public static class PackageLib.require
extends OneArgFunction
implements com.esotericsoftware.kryo.KryoSerializable

require (modname) Loads the given module. The function starts by looking into the package.loaded table to determine whether modname is already loaded. If it is, then require returns the value stored at package.loaded[modname]. Otherwise, it tries to find a loader for the module. To find a loader, require is guided by the package.searchers sequence. By changing this sequence, we can change how require looks for a module. The following explanation is based on the default configuration for package.searchers. First require queries package.preload[modname]. If it has a value, this value (which should be a function) is the loader. Otherwise require searches for a Lua loader using the path stored in package.path. If that also fails, it searches for a Java loader using the classpath, using the public default constructor, and casting the instance to LuaFunction. Once a loader is found, require calls the loader with two arguments: modname and an extra value dependent on how it got the loader. If the loader came from a file, this extra value is the file name. If the loader is a Java instance of LuaFunction, this extra value is the environment. If the loader returns any non-nil value, require assigns the returned value to package.loaded[modname]. If the loader does not return a non-nil value and has not assigned any value to package.loaded[modname], then require assigns true to this entry. In any case, require returns the final value of package.loaded[modname]. If there is any error loading or running the module, or if it cannot find any loader for the module, then require raises an error.

Method Details

write

public void write(com.esotericsoftware.kryo.Kryo kryo,
 com.esotericsoftware.kryo.io.Output output)

Specified by:

write in interface com.esotericsoftware.kryo.KryoSerializable

Overrides:

write in class LibFunction

read

public void read(com.esotericsoftware.kryo.Kryo kryo,
 com.esotericsoftware.kryo.io.Input input)

Specified by:

read in interface com.esotericsoftware.kryo.KryoSerializable

Overrides:

read in class LibFunction

call

public LuaValue call(LuaValue arg)

Description copied from class: LuaValue

Call this with 1 argument, including metatag processing, and return only the first return value.

If this is a LuaFunction, call it, and return only its first return value, dropping any others. Otherwise, look for the LuaValue.CALL metatag and call that.

If the return value is a Varargs, only the 1st value will be returned. To get multiple values, use LuaValue.invoke() instead.

To call this as a method call, use LuaValue.method(LuaValue) instead.

Specified by:

call in class OneArgFunction

Parameters:

arg - First argument to supply to the called function

Returns:

First return value (this(arg)), or LuaValue.NIL if there were none.
