LuaJ add lua function in Java


I am aware of this method:

How can I add functions to _G that run java code using Luaj?

But that link lets you add functions such as math.abs(...). I just want to add functions without libraries or having to use require, you can just use myfunction() right out of the box.

How do I do this?


Solution

  • I found the answer in the LuaJ source:

    public LuaValue call(LuaValue modname, LuaValue env)
    {
        globals = env.checkglobals();
    
        env.set("assert", new _assert());
        env.set("collectgarbage", new collectgarbage());
        env.set("dofile", new dofile());
                ....
    
        return env;
    }
