An enhanced Lua parser fork with extended compatibility and scope management features, based on the original lua-parser.

✔️ LuaJ Compatibility - Full support for LuaJ environment
✔️ Universal Compatibility - Removed coroutine dependency for cross-version support (Lua 5.1+)
✔️ Advanced Scope Management - Comprehensive variable scope tracking for safe renaming
✔️ AST Transformation - Enhanced Abstract Syntax Tree with variable resolution capabilities

• Broad Lua Version Support (5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4, LuaJ)
• Detailed AST generation with scope information
• Variable resolution across nested scopes
• Coroutine-free implementation
• Source code pretty-printing
• Zero external dependencies

# Manual installation
git clone https://github.com/viegg69/lua-parser.git
cd lua-parser
make install

local parser = require('parser')
local ast = parser.parse([[
  local x = 10
  function test(y)
    print(x + y)
  end
]])

print(ast)

local renameSettings = {
    Keywords = { "if", "then", "else", "end", "function", "local", "return", "nil", "true", "false" },
    generateName = function(i, scope, originalName)
        return "var_" .. tostring(i)
    end
}

ast:renameVariables(renameSettings)

print(ast:toLua())
