What is the mechanism in gopher-lua to expect a lua function with a given table as argument?

[croessner]

Hi,

is it possible to write Go code that would expect a lua function with a table as argument? I give an example:

local action = require("action")

function i_am_a_required_function(some_object)
    local foo = some_object.field1
    local bar = some_object.field2

    -- do something
end

In Go I would have some multi-threaded enviornment (HTTP server with client requests) that can call this script and the script would do some action.

So far I payed around with the Loader and the pool-stack, but I am totally stuck. I even opened a question on StackOverflow (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/77322628/how-can-i-prevent-dofile-calls-in-an-threaded-environment-with-gopher-lua?noredirect=1#comment136315117_77322628), but I only could focus on the DoFile-problem and not at the main conceptional issue at all.

Any help would really be great! And of course many thanks in advance.

You probably wonder, why the stack overflow question differs. That is, because I tried to find some working way to have dynamic data inside the lua script. My question here is what I personally would prefer, if I had understood all the pieces ;-)
