table.rawset(key, value)

Description

This method attempts to set the value associated with the passed key with a new value, also passed as a parameter. It does so by bypassing delegation: if the target table lacks the key passed as a parameter, the key will not be automatically passed to the target’s delegate, ie. the delegate slot’s value will remain unchanged. Instead Squirrel creates a new slot in the target table with the passed value assigned to the passed key.
