Hi,
How to use custom Lua modules written in C in Nginx?
1) It is clear how to extend Lua with C: http://www.troubleshooters.com/codecorn/lua/lua_lua_calls_c.htm
Tried test samples -> all work good
2) It is clear how to use Lua modules with nginx written in Lua: https://github.com/openresty/lua-nginx-module#statically-linking-pure-lua-modules
Tried test samples -> all work good
But modules written in C and compiled as ".o" or ".so" object are not working.
1) I configure nginx with --with-ld-opt="-Wl,-rpath,/path/to/luajit-or-lua/lib,/<path>/mylua.o"
Content of "mylua.c"
--------------------------------------------------
#include "lua.h"
#include "lualib.h"
#include "lauxlib.h"
typedef int (*lua_CFunction) (lua_State *L);
lua_State* L;
static int test(lua_State *L)
{
int x = 777;
lua_pushnumber(L, x);
return 1;
}
int luaopen_mylua(lua_State *L)
{
lua_register(L, "test", test);
return 0;
}
--------------------------------------------------
2) This module works if use it in lua, like:
lua> require("mylua");
print(test()); -- Prints "777"
3) Nginx is compiling correctly
4) When I use in nginx config:
content_by_lua_file '/opt/nginx/test.lua';
Content of /opt/nginx/test.lua
local foo = require("mylua");
ngx.say(foo.test());
I'm receiving the error:
[error] 9375#0: *1 lua entry thread aborted: runtime error: /opt/nginx/test.lua:1: module 'mylua' not found:
no field package.preload['mylua']
The names of modules and files are 100% correct. Checked 10x times.
I suppose that lua C-module must be compiled with "luajit".
Thanks in advance
