LuaOnTheRocks

It's often handy to be able to dump Lua tables to a human-readable format and paste them e.g into Excel for ad hoc analysis. There are lots of snippets on the Web, and for years I had a short one that worked fine - but I couldn't find it this time of asking. So I Googled and unfortunately found what looked like a good idea, convert to JSON, complete with an example using luarocks.

This may work on UNIX systems, but it's a total mess on on Windows despite what is claimed. At first glance the install instructions look quite detailed (not simple, but that's not to be expected in a conversion like this). So a key step will be to run their INSTALL.BAT. A quick search to see what nasties might be hidden there. A longer, more careful search - there ain't no INSTALL.BAT!!!

After a few hours of applying chewing gum, I rerun my working Lua program MYPROG -f afile.lua > myfile.out "Error while executing script from MYPROG": afile.lua:26: module 'luarocks.loader' not found: 109.26.41.115 (talk) 22:50, 3 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
