[OpenWrt-Devel] Syntax to call ubus registered function (having arguments) from lua

[Jo-Philipp Wich]

Hi,

yeah right - made a mistake. The first argument to ubus.connect() is the
socket path and the second one is the timeout in ms.

Pass nil as 1st arg to use the default path and the desired timeout as
2nd one:

conn = ubus.connect(nil, 1000)
