\section{Introduction}\label{introduction}}

\texttt{luaoptions} is a LuaLaTeX package providing extensive support
for handling \emph{options}, on package level and locally. It is hosted
at \url{https://github.com/lualatex-tools/luaoptions} and maintained by
Jacques Peron
(\href{mailto:cataclop@hotmail.com}{\nolinkurl{cataclop@hotmail.com}})
and Urs Liska
(\href{mailto:git@ursliska.de}{\nolinkurl{git@ursliska.de}}). The
package was originally developed as part of the \texttt{lyluatex}
package\footnote{\url{https://github.com/jperon/lyluatex}} but has now
been extracted as a standalone package because we realized it can be a
useful tool for arbitrary LuaLaTeX packages having to deal with
\emph{options} -- both \emph{package options} and \emph{optional macro
arguments}. A \texttt{lyluatex} installation should not be a dependency
for packages that want to make use of option handling but are not
interested in music engraving \dots

\texttt{luaoptions} allows the declaration of sets of options, along
with defaults, expected/allowed values and limited type checking. These
options can be enforced as package options, changed at any point during
a document, or overwritten locally by optional macro arguments. It is
also possible to instantiate an \texttt{Options} object as an
independent Lua object, without linking it to a package.
\texttt{luaoptions} can be used to enforce and prepopulate options, or
it can be used to simply handle the parsing of optional
\texttt{key=value} arguments into proper Lua tables.

The main use of \texttt{luaoptions} is to define package options as
follows:

\begin{Shaded}
\begin{Highlighting}[]
\FunctionTok{\textbackslash{}RequirePackage}\NormalTok{\{luaoptions\}}
\FunctionTok{\textbackslash{}directlua}\NormalTok{\{}
\NormalTok{  local \_opt = lua\_options}
\NormalTok{  lua\_options.register(\textquotesingle{}myoptions\textquotesingle{}, \{}
\NormalTok{    [\textquotesingle{}option\textquotesingle{}] = \{\textquotesingle{}default value\textquotesingle{}, \textquotesingle{}other value\textquotesingle{}, \textquotesingle{}\textquotesingle{}\},}
\NormalTok{    [\textquotesingle{}otheroption\textquotesingle{}] = \{\textquotesingle{}default\textquotesingle{}, validator\},}
\NormalTok{    [\textquotesingle{}yetanotheroptions\textquotesingle{}] = \{\},}
\NormalTok{  \})}
\NormalTok{\}}
\end{Highlighting}
\end{Shaded}

\texttt{validator} is a function that returns \texttt{true} when the
defined option is valid, \texttt{false} otherwise. \texttt{luaoptions}
itself contains predefined such functions.

After that, defined options are available in a lua table, which can be
used by the mean of the \texttt{client} command:

\begin{Shaded}
\begin{Highlighting}[]
\KeywordTok{local}\NormalTok{ myopts }\OperatorTok{=}\NormalTok{ lua\_options}\OperatorTok{.}\NormalTok{client}\OperatorTok{(}\StringTok{\textquotesingle{}myoptions\textquotesingle{}}\OperatorTok{)}
\NormalTok{tex}\OperatorTok{.}\NormalTok{sprint}\OperatorTok{(}\NormalTok{myopts}\OperatorTok{.}\NormalTok{option}\OperatorTok{)}
\end{Highlighting}
\end{Shaded}

This initial release does \emph{not} include documentation beyond this
short introduction; please refer to the docstrings in
\texttt{luaoptions.lua} and \texttt{luaoptions-lib.lua} for more
information.

For the time being it is possible to look into how some of our own
packages make use of \texttt{luaoptions}:
