A singleton module for setting and querying debug hints, with support for multiple levels of logging verbosity, and std.strict, std.maturity & typecheck modules bundled in.

I am happy to announce release 1.1.0 of std._debug.

This module spun out of lua-stdlib as a replacement for the previously used shared global _DEBUG setting to avoid polluting the global namespace of client code.

Noteworthy changes in release 1.1.0 (2026-07-25) [stable]

New Features

  • Initial support for Lua 5.5.

Bug fixes

  • Correct self arguments in metamethod declarations.

Install it with LuaRocks using:

luarocks install std._debug 1.1.0
