This directory contains code that is more useful than the examples. This code
*is* supported.
lua.lua and luasocket.lua
These are modules to suport dynamic loading of LuaSocket by the stand alone
Lua Interpreter with the use of the "require" function. For my Mac OS X
system, I place lua.lua in /usr/local/lua, luasocket.lua and the
libluasocket.dylib in /usr/local/lua/luasocket and set the following
environment variables:
LUA_PATH=/usr/local/lua/?/?.lua
LUA_INIT=@/usr/local/lua/lua.lua
LUA_FUNCNAME=_?
LUA_LIBNAME=/usr/local/lua/?/lib?.dylib
With that, I can run any luasocket application with the command line:
lua -l luasocket <script>
Much nicer than having to build a new executable just to initialize
LuaSocket!
tftp.lua -- Trivial FTP client
This module implements file retrieval by the TFTP protocol. Its main use
is to test the UDP code, but someone might find it usefull.
get.lua -- file retriever
This little program is a client that uses the FTP and HTTP code to
implement a command line file graber. Just run
lua -l luasocket get.lua <remote-file> [<local-file>]
to download a remote file (either ftp:// or http://) to the specified
local file. The program also prints the download throughput, elapsed
time, bytes already downloaded etc during download.
check-links.lua -- HTML link checker program
This little program scans a HTML file and checks for broken links. It is
similar to check-links.pl by Jamie Zawinski, but uses all facilities of
the LuaSocket library and the Lua language. It has not been thoroughly
tested, but it should work. Just run
lua -l luasocket check-links.lua {<url>} > output
and open the result to see a list of broken links.
cl-compat.lua
This module implements an old (and higher level) interface to SMTP provided
by the CGILUA toolkit. It runs on top of the LuaSocket SMTP interface.
Good luck,
Diego.
