klesun-misc/dota-lua-typedefs

A type definitions .lua file with Dota 2 global variables, classes and functions. Generated from valve's documentation. And the script it was generates with.

This is Lua function/class/constant/vars definition generated from valve's documentation.

Add dota_typedefs.lua file somewhere inside your project and your IDE should start suggesting you completions and "Go To Definition"-s for functions like GameRules:ShowGenericPopup(). But make sure not to actually require this file in your code, cuz it would overwrite global variables.

Tested using IDEA with EmmyLua plugin.

To generate new file, you can go to https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Dota_2_Workshop_Tools/Scripting/API, press F12, paste code from scrap_docs_and_make_typedefs.js. This will output you an array of lines of code. You right-click on it, press "Store as global variable" (in Chrome), then type copy(temp1.join('\n')). This will copy the code into you clipboard. Now you can paste it in a text editor and save the file as dota_typedefs.lua.
