Are there any decent developer tools for Lua?

Question

Lua is a wonderful language and I enjoy writing code in it. I am currently working on a significant project that has a lot of files and code, primarily Lua, and I was wondering if there are any dev tools for Lua?

I am currently using Visual Studio Code and I have Lua syntax highlighting and linting via luacheck, but that is very basic tooling. I am wanting something with project awareness so that if I write a Lua module, my text editor/IDE is immediately aware of that module and can suggest it to me via auto-complete or track inferred data types through code so it can auto-complete module functions, that sort of thing. I know it is a lot more difficult to make such tools for dynamically typed languages so I am wondering it's been done for Lua? I can't seem to find much myself.

I did a quick look on ZeroBrane's feature list but I didn't see anything that stood out to me as "project awareness". Perhaps I am mistaken?

Answer 1

I believe Eclipse has built a specific IDE for Lua, however i'm not sure if this is exactly what you mean. https://www.eclipse.org/ldt/

Answer 2

就我使用Lua的经验而言，我已经担心了将近四年了，在我使用过的任何文本编辑器中，[Notepad ++，VS Code，Atom编辑器，Sublime Text 2]都从未见过这种功能。
