How can I use settings in a Module Script?
Alright,
So I am making an Anti-Exploit Module and I want the User to be able to Set the settings through the loader script Eg...
1 | require(03048303) |
I have seen it on Admins before. I know it is possible. I just don't know how. And I couldn't find anything on the Roblox Wiki about it.
Thanks, Enomphia

Do you mean a "Configurations" object containing Value objects? Can you be more specific? Link150 1355 — 6y

You could make your module return a function (or a metatable with __call to prevent using getfenv on it), which accepts a table with settings as an argument.
Example:
1 | local Settings = {} |
2 |
3 | --module's code blabla |
4 |
5 | return function(t) |
6 | --verify if the table is valid or something |
7 | Settings = t |
8 | end |
Or the one with __call:
1 | local Settings = {} |
2 |
3 | --module's code blabla |
4 |
5 | return setmetatable({}, {__call = function(self, t) |
6 | --verify if the table is valid or something |
7 | Settings = t |
8 | end, __metatable = false}) |
And you would pass the settings like this:
1 | require(03048303)({ |
2 | Something = true |
3 | }) |
