I'm currently writing an Entity/Component/System architecture game engine in C++, and I have the beginnings of a lua scripting system in place, which seems to be quite popular, but I feel Javascript or Python would be better.

My requirements are:

  • Able to bind C++ function calls to the scripting language.
  • Able to return data to the calling script.
  • Able to support heavily templated libraries, such as glm (optional, but desirable)
  • Must be lightweight.
  • Must have open source license, or similar, with no restrictions on any potential commercial use.

How would I go about doing this, in a similar way to Lua?
