Exporting OOP functions that use existing player class

[Noki]

function Player:test() 
    outputDebugString(self:getName()) 
end 

How would I go about exporting something like this? There is another thread that mentions using loadstring, but that really only works if I want to import the class. However, since I'm using the existing player class (containing a table with all the player functions) how would I go about running this function from another resource?

You could do something like this,

function playerTest () 
    return Player:test() 
end 

This gives you the possibility to export it. But i'm pretty sure this isn't that what you exactly want

Example:

function Player:getName() 
    return self.name 
end 
  
function execute(fc,p) 
    for k, v in pairs(Player) do 
        if k == fc then 
            return v(p) 
        end 
    end 
end 

local playerName = exports.playerClass:execute("getName",thePlayer) 
outputDebugString(playerName)
