Contains a functions to help debug the lua modules.It allows to collect and view the values of several variables and/or points in your lua program, from a module (which is usual) or in several modules (which are required from the main module).
This will add new lines and indentation between table items. If false, format everything on one line. The default is false. tabs: If true, indent with tabs; otherwise, indent with spaces. The default is true. This only has an effect if pretty is true. spaces: The number of spaces to indent with, if tabs is false. The default is 4.
They focus mainly upon what you might find different in Lua. Lua is dynamically typed. There's no static typing at all. From a syntactic point of view, think BASIC (or even COMAL) without line numbers and colons rather than C/C++/Java, Lisp/Scheme, or Forth. There's no begin, but most control structures have an end; for needs a do and if needs ...
Lua patterns deliberately lack the most complex regular expression constructs (to avoid bloating the Lua code base), where many other computer languages or libraries use a more complete set. Lua patterns are not even a subset of regular expressions, as there are also discrepancies, like Lua using the escape character % instead of \, , and ...
Step debugging is a powerful tool that allows you to step through code one line at a time, and hover over variables to see their contents at the time of execution. IDEs that easily support Lua step debugging include ZeroBrane Studio, and IntelliJ IDEA with various debugger plugins (Emmy Lua or Lunalysis).
Demo lines 2 and 3 by Johnuniq above show this effect. Line 4 still has the prefixed space, because by the addition of a character (|), the prefixed space has become an internal space and so is not affected by trimming. {} shows spaces with parameter 1 only because that is the only parameter not #if-ed in code.
While Lua allows the true and false boolean values, wikicode templates can only express boolean values through strings such as "yes", "no", etc. This module processes these kinds of strings and turns them into boolean input for Lua to process. It also returns nil values as nil, to allow for distinctions between nil and false. The module also ...
