "down" })
|
|
|
|
function update(ctx, dt)
|
|
if input.was_action_pressed("quit") then engine.exit(0) end
|
|
local d = input.direction("move_left", "move_right", "move_up", "move_down")
|
|
-- d.x, d.y ∈ {-1, 0, +1}
|
|
end
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Migration v0.1.0 → v0.2.0
|
|
|
|
`bind()` switched from integer `engine.input.KEY_*` arguments to lowercase string-keys (per P.2.6). Reason: stop leaking engine-internal namespace into modules; align with ADR-0001 „engine knows verbs, libs bring nouns".
|
|
|
|
| v0.1.0 | v0.2.0 |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| `bind("quit", { engine.input.KEY_ESCAPE })` | `bind("quit", { "escape" })` |
|
|
| `bind("move", { engine.input.KEY_A, engine.input.KEY_LEFT })` | `bind("move", { "a", "left" })` |
|
|
|
|
`engine.input.KEY_*` constants remain available for direct engine-input use (e.g. `engine.input.is_key_down(engine.input.KEY_F1)` for edge-cases without bind), but `lib-core.input.bind` strict-rejects them.
|
|

|
## CHANGELOG
|
|
|
|
## v0.4.0 (P.3.10, 2026-05-15)
|
|
- Added `was_action_released(action_name)` — release-edge detection per action.
|
|
Selection-Lib's `prev_click_down` workaround promoted.
|
|
- Engine surface: `engine.input.was_released` + `was_mouse_released`.
|
|
|
|
## v0.3.0 (P.3.3, 2026-05-12)
|
|
- `bind()` now accepts unified key+mouse strings via BIND_MAP with kind-tagged entries.
|
|
- Mixed bindings supported (e.g. `{"e", "mouse_left"}`).
|
|
- Backward-compatible with v0.2.0 callsites.
|
|
|
|
## v0.2.0 (P.2.6, 2026-05-11)
|
|
- `bind()` accepts string-key-names only. Integer `engine.input.KEY_*` args are rejected.
