Godot API

Okay!! Now let's make a custom Node! ... oh wait, there's no Node2D or Node3D class to extend from?

As the Godot API can change depending on the version, no specific API is packaged with Reflaxe/GDScript. Instead, you need to generate your own Haxe bindings for Godot.

Generating the Bindings

First, install the Haxe Godot Bindings Generator library:

haxelib git godot-api-generator https://github.com/SomeRanDev/Haxe-GodotBindingsGenerator

Next, enter your Haxe source code folder:

cd src

Finally, run this command to generate:

haxelib run godot-api-generator

This will generate all the Godot bindings as .hx Haxe source code files in a local folder named "godot". The files are generated with the expectation they will be in a godot package, so this should be perfect.

Godot Executable Configuration

When you run the command, you will be asked for the path to your Godot engine executable, so be sure to find it first! If you do not want to enter it manually, you can assign it to the GODOT_PATH environment variable before running the command.

Extending from a Node

You can now extend from Node like this:

class MyNode extends godot.Node {
	public override function _ready() {
		trace("MyNode is ready!");
	}
}

Easy Access

If you'd like easy access to all of the Godot API, just import godot.*.

import godot.*;

class MyNode extends Node {
	public override function _ready() {
		trace("MyNode is ready!");
	}
}
