Getting Started with Spells

Registering Your Spellbook​

After setting up your project, you'll need to register your spells with Aurora's spell system. This creates a centralized spellbook for your class that can be easily accessed throughout your code.

-- Create your spells
local NewSpell = Aurora.SpellHandler.NewSpell
Aurora.SpellHandler.PopulateSpellbook({
    spells = {
        AutoAttack = NewSpell(6603),
        Charge = NewSpell(100),
        ShieldSlam = NewSpell(23922),
        Ravager = NewSpell(228920, { radius = 8,}),
    },
    auras = {
        --Add Auras here
    },
    talents = {
        --Add Talents here
    },
}, "WARRIOR",3,"YourNamespace")

The 3 represents the Spec ID, and the "YourNamespace" is the name of your Project.

tip

See the Spell Overview for detailed information about creating and configuring spells.

Accessing Your Spells​

Once registered, you can access your spells from anywhere in your code:

local spells = Aurora.SpellHandler.Spellbooks.warrior["3"].YourNamespace.spells
local auras = Aurora.SpellHandler.Spellbooks.warrior["3"].YourNamespace.auras
local talents = Aurora.SpellHandler.Spellbooks.warrior["3"].YourNamespace.talents

If you would Play a Discipline Priest, you would use the following code:

local spells = Aurora.SpellHandler.Spellbooks.priest["1"].YourNamespace.spells
local auras = Aurora.SpellHandler.Spellbooks.priest["1"].YourNamespace.auras
local talents = Aurora.SpellHandler.Spellbooks.priest["1"].YourNamespace.talents

Best Practices​

  1. Keep Spellbook in Separate File Create a dedicated file (e.g., Spellbook.lua) for your spell definitions:

Next Steps​

Once you have your spellbook set up, you can:

  1. Learn about spell configuration options
  2. Explore available spell methods
  3. Implement your rotation logic using the registered spells
