Maybe you could just serialize your data to a lua file (instead of sql), and read it back as a normal table - and vice versa? If so maybe something like serpent would be of use. It functions as you describe in your last paragraph. I use it just as you describe (i think) for some scripts. Imo lua is perfectly suitable for data storage/retrieval. I figure unless I have a good reason to use something more traditional eg `json` or `sql`, why not just use lua?
