Description

Loads and runs libraries.

require(packagename)

Roughly, require does the same job as dofile but require searches for the file in a path. Because of that, require is the preferred function in Lua for loading libraries.


Note: you may need to "exclude" the required files from execution

Parameters

packagename: (string) library to load

Examples

local relpath = "losc/"
local Types = require(relpath.."types")
local Message = require(relpath.."message")
local Timetag = require(relpath.."timetag")
