description: Verbose guide to Lua 5.1 functions available in WoW, including Blizzard-specific differences and WoW-only additions. Use for core Lua behavior in the WoW addon environment.

WoW Lua API (Lua 5.1)

Scope

  • •Retail only.
  • •Covers the Lua functions list and WoW-specific notes from warcraft.wiki.gg.
  • •Does not cover OS or file IO libraries (they are not available in the WoW client).

When to use this skill

  • •You need behavior or signatures for base Lua 5.1 functions used in addons.
  • •You want Blizzard-specific differences (for example degrees vs radians).
  • •You need WoW-only helpers like strsplit, table.wipe, or fastrandom.

How to use this skill

  1. •Start with references/OVERVIEW.md for environment notes and scope.
  2. •Use the library reference that matches the function you need.
  3. •Read the detail files for method-call syntax and table method caveats.
