Implementations§

Source§

impl Lua

Source

pub fn new() -> Lua

Creates a new Lua state and loads the safe subset of the standard libraries.

§Safety

The created Lua state will have some safety guarantees and will not allow to load unsafe standard libraries or C modules.

See StdLib documentation for a list of unsafe modules that cannot be loaded.

Source

pub unsafe fn unsafe_new() -> Lua

Creates a new Lua state and loads all the standard libraries.

§Safety

The created Lua state will not have safety guarantees and will allow to load C modules.

Source

pub fn new_with(libs: StdLib, options: LuaOptions) -> Result<Lua>

Creates a new Lua state and loads the specified safe subset of the standard libraries.

Use the StdLib flags to specify the libraries you want to load.

§Safety

The created Lua state will have some safety guarantees and will not allow to load unsafe standard libraries or C modules.

See StdLib documentation for a list of unsafe modules that cannot be loaded.

Source

pub unsafe fn unsafe_new_with(libs: StdLib, options: LuaOptions) -> Lua

Creates a new Lua state and loads the specified subset of the standard libraries.

Use the StdLib flags to specify the libraries you want to load.

§Safety

The created Lua state will not have safety guarantees and allow to load C modules.

Source

pub unsafe fn init_from_ptr(state: *mut lua_State) -> Lua

Constructs a new Lua instance from an existing raw state.

Once called, a returned Lua state is cached in the registry and can be retrieved by calling this function again.

Source

pub unsafe fn exec_raw<R: FromLuaMulti>( &self, args: impl IntoLuaMulti, f: impl FnOnce(*mut lua_State), ) -> Result<R>

Calls provided function passing a raw lua state.

The arguments will be pushed onto the stack before calling the function.

This method ensures that the Lua instance is locked while the function is called and restores Lua stack after the function returns.

§Example
let lua = Lua::new();
let n: i32 = unsafe {
    let nums = (3, 4, 5);
    lua.exec_raw(nums, |state| {
        let n = ffi::lua_gettop(state);
        let mut sum = 0;
        for i in 1..=n {
            sum += ffi::lua_tointeger(state, i);
        }
        ffi::lua_pop(state, n);
        ffi::lua_pushinteger(state, sum);
    })
}?;
assert_eq!(n, 12);
Source

pub fn load_std_libs(&self, libs: StdLib) -> Result<()>

Loads the specified subset of the standard libraries into an existing Lua state.

Use the StdLib flags to specify the libraries you want to load.

Source

pub fn load_from_function<T>(&self, modname: &str, func: Function) -> Result<T>
where T: FromLua,

Loads module modname into an existing Lua state using the specified entrypoint function.

Internally calls the Lua function func with the string modname as an argument, sets the call result to package.loaded[modname] and returns copy of the result.

If package.loaded[modname] value is not nil, returns copy of the value without calling the function.

If the function does not return a non-nil value then this method assigns true to package.loaded[modname].

Behavior is similar to Lua’s require function.

Source

pub fn unload(&self, modname: &str) -> Result<()>

Unloads module modname.

Removes module from the package.loaded table which allows to load it again. It does not support unloading binary Lua modules since they are internally cached and can be unloaded only by closing Lua state.

Source

pub fn sandbox(&self, enabled: bool) -> Result<()>

Available on crate feature luau only.

Enables (or disables) sandbox mode on this Lua instance.

This method, in particular:

  • Set all libraries to read-only
  • Set all builtin metatables to read-only
  • Set globals to read-only (and activates safeenv)
  • Setup local environment table that performs writes locally and proxies reads to the global environment.
§Examples
let lua = Lua::new();

lua.sandbox(true)?;
lua.load("var = 123").exec()?;
assert_eq!(lua.globals().get::<u32>("var")?, 123);

// Restore the global environment (clear changes made in sandbox)
lua.sandbox(false)?;
assert_eq!(lua.globals().get::<Option<u32>>("var")?, None);

Requires feature = "luau"

Source

pub fn set_hook<F>(&self, triggers: HookTriggers, callback: F)
where F: Fn(&Lua, Debug<'_>) -> Result<VmState> + MaybeSend + 'static,

Available on non-crate feature luau only.

Sets a hook function that will periodically be called as Lua code executes.

When exactly the hook function is called depends on the contents of the triggers parameter, see HookTriggers for more details.

The provided hook function can error, and this error will be propagated through the Lua code that was executing at the time the hook was triggered. This can be used to implement a limited form of execution limits by setting HookTriggers.every_nth_instruction and erroring once an instruction limit has been reached.

This method sets a hook function for the current thread of this Lua instance. If you want to set a hook function for another thread (coroutine), use Thread::set_hook instead.

Please note you cannot have more than one hook function set at a time for this Lua instance.

§Example

Shows each line number of code being executed by the Lua interpreter.

let lua = Lua::new();
lua.set_hook(HookTriggers::EVERY_LINE, |_lua, debug| {
    println!("line {}", debug.curr_line());
    Ok(VmState::Continue)
});

lua.load(r#"
    local x = 2 + 3
    local y = x * 63
    local z = string.len(x..", "..y)
"#).exec()
Source

pub fn remove_hook(&self)

Available on non-crate feature luau only.

Removes any hook previously set by Lua::set_hook or Thread::set_hook.

This function has no effect if a hook was not previously set.

Source

pub fn set_interrupt<F>(&self, callback: F)
where F: Fn(&Lua) -> Result<VmState> + MaybeSend + 'static,

Available on crate feature luau only.

Sets an interrupt function that will periodically be called by Luau VM.

Any Luau code is guaranteed to call this handler “eventually” (in practice this can happen at any function call or at any loop iteration).

The provided interrupt function can error, and this error will be propagated through the Luau code that was executing at the time the interrupt was triggered. Also this can be used to implement continuous execution limits by instructing Luau VM to yield by returning VmState::Yield.

This is similar to Lua::set_hook but in more simplified form.

§Example

Periodically yield Luau VM to suspend execution.

let lua = Lua::new();
let count = Arc::new(AtomicU64::new(0));
lua.set_interrupt(move |_| {
    if count.fetch_add(1, Ordering::Relaxed) % 2 == 0 {
        return Ok(VmState::Yield);
    }
    Ok(VmState::Continue)
});

let co = lua.create_thread(
    lua.load(r#"
        local b = 0
        for _, x in ipairs({1, 2, 3}) do b += x end
    "#)
    .into_function()?,
)?;
while co.status() == ThreadStatus::Resumable {
    co.resume::<()>(())?;
}
Source

pub fn remove_interrupt(&self)

Available on crate feature luau only.

Removes any interrupt function previously set by set_interrupt.

This function has no effect if an ‘interrupt’ was not previously set.

Source

pub fn set_warning_function<F>(&self, callback: F)
where F: Fn(&Lua, &str, bool) -> Result<()> + MaybeSend + 'static,

Available on crate feature lua54 only.

Sets the warning function to be used by Lua to emit warnings.

Requires feature = "lua54"

Source

pub fn remove_warning_function(&self)

Available on crate feature lua54 only.

Removes warning function previously set by set_warning_function.

This function has no effect if a warning function was not previously set.

Requires feature = "lua54"

Source

pub fn warning(&self, msg: impl AsRef<str>, incomplete: bool)

Available on crate feature lua54 only.

Emits a warning with the given message.

A message in a call with incomplete set to true should be continued in another call to this function.

Requires feature = "lua54"

Source

pub fn inspect_stack(&self, level: usize) -> Option<Debug<'_>>

Gets information about the interpreter runtime stack.

This function returns Debug structure that can be used to get information about the function executing at a given level. Level 0 is the current running function, whereas level n+1 is the function that has called level n (except for tail calls, which do not count in the stack).

Source

pub fn used_memory(&self) -> usize

Returns the amount of memory (in bytes) currently used inside this Lua state.

Source

pub fn set_memory_limit(&self, limit: usize) -> Result<usize>

Sets a memory limit (in bytes) on this Lua state.

Once an allocation occurs that would pass this memory limit, a Error::MemoryError is generated instead. Returns previous limit (zero means no limit).

Does not work in module mode where Lua state is managed externally.

Source

pub fn gc_is_running(&self) -> bool

Returns true if the garbage collector is currently running automatically.

Requires feature = "lua54/lua53/lua52/luau"

Source

pub fn gc_stop(&self)

Stop the Lua GC from running

Source

pub fn gc_restart(&self)

Restarts the Lua GC if it is not running

Source

pub fn gc_collect(&self) -> Result<()>

It may be necessary to call this function twice to collect all currently unreachable objects. Once to finish the current gc cycle, and once to start and finish the next cycle.

Source

pub fn gc_step(&self) -> Result<bool>

Steps the garbage collector one indivisible step.

Returns true if this has finished a collection cycle.

Source

pub fn gc_step_kbytes(&self, kbytes: c_int) -> Result<bool>

Steps the garbage collector as though memory had been allocated.

if kbytes is 0, then this is the same as calling gc_step. Returns true if this step has finished a collection cycle.

Source

pub fn gc_set_pause(&self, pause: c_int) -> c_int

Sets the pause value of the collector.

Returns the previous value of pause. More information can be found in the Lua documentation.

For Luau this parameter sets GC goal

Source

pub fn gc_set_step_multiplier(&self, step_multiplier: c_int) -> c_int

Sets the step multiplier value of the collector.

See Compiler for details and possible options.

Requires feature = "luau"

Source

pub fn enable_jit(&self, enable: bool)

Available on crate feature luau-jit only.

By default JIT is enabled. Changing this option does not have any effect on already loaded functions.

Source

pub fn load<'a>(&self, chunk: impl AsChunk<'a>) -> Chunk<'a>

Returns Lua source code as a Chunk builder type.

In order to actually compile or run the resulting code, you must call Chunk::exec or similar on the returned builder. Code is not even parsed until one of these methods is called.

Source

pub fn create_string(&self, s: impl AsRef<[u8]>) -> Result<String>

Create and return an interned Lua string.

Lua strings can be arbitrary [u8] data including embedded nulls, so in addition to &str and &String, you can also pass plain &[u8] here.

Source

pub fn create_buffer(&self, buf: impl AsRef<[u8]>) -> Result<Buffer>

Available on crate feature luau only.

Create and return a Luau buffer object from a byte slice of data.

Requires feature = "luau"

Source

pub fn create_table(&self) -> Result<Table>

Creates and returns a new empty table.

Source

pub fn create_table_with_capacity( &self, narr: usize, nrec: usize, ) -> Result<Table>

Creates and returns a new empty table, with the specified capacity.

  • narr is a hint for how many elements the table will have as a sequence.
  • nrec is a hint for how many other elements the table will have.

Lua may use these hints to preallocate memory for the new table.

Source

pub fn create_table_from<K, V>( &self, iter: impl IntoIterator<Item = (K, V)>, ) -> Result<Table>
where K: IntoLua, V: IntoLua,

Creates a table and fills it with values from an iterator.

Source

pub fn create_sequence_from<T>( &self, iter: impl IntoIterator<Item = T>, ) -> Result<Table>
where T: IntoLua,

Creates a table from an iterator of values, using 1.. as the keys.

Source

pub fn create_function<F, A, R>(&self, func: F) -> Result<Function>
where F: Fn(&Lua, A) -> Result<R> + MaybeSend + 'static, A: FromLuaMulti, R: IntoLuaMulti,

Wraps a Rust function or closure, creating a callable Lua function handle to it.

The function’s return value is always a Result: If the function returns Err, the error is raised as a Lua error, which can be caught using (x)pcall or bubble up to the Rust code that invoked the Lua code. This allows using the ? operator to propagate errors through intermediate Lua code.

If the function returns Ok, the contained value will be converted to one or more Lua values. For details on Rust-to-Lua conversions, refer to the IntoLua and IntoLuaMulti traits.

§Examples

Create a function which prints its argument:

let greet = lua.create_function(|_, name: String| {
    println!("Hello, {}!", name);
    Ok(())
});

Use tuples to accept multiple arguments:

let print_person = lua.create_function(|_, (name, age): (String, u8)| {
    println!("{} is {} years old!", name, age);
    Ok(())
});
Source

pub fn create_function_mut<F, A, R>(&self, func: F) -> Result<Function>
where F: FnMut(&Lua, A) -> Result<R> + MaybeSend + 'static, A: FromLuaMulti, R: IntoLuaMulti,

Wraps a Rust mutable closure, creating a callable Lua function handle to it.

This is a version of Lua::create_function that accepts a FnMut argument.

Source

pub unsafe fn create_c_function(&self, func: lua_CFunction) -> Result<Function>

Wraps a C function, creating a callable Lua function handle to it.

§Safety

This function is unsafe because provides a way to execute unsafe C function.

Source

pub fn create_async_function<F, A, FR, R>(&self, func: F) -> Result<Function>
where F: Fn(Lua, A) -> FR + MaybeSend + 'static, A: FromLuaMulti, FR: Future<Output = Result<R>> + MaybeSend + 'static, R: IntoLuaMulti,

Available on crate feature async only.

Wraps a Rust async function or closure, creating a callable Lua function handle to it.

While executing the function Rust will poll the Future and if the result is not ready, call yield() passing internal representation of a Poll::Pending value.

The function must be called inside Lua coroutine (Thread) to be able to suspend its execution. An executor should be used to poll AsyncThread and mlua will take a provided Waker in that case. Otherwise noop waker will be used if try to call the function outside of Rust executors.

The family of call_async() functions takes care about creating Thread.

Requires feature = "async"

§Examples

Non blocking sleep:

use std::time::Duration;
use mlua::{Lua, Result};

async fn sleep(_lua: Lua, n: u64) -> Result<&'static str> {
    tokio::time::sleep(Duration::from_millis(n)).await;
    Ok("done")
}

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<()> {
    let lua = Lua::new();
    lua.globals().set("sleep", lua.create_async_function(sleep)?)?;
    let res: String = lua.load("return sleep(...)").call_async(100).await?; // Sleep 100ms
    assert_eq!(res, "done");
    Ok(())
}
Source

pub fn create_thread(&self, func: Function) -> Result<Thread>

pub fn create_ser_userdata<T>(&self, data: T) -> Result<AnyUserData>
where T: UserData + Serialize + MaybeSend + 'static,

Available on crate feature serialize only.

Requires feature = "serialize"

Source

pub fn create_any_userdata<T>(&self, data: T) -> Result<AnyUserData>
where T: MaybeSend + 'static,

Creates a Lua userdata object from a custom Rust type.

You can register the type using Lua::register_userdata_type to add fields or methods before calling this method. Otherwise, the userdata object will have an empty metatable.

All userdata instances of the same type T shares the same metatable.

Source

pub fn create_ser_any_userdata<T>(&self, data: T) -> Result<AnyUserData>
where T: Serialize + MaybeSend + 'static,

Available on crate feature serialize only.

Creates a Lua userdata object from a custom serializable Rust type.

Requires feature = "serialize"

Source

pub fn register_userdata_type<T: 'static>( &self, f: impl FnOnce(&mut UserDataRegistry<T>), ) -> Result<()>

Registers a custom Rust type in Lua to use in userdata objects.

This methods provides a way to add fields or methods to userdata objects of a type T.

Source

pub fn create_proxy<T>(&self) -> Result<AnyUserData>
where T: UserData + 'static,

Create a Lua userdata “proxy” object from a custom userdata type.

Proxy object is an empty userdata object that has T metatable attached. The main purpose of this object is to provide access to static fields and functions without creating an instance of type T.

You can get or set uservalues on this object but you cannot borrow any Rust type.

§Examples
struct MyUserData(i32);

impl UserData for MyUserData {
    fn add_fields<F: UserDataFields<Self>>(fields: &mut F) {
        fields.add_field_method_get("val", |_, this| Ok(this.0));
    }

    fn add_methods<M: UserDataMethods<Self>>(methods: &mut M) {
        methods.add_function("new", |_, value: i32| Ok(MyUserData(value)));
    }
}

lua.globals().set("MyUserData", lua.create_proxy::<MyUserData>()?)?;

lua.load("assert(MyUserData.new(321).val == 321)").exec()?;
Source

pub fn set_type_metatable<T: LuaType>(&self, metatable: Option<Table>)

Sets the metatable for a Lua builtin type.

The metatable will be shared by all values of the given type.

§Examples

Change metatable for Lua boolean type:

let mt = lua.create_table()?;
mt.set("__tostring", lua.create_function(|_, b: bool| Ok(if b { "2" } else { "0" }))?)?;
lua.set_type_metatable::<bool>(Some(mt));
lua.load("assert(tostring(true) == '2')").exec()?;
Source

pub fn globals(&self) -> Table

Returns a handle to the global environment.

Source

pub fn current_thread(&self) -> Thread

Returns a handle to the active Thread.

For calls to Lua this will be the main Lua thread, for parameters given to a callback, this will be whatever Lua thread called the callback.

Source

pub fn scope<'env, R>( &self, f: impl for<'scope> FnOnce(&'scope mut Scope<'scope, 'env>) -> Result<R>, ) -> Result<R>

Calls the given function with a Scope parameter, giving the function the ability to create userdata and callbacks from Rust types that are !Send or non-'static.

The lifetime of any function or userdata created through Scope lasts only until the completion of this method call, on completion all such created values are automatically dropped and Lua references to them are invalidated. If a script accesses a value created through Scope outside of this method, a Lua error will result. Since we can ensure the lifetime of values created through Scope, and we know that Lua cannot be sent to another thread while Scope is live, it is safe to allow !Send data types and whose lifetimes only outlive the scope lifetime.

Source

pub fn coerce_string(&self, v: Value) -> Result<Option<String>>

Attempts to coerce a Lua value into a String in a manner consistent with Lua’s internal behavior.

To succeed, the value must be a string (in which case this is a no-op), an integer, or a number.

Source

pub fn coerce_integer(&self, v: Value) -> Result<Option<Integer>>

Attempts to coerce a Lua value into an integer in a manner consistent with Lua’s internal behavior.

To succeed, the value must be an integer, a floating point number that has an exact representation as an integer, or a string that can be converted to an integer. Refer to the Lua manual for details.

Source

pub fn coerce_number(&self, v: Value) -> Result<Option<Number>>

Attempts to coerce a Lua value into a Number in a manner consistent with Lua’s internal behavior.

To succeed, the value must be a number or a string that can be converted to a number. Refer to the Lua manual for details.

Source

pub fn expire_registry_values(&self)

Remove any registry values whose RegistryKeys have all been dropped.

Unlike normal handle values, RegistryKeys do not automatically remove themselves on Drop, but you can call this method to remove any unreachable registry values not manually removed by Lua::remove_registry_value.

Source

pub fn set_app_data<T: MaybeSend + 'static>(&self, data: T) -> Option<T>
