Functions

func Decode

func Decode(L *lua.LState, data []byte) (lua.LValue, error)

Decode converts the JSON encoded data to Lua values.

func DecodeValue

func DecodeValue(L *lua.LState, value interface{}) lua.LValue

DecodeValue converts the value to a Lua value.

This function only converts values that the encoding/json package decodes to. All other values will return lua.LNil.

func Encode

func Encode(value lua.LValue) ([]byte, error)

Encode returns the JSON encoding of value.

func Loader

func Loader(L *lua.LState) int

Loader is the module loader function.

func Preload

func Preload(L *lua.LState)

Preload adds json to the given Lua state's package.preload table. After it has been preloaded, it can be loaded using require:

local json = require("json")
