--[=[ The function formatting module for pretty. How is one supposed to pretty print functions? Well, there are many different formats, and no "best" one, only "best for the purpose". Lets first look at how you could display the most raw data about a function. 1. The default Lua format: "function: 0x41f71c60" This is the default, and by far the easiest. Also, very uninformative. We only get a unique id for the function. 2. Include the arguments: "function (t, str) ... end" This is slightly more advanced, as it requires using the debug library to discover the names of the arguments. In addition it adds a pseudo-correct formatting for the function. Now we know the arguments, and if they possess descriptive names, we can learn a lot about the function. 3. Include some documentation: "function (x) --[[math.cosh: Returns the hyperbolic cosine of x.]] ... end" We retain the arguments and pseudo-correct formatting from above, and add documentation taken from elsewhere (for example the Lua Reference Manual, or LuaJIT webpage), as comments. This is great for explorative programming, as we can read about the language from within the language. 4. Short names: "math.min" Rather than giving an overly descriptive overview of some inbuilt, we assume that we can find it by its standard name. With this one we gain complete native representation, assuming the standard enviroment, of course. It won't work at all with custom functions. 5. Include source code: "function (a, b) return (a + b)/2 end" Now we find the source code somehow, and use it as the representation. This is powerful because we can directly inspect the code. It won't work with builtins, closured functions, or when fucking around with the source files. 6. Include closures: "(function () local i = 5; return function () i = i + 1; return i end end)()" In cases where a function has a closure, we can use debug.getinfo to get the names and values of the upvalues. We can then represent the closure, by creating the closure itself. Iterators like the example above works nicely, but more complex chains of closures break down. For example: local val_a = 1 local func_a = function () val_a = val_a + 1; return val_a end local val_a = val_a local func_c = function () return func_a() + val_a end Here we have two functions, both with their own upvalue, both named "val_a", yet those names refer to two different "slots". Successive calls to `func_c` should produce the list: 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, ... To break through this barrier, we need to parse the Lua AST, and that is beyond this project. --]=] -- Import local LIBRARY do local thispath = ... and select('1', ...):match('.+%.') or '' local was_loaded, library = pcall(require, thispath..'library') LIBRARY = was_loaded and library or {} end -- Constants -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Util local function get_function_info (f) -- NOTE: Works best in LuaJIT or Lua 5.2+ -- Regarding get-info: -- * No need to includ 'f'.
