mod_lua
provides a handler named lua-script
,
which can be used with an AddHandler
directive:
AddHandler lua-script .lua
This will cause any .lua
file to be evaluated by
mod_lua
.

Module: | mod_lua |
Specify the behavior of the in-memory code cache. The default is stat, which stats the top level script (not any included ones) each time that file is needed, and reloads it if the modified time indicates it is newer than the one it has already loaded. The other values cause it to keep the file cached forever (don't stat and replace) or to never cache the file.
In general stat or forever is good production and stat or never for deveopment.
LuaCodeCache stat
LuaCodeCache forever
LuaCodeCache never

Context: | |
Status: | Experimental |
Module: | mod_lua |
Add a hook (at APR_HOOK_MIDDLE) to the translate name phase of request processing. The hook function receives a single argument, the request_rec, and should return a status code, which is either an HTTP error code, or the constants defined in the apache2 module: apache2.OK, apache2.DECLINED, or apache2.DONE.
For those new to hooks, basically each hook will be invoked until one of them returns apache2.OK. If your hook doesn't want to do the translation it should just return apache2.DECLINED. If the request should stop processing, then return apache2.DONE.
Example:
LuaHookTranslateName /scripts/conf/hooks.lua silly_mapper
-- /scripts/conf/hooks.lua --
function silly_mapper(r)
if r.uri == "/" then
r.file = "/var/www/home.lua"
return apache2.OK
else
return apache2.DECLINED
end
end

Syntax: | LuaMapHandler uri-pattern /path/to/lua/script.lua [function-name] |
Context: | |
Status: | Experimental |
Module: | mod_lua |
This directive matches a uri pattern to invoke a specific handler function in a specific file. It uses PCRE regular expressions to match the uri, and supports interpolating match groups into both the file path and the function name be careful writing your regular expressions to avoid security issues.
LuaMapHandler /(\w+)/(/w+) /scripts/$1.lua handle_$2
This would match uri's such as /photos/show?id=9 to the file /scripts/photos.lua and invoke the handler function handle_show on the lua vm after loading that file.
LuaMapHandler /bingo /scripts/wombat.lua
This would invoke the "handle" function, which is the default if no specific function name is provided.

Syntax: | LuaPackageCPath /path/to/include/?.soa |

Module: | mod_lua |
Add a path to lua's shared library search path. Follows the same conventions as lua. This just munges the package.cpath in the lua vms.

Add a path to lua's module search path. Follows the same conventions as lua. This just munges the package.path in the lua vms.
LuaPackagePath /scripts/lib/?.lua

Module: | mod_lua |
Specify the base path which will be used to evaluate all relative paths within mod_wombat. If not specified they will be resolved relative to the current working directory, which may not always work well for a server.
