How to use fengari?

[Aerixblx]

const fengari = require('fengari');
const luaconf  = fengari.luaconf;
const lua      = fengari.lua;
const lauxlib  = fengari.lauxlib;
const lualib   = fengari.lualib;
 
const L = lauxlib.luaL_newstate();
 
lualib.luaL_openlibs(L);
 
lua.lua_pushliteral(L, "print('hello world!')");

It prints nothing so I'm confused on how you use this.

[daurnimator]

lua.lua_pushliteral(L, "print('hello world!')");

https://www.lua.org/manual/5.3/manual.html#lua_pushliteral

This macro is equivalent to lua_pushstring, but should be used only when s is a literal string.

https://www.lua.org/manual/5.3/manual.html#lua_pushstring

Pushes the zero-terminated string pointed to by s onto the stack.

So your code just pushes some code onto the stack, it doesn't run it.
