 # lua-star
+
 Easy A* path finding for Lua
+
+[lua star example screenshot](example/lua-star-01.png)
+
+# Quick Start
+
+Easy to use, it will make you more attractive and you feel sensual doing so.
+
+    local luastar = require("lua-star")
+
+    function positionIsOpenFunc(x, y)
+        -- should return true if the position is open to walk
+        return mymap[x][y] == walkable
+    end
+
+    local path = luastar:find(width, height, start, goal, positionIsOpenFunc, useCache)
+
+`path` will be false if no path was found, otherwise it contains a list of points that travel from `start` to `goal`:
+
+    if path then
+        for _, p in ipairs(path) do
+            print(p.x, p.y)
+        end
+    end
+
+Lua star does not care how your map data is arranged, it simply asks you if the map position at `x,y` is walkable via a callback.
+
+`width` and `height` is your map size.
+
+`start` and `goal` are tables with at least the `x` and `y` keys.
+
+    local start = { x = 1, y = 10 }
+    local goal = { x = 10, y = 1 }
+
+`positionIsOpenFunc(x, y)` is a function that should return true if the position is open to walk.
+
+`useCache` is optional and defaults to `false` when not given. If you have a map that does not change, caching can give a speed boost.
+
+If at any time you need to clear all cached paths;
+
+    luastar:clearCached()
+
+# Requirements
+
+* [Lua 5.x](http://www.lua.org/)
+
+For running unit tests:
+
+* [Lua Rocks](https://luarocks.org/)
+* busted
+
+These commands are for apt-based systems, please adapt to them as needed.
+
+    sudo apt-get install luarocks
+    sudo luarocks install busted
+
+Unit testing is done with busted, the `.busted` config already defines everything, so simply run:
+
+    busted
+
+# Example
+
+There is an [interactive example](example/main.lua) that can be run with [Love](https://love2d.org).
