require 'scripts.s3.tableHash'(table) → stringUse tableHash when a table's current contents need a stable-looking identifier for cache keys, change detection, or generated names. It hashes recursively and does not mutate the input.
local tableHash = require 'scripts.s3.tableHash'
local key = tableHash(actionData)Keys are sorted by Lua type and then tostring before the table is serialized into a simple representation. Numbers use a fixed numeric format. Userdata must expose value.__type.name; otherwise the function raises.
This helper allocates temporary key, content, and representation tables while hashing. It is not cryptographic, collision-free, or cycle-safe: recursive tables will recurse indefinitely, and equal hashes do not prove equal tables. Values whose tostring output is not stable should not be used as a deterministic key.
