-- Load a module only when needed -- Useful when a module is only needed for certain edge cases -- Lazy loading prevents the module from appearing in Special:Whatlinkshere when unused -- It may also be helpful for performance -- @returns a function which, when called, returns the module, or nil if it doesn't exist function p.lazyLoad(moduleName) local module local moduleExists = true return function if not module and moduleExists then local moduleLoaded, loadedModule = pcall(function return require(moduleName) end) if moduleLoaded then module = loadedModule else moduleExists = false end end return module end end
