The Lua surface is derived from `Ash.Info.Manifest.generate/1` — every public action becomes a callable at `..` (names overridable via the `AshLua.Domain` and `AshLua.Resource` DSL extensions). ## Example defmodule MyApp.Accounts do use Ash.Domain, otp_app: :my_app, extensions: [AshLua.Domain] resources do resource MyApp.Accounts.User end end defmodule MyApp.Accounts.User do use Ash.Resource, domain: MyApp.Accounts, extensions: [AshLua.Resource] # ... attributes / actions ... end AshLua.eval!(\""" local user, err = accounts.user.create({ name = "Zach" }) assert(err == nil) return user.id \""", otp_app: :my_app, actor: current_user) Action callables always return `(result, nil)` on success and `(nil, err_table)` on failure. Wrap a call in Lua's built-in `assert()` for raise semantics: local user = assert(accounts.user.create({ name = "Zach" })) ## Actor / tenant / context All three are host-supplied via the eval opts and are never reflected to or mutable from the script — there is no way for a Lua script to read or change the actor, tenant, or context. """ @doc """ Evaluates a Lua script in a freshly-built VM and returns `{results, %Lua{}}`. ## Options * `:otp_app` (required unless `:manifest` is given) — passed to `Ash.Info.Manifest.generate/1`. * `:actor`, `:tenant`, `:context` — host-supplied; merged into every Ash call. * `:manifest` — a pre-built `%Ash.Info.Manifest{}` to skip regeneration. * `:lua` — a pre-built `%Lua{}` to install bindings on (e.g. with extra `Lua.set!/3` callbacks). * `:decode` — forwarded to `Lua.eval!/3`; defaults to `true`.
