--[[-- Util Module - Global
- Provides a method of using global with the guarantee that keys will not conflict
@core Global
@alias Global
@usage--- Drop in boiler plate:
-- Below is a drop in boiler plate which ensures your global access will not conflict with other modules
local global = {}
Global.register(global, function(tbl)
global = tbl
end)
@usage--- Registering new global tables:
-- The boiler plate above is not recommend because it is not descriptive in its function
-- Best practice is to list out all variables you are storing in global and their function
local MyModule = {
public_data = {} -- Stores data which other modules can access
}
local private_data = {} -- Stores data which other modules cant access
local more_private_data = {} -- Stores more data which other modules cant access
-- You can not store a whole module in global because not all data types are serialisable
Global.register({
MyModule.public_data,
private_data,
more_private_data
}, function(tbl)
-- You can also use this callback to set metatable on class instances you have stored in global
MyModule.public_data = tbl[1]
private_data = tbl[2]
more_private_data = tbl[3]
end)
