Introduction
-------------
The main menu is defined as a formspec by Lua in builtin/mainmenu/
Description of formspec language to show your menu is in lua_api.txt
Callbacks
---------
core.buttonhandler(fields): called when a button is pressed.
^ fields = {name1 = value1, name2 = value2, ...}
core.event_handler(event)
^ event: "MenuQuit", "KeyEnter", "ExitButton" or "EditBoxEnter"
Gamedata
--------
The "gamedata" table is read when calling core.start(). It should contain:
{
playername = <name>,
password = <password>,
address = <IP/adress>,
port = <port>,
selected_world = <index>, -- 0 for client mode
singleplayer = <true/false>,
playername = <name>,
password = <password>,
address = <IP/adress>,
port = <port>,
selected_world = <index>, -- 0 for client mode
singleplayer = <true/false>,
}
Functions
---------
core.start()
core.close()
core.get_min_supp_proto()
^ returns the minimum supported network protocol version
core.get_max_supp_proto()
^ returns the maximum supported network protocol version
core.open_url(url)
^ opens the URL in a web browser, returns false on failure.
^ Must begin with http:// or https://

HTTP Requests
-------------
* core.download_file(url, target) (possible in async calls)
* url to download, and target to store to
* returns true/false
* `minetest.get_http_api()` (possible in async calls)
* returns `HTTPApiTable` containing http functions.
* The returned table contains the functions `fetch_sync`, `fetch_async` and
`fetch_async_get` described below.
* Function only exists if minetest server was built with cURL support.
* `HTTPApiTable.fetch_sync(HTTPRequest req)`: returns HTTPRequestResult
* Performs given request synchronously
* `HTTPApiTable.fetch_async(HTTPRequest req)`: returns handle
* Performs given request asynchronously and returns handle for
`HTTPApiTable.fetch_async_get`
* `HTTPApiTable.fetch_async_get(handle)`: returns HTTPRequestResult
* Return response data for given asynchronous HTTP request
### `HTTPRequest` definition
Used by `HTTPApiTable.fetch` and `HTTPApiTable.fetch_async`.
{
url = "http://example.org",
timeout = 10,
-- Timeout for connection in seconds. Default is 3 seconds.
post_data = "Raw POST request data string" OR {field1 = "data1", field2 = "data2"},
-- Optional, if specified a POST request with post_data is performed.
-- Accepts both a string and a table. If a table is specified, encodes
-- table as x-www-form-urlencoded key-value pairs.
-- If post_data is not specified, a GET request is performed instead.
user_agent = "ExampleUserAgent",
-- Optional, if specified replaces the default minetest user agent with
-- given string
extra_headers = { "Accept-Language: en-us", "Accept-Charset: utf-8" },
-- Optional, if specified adds additional headers to the HTTP request.
-- You must make sure that the header strings follow HTTP specification
-- ("Key: Value").
multipart = boolean
-- Optional, if true performs a multipart HTTP request.
-- Default is false.
}
### `HTTPRequestResult` definition
Passed to `HTTPApiTable.fetch` callback. Returned by
`HTTPApiTable.fetch_async_get`.
{
completed = true,
-- If true, the request has finished (either succeeded, failed or timed
-- out)
succeeded = true,
-- If true, the request was successful
timeout = false,
-- If true, the request timed out
code = 200,
-- HTTP status code
data = "response"

Limitations of Async operations
-No access to global lua variables, don't even try
-Limited set of available functions
e.g. No access to functions modifying menu like core.start,core.close,
core.show_path_select_dialog

Background music
----------------
The main menu supports background music.
It looks for a `main_menu` sound in `$USER_PATH/sounds`. The same naming
conventions as for normal sounds apply.
