LuaRocks is a deployment and management system for modules in the Lua programming language. It aims to provide facilities for Lua such as those from module systems of other scripting languages, such as Ruby's RubyGems or Perl's CPAN. LuaRocks allows Lua modules to be installed as self-contained packages called "rocks", which also contain version and dependency information. This information is used at install time so that when one rock is requested, all rocks it depends on are also installed. It's also used at run time so that when a module is required, the correct version is loaded. License: MIT/X Consortium License Changes: Multiple local rocks trees are supported. Command-line flags were added to allow specifying which server to get rocks from and which local tree to install them to. The manifest file in rocks trees now stores dependency information. The "unpack" command allows unpacking binary and pure-Lua rocks for inspection.
