Description
The debug library does not give you a debugger for Lua, but it offers all the primitives that you need for writing a debugger for Lua. For performance reasons, the official interface to these primitives is through the C API. The debug library in Lua is a way to access these functions directly within Lua code. This library declares all its functions inside the debug table.
Methods
debug.debug - enters interactive debug mode, line with only "cont" terminates
debug.gethook - returns current hook function, hook mask, hook count
debug.getinfo - returns table with information about a function
debug.getlocal - returns name and value of local variable with index local at stack level
debug.getupvalue - returns name and value of upvalue with index up of function func
debug.sethook - sets given function as a hook, mask="[crl]"
debug.setlocal - sets local variable with index local at stack level with value
debug.settypemt - Set meta table type
debug.setupvalue - sets upvalue with index up of function func with value
debug.traceback - returns a string with a traceback of the call stack
