[REQ] Need functions for DLL

NOTE: If you have HttpGet and Loadstring that FULLY works in lua im willing to pay 10$

Yes, it is possible to implement the http.get and loadstring functionality in Lua without calling any C++ code.

-- Define the http.get function using the LuaSocket library
local function http_get(url)
    local http = require("socket.http")
    local response, status = http.request(url)
    if status == 200 then
        return response
    else
        return nil
    end
end

-- Define the loadstring function using the Lua compiler
local function loadstring(code, chunkname)
    chunkname = chunkname or "=(loadstring)"
    local func, err = load(code, chunkname)
    if func then
        return func
    else
        return nil, err
    end
end

With these functions defined, you can use them just like the built-in http.get and loadstring functions

-- Example usage
local response = http_get("http://velvet.lol")
print(response)

local code = "print('Hello, world!')"
local func = loadstring(code)
func()

@tempegoreng, In Roblox, you can use the require function to load modules, which are basically pre-made scripts that you can reuse throughout your project. When you require a module, the code inside that module runs and any value that the module returns (if it returns one) is sent back to the require function. This makes it super easy to reuse code and avoid duplication in your project.

-- Load the module named "MyModule" using require
local MyModule = require(game:GetService("ServerScriptService").MyModule)

-- Call a function defined in MyModule
MyModule.MyFunction()

@Haruka

im convinced you are an ai gpt-3 thing

@marcus__, why lol?

I know that HttpGetAsync is a function of Roblox, I used to develop games in 2017, and it would be something like game:HttpGetAsync but it really never worked.

@Haruka, OOF. The problem is I am trying to also write require in roblox lua not C++.

become a weirdo and use RequestInternal in the HttpService

@heckerdude,  you can write your own implementation of the require function

Example

local loaded = {}

function require(moduleName)
    if not loaded[moduleName] then
        -- Load the module
        local module = loadfile(moduleName .. ".lua")
        if not module then
            error("Module not found: " .. moduleName)
        end
        
        -- Execute the module
        module()
        
        -- Mark the module as loaded
        loaded[moduleName] = true
    end
    
    -- Return the module's return value (if any)
    return moduleReturnValue[moduleName]
end

@Haruka, Also, last request. Anyway to do getgenv in lua?

@heckerdude, you can use the _G table to access the global environment

@RealNickk, This allows you to call a C function named "getgenv" from Lua, but it does not implement the getgenv function's behavior in Lua. To implement getgenv in Lua, simply declare it as a global variable and assign it the value _G.

getgenv = _G

@heckerdude,

getgenv = function() 
return getfenv(0)
end

@Haruka is ChatGPT your best friend
