Config Defaults

Choose a configuration value with a clear fallback.

config_default.lua

local mode = 
local port = 80

if mode == "dev" then
  port = 8080
elseif mode == "test" then
  port = 9000
end

print("mode=" .. mode)
print("port=" .. port)

local mode = 
local port = 80

if mode == "dev" then
  port = 8080
elseif mode == "test" then
  port = 9000
end

print("mode=" .. mode)
print("port=" .. port)

local mode = 
local port = 80

if mode == "dev" then
  port = 8080
elseif mode == "test" then
  port = 9000
end

print("mode=" .. mode)
print("port=" .. port)

config-default Small scripts often combine one explicit setting with a safe default. Keeping the selected value in a scalar variable makes the decision easy to inspect.
