path/to/my/file.functionName()
That's a syntax error, since that's equivalent to (path/to/my) / ( file.functionName() ), which is an expression, not a statement (in the same way that 1 + 1 is not a valid line of lua code).
As well, the API is loaded into a table identified with the file name, not the full path to the file.
os.loadAPI("myOS/apis/testAPI")
testAPI.function()

Eric, have you made sure that you're correct? Because you're not.
What Lyqyd said is true, like this will work:os.loadAPI("myOS/apis/testAPI") testAPI.function()
That function will run

No, you actually wouldnt even get "attempt to perform arithmetic __div on nil and nil". That code produces a syntax error, not a runtime error.
Put "3/4" in a file and run it (the CC Lua shell doesn't show this behavior) and you'll see what I mean.
(/dir/file).fn()
