Filesystem and serialization
file library
See file library
json library
The library contains functions for serializing and deserializing tables:
json.tostring(object: table, human_readable: bool=false) -> str
Serializes an object into a JSON string. If the second parameter is true, multi-line human-readable formatting will be used, rather than the compact format used by default.
json.parse(code: str) -> table
Parses a JSON string into a table.
toml library
The library contains functions for serializing and deserializing tables:
toml.tostring(object: table) -> str
Serializes an object into a TOML string.
toml.parse(code: str) -> table
Parses a TOML string into a table.
yaml library
The library contains functions for serializing and deserializing tables:
yaml.tostring(object: table) -> str
Serializes an object into a YAML string.
yaml.parse(code: str) -> table
Parses a YAML string into a table.
bjson library
The library contains functions for working with the binary data exchange format vcbjson.
-- Encodes a table into a byte array
bjson.tobytes(
-- encoded table
value: table,
-- compression
[optional] compression: bool=true
) --> Bytearray
-- Decodes a byte array into a table
bjson.frombytes(bytes: table | Bytearray) --> table
Storing data in a world
When saving pack data in the world, you should use the function:
pack.data_file(packid: str, filename: str) -> str
Returns data file path like: world:data/packid/filename
and creates missing directories.
If paths other than data/{packid}/... are used, data may be lost.
