Best way to use the same modules within several Lua Scripts

gg.lafon

Hello,

Can someone tell me what is the most efficient way to use some modules, for example resty.redis, resty.postgresql etc. in several Lua scripts used in content_by_lua_file:

By declaring a global instance in the init_by_lua part and using it inside each script:

nginx.conf
init_by_lua 'redis = require "resty.redis"';

MyScriptLua:
local redisFactory = redis
local red = redisFactory:new()

OR

MyScriptLua:
local redis = require "resty.redis
local red = redis:new()

Use the second one with the explicit require, IMO.
