Prometheus is a Lua obfuscator written in pure Lua.

This Project was inspired by the amazing javascript-obfuscator.
It can currently obfuscate Lua51 and Roblox's LuaU, however LuaU support is not finished yet.

You can find the full Documentation including a getting started guide here.

Prometheus has an official Discord server.

To install Prometheus, simply clone the Github Repository using:

git clone https://github.com/levno-710/Prometheus.git

Alternatively you can download the Sources here.

Prometheus also Requires LuaJIT or Lua51 in order to work. The Lua51 binaries can be downloaded here.

To quickly obfuscate a script:

lua ./cli.lua --preset Medium ./your_file.lua

For more advanced use cases see the Documentation.

To perform the Prometheus Tests, just run

lua ./tests.lua
