Struct TableBuilder 

pub struct TableBuilder { /* private fields */ }

Fluent builder for Lua tables.

Collects entries (keyed and/or sequential) and materialises them into a single LuaValue table when build is called.

Implementations

impl TableBuilder

pub fn new() -> Self

Create an empty builder.

pub fn set(self, key: &str, value: LuaValue) -> Self

Add a string-keyed entry.

builder.set("name", LuaValue::from("Alice"))

pub fn set_int(self, key: i64, value: LuaValue) -> Self

Add an integer-keyed entry.

builder.set_int(1, LuaValue::integer(42))

pub fn set_value(self, key: LuaValue, value: LuaValue) -> Self

Add a LuaValue-keyed entry (for non-string, non-integer keys).

pub fn push(self, value: LuaValue) -> Self

Append a value to the sequential (array) part of the table.

Values are assigned keys 1, 2, 3, … in order.

let list = TableBuilder::new()
    .push(LuaValue::integer(10))
    .push(LuaValue::integer(20))
    .push(LuaValue::integer(30))
    .build(&mut vm)?;
// Lua: {10, 20, 30}

pub fn build(self, vm: &mut LuaVM) -> LuaResult<LuaValue>

Materialise the table via the VM.

Trait Implementations

impl Default for TableBuilder

fn default() -> Self

Returns the “default value” for a type.
