Help tweak the programme.

[HenryDu8133]

Hi there.Recently I've been working on some CCyoucube code, and now I've written a fast audio playback application called ‘Play.lua’.Here is the code for it

local req = ""
while true to
       if req ~= " " then shell.run("youcube.lua --nv -V 300 " .. req
       else shell.run("youcube.lua --nv -V 300 ")
       end

       req = " "
       print()
       for i = 1 , 20 do term.write("=") end
       print()
       req = read()
end

It's based on youcube's code
youcube.lua

It is now possible to play audio by typing ‘Play’

Now I want it to get the link directly after ‘Play’ and start playing. No need to enter the link again
Like this:

Could you help me to tweak the programme? Thanks !

To get a list of arguments, use ...

local arg1, arg2, arg3 = ...

-- or, in a table
local args = {...}

This can be used inside functions as well:

local function print_separately(...)
  local args = {...}
  for i = 1, #args do
    print(args[i])
  end
end

print_separately("hello", "world")

Give more instructions?

[fatboychummy]

local req = ...
shell.run("youcube.lua --nv -V 300", req)

Then when you do Play https://blablabla.bla in the shell, it will pass "https://blablabla.bla" as req.

Or alternatively, just pass ... directly to shell.run

shell.run("youcube.lua --nv -V 300", ...)
