PAWN Fiddle
Share & run PAWN code

PAWN Fiddle is a playground platform for the PAWN scripting language. Create, execute, fork and share code snippets across the SA-MP community.

What is this for?
If you need help with your code, you can use this fiddle service instead of posting big code blocks in the forum or discord which isn't really testable. With PAWN Fiddle you can send a complete example of your problem, which makes it easier for the other person to fix your code / help you with the integrated compiler and plugin / include support. This could also be used to demonstrate the use of your plugin / include (provided it's a sampctl-compatible PAWN-package), or snippet hosting.

How do I use this?

Navigate to https://fiddle.sa-mp.dev
Select the dependencies your fiddle needs.
Write / Paste your code.
Check if your code compiles, by clicking the Run button.
Share your fiddle with the world.

Finally! Thank you!

Really, really like the idea!

pawn Code:

#include <a_samp>

main(){}

Code:

[ FATAL ] Line 1: cannot read from file: "a_samp"

Considering it literally uses a SA-MP server instead of a separate PAWN implementation, this isn't a "PAWN Fiddler." It's a SA-MP Gamemode Fiddler.

Also, can't include a_samp.

first of all you need to get sampctl/samp-stdlib library.

This works

That was not my intention. I added a non-affiliation disclaimer on the mainpage (sa-mp.dev).

The "Stop" button is displayed until the max. execution time is reached or the sampctl process dies.

Do you mean RCON commands? Would this be useful?

I guess indentation using space became more popular. This is a default setting of the Monaco-Editor.

This is also a standard feature of the Monaco-Editor. I'll see if I can possibly add autocompletion for natives.

In my opinion an emoji shouldn't be "offputting" from using a tool, especially in a gaming community.

The closest analogy in pure Git would be either cloning or branching, but neither has a one time limit, and I didn't log in to GitHub, so I'm not sure where it is being forked to.

Also, the behaviour without a "fork" is a little annoying, since you can't edit anything. Every other fiddle service allows you to instantly start editing existing code. It doesn't save to the original link, but creates a new one when clicking save. In fact, that would do away with the need for the confusing terminology entirely.

The fork button creates a new identical fiddle, that's all it does.

I really appreciate your extensive feedback. If you have further feature requests or improvements, please open an issue on GitHub.

In recap of my previous comment, I have nothing against this being a Gamemode Fiddler. I just think that name is better in this case. In fact I prefer the idea of having the option to run a SA-MP Gamemode online.

Perhaps you could make some fiddler plugin that allows access to scriptfiles within the site, downloading and viewing them as well. For example what if my fiddler code used y_bitmap to produce a .bmp file that I would like to see, that option would be amazing.

Add information about variations in the code, it will be convenient for development.

Also wondering what version of the compiler?

Re: PAWN Fiddle - Share & run PAWN code online - Chaprnks - 06.04.2019

Very interesting! It reminds me of PAWN playground, but with sampctl support added! Hopefully it\'ll be used often

Re: PAWN Fiddle - Share & run PAWN code online - Yukie - 06.04.2019

wow! very nice

Please disable the check from bots. I can not use your site. After each press of the run button, a check is issued.
