Plugin Guide

#1 - Download and start server

pip3 install roblox-pyc

roblox-py p

Note: This process will end whenever you restart your computer or close the terminal. We recommend using Replit instead.

If any issues occur here report it in github issues.

#2 - Download client

A download link is in the releases, download the file and place it in your plugins folder.

You can check where your plugins folder is by:

• opening Roblox Studio
• clicking the Plugins folder icon in the top bar
• and clicking "Plugins Folder"

#3 Configuring the client

After installing the client open any place, make a new StringValue anywhere named "ROBLOXPY_CONFIG" with its value being the url and then press the roblox.py/Python icon in the plugins tab.

Note: If you are hosting on a personal computer this step may not be needed because the url is defaulted to localhost:5555

#4 Open studio and test

Open Roblox Studio, and select any location and click the roblox.py/Python icon in the plugins tab. A window for editing the plugin and a new script named "Script.py" should appear in the explorer.

CLI

Download

pip3 install roblox-pyc

Open Directory

cd Desktop/mygame

When called, for every python script roblox-pyc finds it will make a duplicate in the same path with the same name but a .lua ending and with the python code.

Install library

This is how you would install a library:

roblox-py lib shared/roblox-pyc.lua

roblox-{type} lib {path}.lua

Compile files:

If you need to you can run

roblox-py c

roblox-c c

roblox-cpp c

to find all code in lua, delete it and add a file with the same name but of the desired language

This does not compile code, it will return a empty file with the old script as a comment, this is used to convert default Rojo worlds into your desired language.

Start

Simply click enter after running one of the following commands and it will recompile all scripts.

Python:

roblox-py

C:

roblox-c

C++

roblox-cpp
