lvgl.build¶

lvgl.build([parent, ]params)

Build a complex UI in a single operation from a table of object definitions.

Parameters¶

Name Req Type Description

parent no object optional LVGL object to attach the built objects to; if omitted they attach to the top-level script window

params yes table a table of tables, each defining one LVGL object:

Field	Type	Description
`type`	`string or type constant`	mandatory, selects the kind of object to create, e.g. `"rectangle"` or `lvgl.RECTANGLE`; named type constants (e.g. `lvgl.RECTANGLE`) added in 2.11.4, string names work in all versions
`name`	`string`	optional name used to look up this object in the returned table, defaults to an empty string
`children`	`table`	optional nested table of the same shape, to create child objects

Name	Type	Description
`-`	`table`	named LVGL objects (only entries whose definition included a `name` are included)

Objects can be nested via children, another table of tables using the same shape as the top-level params. @notice Very large or deeply nested tables may fail to compile to .luac -- if a script works from .lua but fails from .luac, split the call into multiple smaller lvgl.build() calls.
