Simple LUA question for debugging purposes

[Drexx]

I am new to lua, have the whole environment setup including witchcraft running. How do you dump an object inside of witchcraft.

 

I have used console.log() in javascript, and var_dump() in php, I need to see what is inside of these objects to understand them better and to see whats going on.

 

If its not that simple, let me know how to proper debug whats going on in a script.

 

Example, I am using the Moose library (have many things spawning btw, so the script works)

 

blueClients = SET_CLIENT:New():FilterCoalitions("blue"):FilterStart()

return blueClients

 

witchcraft throws:

[string "Scripts\JSON.lua"]:255: can't convert function to JSON

 

(yes the default template 'list all unit IDs' works fine and displays all the unit ids

Thanks,
