Update get.lua to use the new callbacks.
The old "code" module is now the "mime" module.
Updated all modules that depended on it.
Updated url.lua to use the new namespace scheme, and moved the
escape and unescape functions that used to be in the code.lua module
to it, since these are specific to urls.
Updated the callback entries in the manual.
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.
