a large multi-purpose library for lua (primarily 5.4) revolving around threading and cryptography, and including network, math, io, and table functions

heres an example of a webserver to return a sha0 hash of an input

--(this is in tests/net2.lua)
net = require "lullaby.net"
crypto = require "lullaby.crypto"
local port = 8080
MAX_LENGTH = 2048

net.listen(function(server)

  --listen to post requests at localhost:8080 (root directory)
  server:POST("/", function(res, req)
    --creates a sha0 hash object
    local hash = crypto.sha0()
    --loads an extra 2048 characters from the request body (the body is not guaranteed to be >= 2048 characters, reasoning in docs)
    req:roll(MAX_LENGTH)

    --incremental hashes allow updating via addition, in this case adding the body and getting a string from it
    hash = (hash   req.Body):final()
    --send the hash to the client, closes connection, but thread is live until it ends
    res:send(hash)
  end)

end, port)

note: any net code is prone to memory leaks, this will be addressed and fixed soon, on the other hand it has no know memory issues

build with make, output is ./lullaby.so or (win)./lullaby.dll

windows works through msys2, install mingw-w64-x86_64-lua then run make CC=gcc

some docs

• (working on seperatley) gui for graphs

• finish up http server

  • https

  • check memory saftey (should be good) (now work on indirect & more lifetime stuff)

  • memory optimizations (its getting there)

  • settings (parse/read files, etc..)

  • define usage of new routes inside of routes, and allow route removal

  • connection limit

  • allow choosing what to copy over to the thread, or not to copy the global state at all

  • allow stopping the server

• more doxygen like docs, everywhere

• encode tests (and fix sprintf ub)

• luaproc helped with multithreading
