file.load

File loader table aliases: load, loadfile, load_file, do, dofile and do_file.

Syntax

file.load(path: string) -> function

Parameters

Returns

Description

file.load is part of the File system library. File APIs are limited to the Yuari workspace under %LOCALAPPDATA%\Yuari\workspace; absolute paths and traversal outside it are rejected.

Each call creates or returns a fresh object or value that you can store and pass to other functions.

The aliases file.loadfile(path), file.load_file(path), file.do(path), file.dofile(path), file.do_file(path) resolve to the same implementation.

Example

local chunk = file.load("script.lua")
if chunk then chunk() end
file.do("script.lua")

Notes

• Aliases: file.loadfile(path), file.load_file(path), file.do(path), file.dofile(path), file.do_file(path).
• All paths are confined to %LOCALAPPDATA%\Yuari\workspace.
