mlua_serde 0.6.0

//! This crate allows you to serialize and deserialize any type that implements
//! `serde::Serialize` and `serde::Deserialize` into/from `mlua::Value`.
//!
//! Implementation is similar to `serde_json::Value`
//!
//! Example usage:
//!
//! ```rust
//! extern crate serde;
//! #[macro_use]
//! extern crate serde_derive;
//! extern crate mlua;
//! extern crate mlua_serde;
//!
//! fn main() {
//!     #[derive(Serialize, Deserialize)]
//!     struct Foo {
//!         bar: u32,
//!         baz: Vec<String>,
//!     }
//!
//!     let lua = mlua::Lua::new();
//!     let foo = Foo {
//!         bar: 42,
//!         baz: vec![String::from("fizz"), String::from("buzz")],
//!     };
//!
//!     let value = mlua_serde::to_value(&lua, &foo).unwrap();
//!     lua.globals().set("value", value).unwrap();
//!     lua.load(
//!         r#"
//!             assert(value["bar"] == 42)
//!             assert(value["baz"][2] == "buzz")
//!         "#).exec().unwrap();
//! }
//! ```
