If you’re using openresty, you can make use of the lua interpreter from the command line if you need to test some code that will be ran in nginx. On my pc, I can access the interpreter ( REPL mode ) like this:
./build/luajit-root/usr/local/openresty/luajit/bin/luajit-2.1.0-alphaAnd if you need to execute a file, do:
./build/luajit-root/usr/local/openresty/luajit/bin/luajit-2.1.0-alpha file/path/goes/here
