[Freeswitch-users] api:execute vs session:execute

[John Nash]

While reading documentation I saw that to call another lua script from
inside a lua script we use ..

api = freeswitch.API();
reply = api:executeString("luarun another.lua");

But we can also run another lua script using session:execute. I was
wondering what is the difference, which one should be preferred?

on api no session variables?
imho - different array of variables.

session:execute("lua"... = run as application in your session's thread
(calling lua script will wait for completion).

api:execute("luarun" ... = run in separate thread with no association to
the session (calling lua script will continue executing in session's thread)

Alternatively, you can call a different lua script or module using
"require".
