Edit 10/2017
Here is a new version of the Lua script. It generates the code for Luaotfload, instead of the font feature file, which is not supported anymore. It has also new option --back, which creates mapping in the opposite direction, like from Cyrillic to Latin in our example.
The script is named maptolua.lua:
kpse.set_program_name "luatex"
local lapp = require "lapp-mk4"
local uchar = unicode.utf8.char
local args
local function load_glyph_list(filename)
local t = {}
for line in io.lines(filename) do
local glyph, code = line:match("([^;]+);([A-Fa-f0-9]+)")
if glyph then
code = string.upper(code)
-- print(code, glyph)
t[code] = glyph
end
end
return t
end
local function load_map_file(mapfile, glyph_list)
local glyph_list = glyph_list or {}
local parse_codepoints = function(s)
local t = {}
local s = string.upper(s)
for x in s:gmatch("U%+([0-9A-F]+)") do
t[#t+1] = glyph_list[x] or "undefined"
end
return t
end
local get_chars = function(s)
local t = {}
for x in s:gmatch("U%+([0-9A-F]+)") do
t[#t+1] = string.format('"%s"', uchar(tonumber(x, 16)))
end
return t
end
local t = {liga = {}, gsub = {}, ccmp= {}}
for line in io.lines(mapfile) do
-- search for
local lookup, replace = line:match("([^%<]+)<>([^%;]+)")
if args.back then -- we can create reverse mapping from the map file
lookup, replace = replace, lookup
end
-- process lines which define mappings
if lookup then
-- convert strings with unicode codepoints to tables with glyph names
-- local lookups = parse_codepoints(lookup)
local lookups = get_chars(lookup)
-- local replaces = parse_codepoints(replace)
local replaces = get_chars(replace)
-- print(table.concat(lookups, ";"), "+", table.concat(replaces, ";"))
local newt = {lookups = lookups, replaces = replaces}
if #lookups > 1 then
table.insert(t.liga, newt)
elseif #replaces > 1 then
table.insert(t.ccmp, newt)
else
table.insert(t.gsub, newt)
end
end
end
return t
end
local function print_fea_file(script, language, maptable)
local function print_feature(feature, name, typ, key, value)
-- the field must be only one character long
print("fonts.handlers.otf.addfeature {")
print(string.format("\tname='%s',", name))
print(string.format("\ttype='%s',", typ))
print("\tdata={")
for _, entry in ipairs(maptable[feature]) do
local field = entry[key][1]
local result = entry[value]
if #result > 1 then
local t = {}
for _, s in ipairs(result) do
t[#t+1] = string.format("%s", s)
end
result = "{" .. table.concat(t, ",") .. "}"
else
result = string.format("%s", result[1])
end
print(string.format("[%s] = %s,", field, result))
end
print("}}")
end
-- print(string.format("languagesystem %s %s;", script, language))
print("\\directlua{")
print_feature("liga", "liga", "ligature", "replaces", "lookups")
print_feature("ccmp", "ccmp", "multiple", "lookups", "replaces")
print_feature("gsub", "gsub", "substitution","lookups", "replaces")
print "}"

(Note that it is necessary to use RawFeature=+gsub; in the font declaration)
And this is the result:
@edit added support for replacing one glyph with multiple new ones
LuaTeX doesn't support mapping files, but on the other hand it supports OpenType feature files. There is a major difference between the two, the first one works on character level and with unicode values, the other with glyph names.
I've created simple script for converting the map files to .fea files, maptofea.lua:
kpse.set_program_name "luatex"
local lapp = require "lapp-mk4"
local function load_glyph_list(filename)
local t = {}
for line in io.lines(filename) do
local glyph, code = line:match("([^;]+);([A-Fa-f0-9]+)")
if glyph then
code = string.upper(code)
-- print(code, glyph)
t[code] = glyph
end
end
return t
end
local function load_map_file(mapfile, glyph_list)
local glyph_list = glyph_list or {}
local parse_codepoints = function(s)
local t = {}
local s = string.upper(s)
for x in s:gmatch("U%+([0-9A-F]+)") do
t[#t+1] = glyph_list[x] or "undefined"
end
return t
end
local t = {liga = {}, gsub = {}, ccmp= {}}
for line in io.lines(mapfile) do
-- search for
local lookup, replace = line:match("([^%<]+)<>([^%;]+)")
-- process lines which define mappings
if lookup then
-- convert strings with unicode codepoints to tables with glyph names
local lookups = parse_codepoints(lookup)
local replaces = parse_codepoints(replace)
-- print(table.concat(lookups, ";"), "+", table.concat(replaces, ";"))
local newt = {lookups = lookups, replaces = replaces}
if #lookups > 1 then
table.insert(t.liga, newt)
elseif #replaces > 1 then
table.insert(t.ccmp, newt)
else
table.insert(t.gsub, newt)
end
end
end
return t
end
local function print_fea_file(script, language, maptable)
local function print_feature(feature)
print("feature " .. feature .. " {")
for _, entry in ipairs(maptable[feature]) do

you can just simply use it without any options on a map file:

The method is similar to that one used for Serbian. Prepare the following
cyrillic-to-latin.mapfile:and run it through
teckit_compileto produce the filecyrillic-to-latin.tecfile that should be put in a place where XeTeX can find it. Then a document such as the followingwill give a result similar to the following
The
nohyphenationin thetranslitteratedenvironment definition is necessary as XeTeX doesn't know how to hyphenate translitterated Russian.
