How to read a txt file in script

[DarkingCheater]

Well, to read a txt file you need the directory and filename.

Below you will have a function where it will open the file and read it and return the text of it.

local open = io.open 
local function read_file(path) 
local file = open(path, "rb")
 if not file then return nil end 
local content = file:read 
"*a"
file:close()
return content
 end 

Example

in the txt file that is located in the android Notes folder is stored in the text "TestRead"

local open = io.open 
local function read_file(path) 
local file = open(path, "rb")
 if not file then return nil end 
local content = file:read 
"*a"
file:close()
return content
 end 

Text  = read_file('/storage/sdcard0/Notes/File.txt')

if Text == nil then
print('The directory or file name is wrong')
else
print(Text)
end

will return "TestRead"
