To quote the official documentation:
https://github.com/openresty/lua-nginx-module#ngxshareddictset
"The value argument inserted can be Lua booleans, numbers, strings, or nil."
So it's not just Lua strings ;)
For complicated Lua data structures, like tables, you can do
serialization and de-serialization yourself, but it's doomed to be
more expensive.
