A Minetest mod library for safely storing large amounts of data in on-disk files. Created out of the need to have a robust data store for advtrains.
The main purpose is to load and store large Lua table structures into files, without loading everything in memory and exhausting the function constant limit of LuaJIT.
Also contains various utilities to handle files on disk in a safe manner, retain multiple versions of the same file a.s.o.
For API documentation, see api.md
.
serialize_lib includes two configuration options:
Enable strict file loading mode
If enabled, if any error occurs during loading of a file using the 'atomic' API, an error is thrown. You probably need to disable this option for initial loading after creating the world.
Do not automatically switch to "Windows mode" when saving atomically
Normally, when renaming filename.new to filename fails, serialize_lib automatically switches to a mode where it deletes filename prior to moving. Enable this option to prevent this behavior and abort saving instead.
