Installation

+ +

Here we describe the standard distribution. If the +standard doesn't meet your needs, we refer you to the Lua +discussion list, where any question about the package scheme +will likely already have been answered.

+ +

Directory structure

+ +

On Unix systems, the standard distribution uses two base +directories, one for system dependent files, and another for system +independent files. Let's call these directories <CDIR> +and <LDIR>, respectively. +For example, in my laptp, Lua 5.1 is configured to +use '/usr/local/lib/lua/5.1' for +<CDIR> and '/usr/local/share/lua/5.1' for +<LDIR>. On Windows, <CDIR> +usually points to the directory where the Lua executable is +found, and <LDIR> points to a +lua/ directory inside <CDIR>. (These +settings can be overridden by environment variables +LUA_PATH and LUA_CPATH. See the Lua +documentation for details.) Here is the standard LuaSocket +distribution directory structure:

+ +

+<LDIR>/ltn12.lua
+<LDIR>/socket.lua
+<CDIR>/socket/core.dll
+<LDIR>/socket/http.lua
+<LDIR>/socket/tp.lua
+<LDIR>/socket/ftp.lua
+<LDIR>/socket/smtp.lua
+<LDIR>/socket/url.lua
+<LDIR>/mime.lua
+<CDIR>/mime/core.dll
+

+ +

Naturally, on Unix systems, core.dll +would be replaced by core.so. +

+ +

Using LuaSocket

+ +

With the above setup, and an interpreter with shared library support, +it should be easy to use LuaSocket. Just fire the interpreter and use the +require function to gain access to whatever module you need:

+ +

+Lua 5.2.2  Copyright (C) 1994-2013 Lua.org, PUC-Rio
+> socket = require("socket")
+> print(socket._VERSION)
+--> LuaSocket 3.0-rc1
+

+ +

Each module loads their dependencies automatically, so you only need to +load the modules you directly depend upon:

+ +

+Lua 5.2.2  Copyright (C) 1994-2013 Lua.org, PUC-Rio
+> http = require("socket.http")
+> print(http.request("http://www.impa.br/~diego/software/luasocket"))
