Load Lua-files by relative path

Question

If I have a file structure like this:

./main.lua
./mylib/mylib.lua
./mylib/mylib-utils.lua
./mylib/mylib-helpers.lua
./mylib/mylib-other-stuff.lua
         


        

Answer 1

Under the Conky's Lua environment I've managed to include my common.lua (in the same directory) as require(".common"). Note the leading dot . character.
