LGI is gobject-introspection based dynamic Lua binding to GObject based libraries. It allows using GObject-based libraries directly from Lua.

Licensed under MIT-style license, see LICENSE file for full text.

Home of the project is on GitHub.

LGI is tested and compatible with standard Lua 5.1 and Lua 5.2 and recent LuaJIT 2 betas. Compatibility with other Lua implementations is not tested yet.

If you need to support pre-gobject-introspection GTK (ancient GTK+ 2.x releases), use Lua-Gnome.

does it work natively? no idea... but the extracted libs etc are attached,
might need to build the older one...
