This directory contains code that is more useful than the examples. This code
|
|
*is* supported.
|
|
|
|
lua.lua
|
|
|
|
These are modules to suport dynamic loading of LuaSocket by the stand alone
|
|
Lua Interpreter with the use of new "require" and "requirelib" functions.
|
|
For my Mac OS X box, for instance, I place all files in
|
|
/Users/diego/tec/luasocket and set the following environment variables:
|
|
|
|
LUA_INIT=@/Users/diego/tec/luasocket/lua.lua
|
|
LUA_PATH=/Users/diego/tec/luasocket/?.lua;?.lua
|
|
LUA_PATHLIB=/Users/diego/tec/luasocket/?.dylib;?.dylib
|
|
|
|
With that, I can run any luasocket application with the command line:
|
|
|
|
lua <script>
|
|
|
|
as long as the script uses "require" to load the needed namespaces.
|
|
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
|
|
was to test the UDP code, but since someone found it usefull, I turned it
|
|
into a module that is almost official (no uploads, yet).
|
|
|
|
dict.lua -- Dict client
|
|
|
|
The dict.lua module started with a cool simple client for the DICT
|
|
protocol, written by Luiz Henrique Figueiredo. This new version has been
|
|
converted into a library, similar to the HTTP and FTP libraries, that can
|
|
be used from within any luasocket application. Take a look on the source
|
|
code and you will be able to figure out how to use it.
|
|
|
|
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 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 check-links.lua {<url>} > output
|
|
|
|
and open the result to see a list of broken links.
|
|
|
|
Good luck,
|
|
Diego.
