mlua 0.12.0-rc.1

//! Lua table handling.
//!
//! Tables are Lua's primary data structure, used for arrays, dictionaries, objects, modules,
//! and more. This module provides types for creating and manipulating Lua tables from Rust.
//!
//! # Basic Operations
//!
//! Tables support key-value access similar to Rust's `HashMap`:
//!
//! ```
//! # use mlua::{Lua, Result};
//! # fn main() -> Result<()> {
//! let lua = Lua::new();
//! let table = lua.create_table()?;
//!
//! // Set and get values
//! table.set("key", "value")?;
//! let value: String = table.get("key")?;
//! assert_eq!(value, "value");
//!
//! // Keys and values can be any Lua-compatible type
//! table.set(1, "first")?;
//! table.set("nested", lua.create_table()?)?;
//! # Ok(())
//! # }
//! ```
//!
//! # Array Operations
//!
//! Tables can be used as arrays with 1-based indexing:
//!
//! ```
//! # use mlua::{Lua, Result};
//! # fn main() -> Result<()> {
//! let lua = Lua::new();
//! let array = lua.create_table()?;
//!
//! // Push values to the end (like Vec::push)
//! array.push("first")?;
//! array.push("second")?;
//! array.push("third")?;
//!
//! // Pop from the end
//! let last: String = array.pop()?;
//! assert_eq!(last, "third");
//!
//! // Get length
//! assert_eq!(array.raw_len(), 2);
//! # Ok(())
//! # }
//! ```
//!
//! # Iteration
//!
//! Iterate over all key-value pairs with [`Table::pairs`]:
//!
//! ```
//! # use mlua::{Lua, Result, Value};
//! # fn main() -> Result<()> {
//! let lua = Lua::new();
//! let table = lua.create_table()?;
//! table.set("a", 1)?;
//! table.set("b", 2)?;
//!
//! for pair in table.pairs::<String, i32>() {
//!     let (key, value) = pair?;
//!     println!("{key} = {value}");
//! }
//! # Ok(())
//! # }
//! ```
//!
//! For array portions, use [`Table::sequence_values`]:
//!
//! ```
//! # use mlua::{Lua, Result};
//! # fn main() -> Result<()> {
//! let lua = Lua::new();
//! let array = lua.create_sequence_from(["a", "b", "c"])?;
//!
//! for value in array.sequence_values::<String>() {
//!     println!("{}", value?);
//! }
//! # Ok(())
//! # }
//! ```
//!
//! # Raw vs Normal Access
//!
//! Methods prefixed with `raw_` (like [`Table::raw_get`], [`Table::raw_set`]) bypass
//! metamethods, directly accessing the table's contents. Normal methods may trigger
//! `__index`, `__newindex`, and other metamethods:
//!
//! ```
//! # use mlua::{Lua, Result};
//! # fn main() -> Result<()> {
//! let lua = Lua::new();
//!
//! // raw_set bypasses __newindex metamethod
//! let t = lua.create_table()?;
//! t.raw_set("key", "value")?;
//!
//! // raw_get bypasses __index metamethod
//! let v: String = t.raw_get("key")?;
//! # Ok(())
//! # }
//! ```
//!
//! # Metatables
//!
//! Tables can have metatables that customize their behavior:
//!
//! ```
//! # use mlua::{Lua, Result};
//! # fn main() -> Result<()> {
//! let lua = Lua::new();
//!
//! let table = lua.create_table()?;
//! let metatable = lua.create_table()?;
//!
//! // Set a default value via __index
//! metatable.set("__index", lua.create_function(|_, _: ()| Ok("default"))?)?;
//! table.set_metatable(Some(metatable))?;
//!
//! // Accessing missing keys returns "default"
//! let value: String = table.get("missing")?;
//! assert_eq!(value, "default");
//! # Ok(())
//! # }
//! ```
//!
//! # Global Table
//!
//! The Lua global environment is itself a table, accessible via [`Lua::globals`]:
//!
//! ```
//! # use mlua::{Lua, Result};
//! # fn main() -> Result<()> {
//! let lua = Lua::new();
//! let globals = lua.globals();
//!
//! // Set a global variable
//! globals.set("my_var", 42)?;
//!
//! // Now accessible from Lua code
//! let result: i32 = lua.load("my_var + 8").eval()?;
//! assert_eq!(result, 50);
//! # Ok(())
//! # }
//! ```
//!
