Builds and installs LuaRocks from source into the .luarocks/
directory in the working directory. Configures PATH
, LUA_PATH
, and LUA_CPATH
environment variables to be able to use the luarocks
command directly in workflows, and require installed modules in Lua.
leafo/gh-actions-lua
can be used to install Lua, which is required for LuaRocks to build and run. (This action will use any Lua installed in .lua/
).
Installs Lua, LuaRocks, then install a module:
- uses: leafo/gh-actions-lua@v9
- uses: leafo/gh-actions-luarocks@v4
# Install some package
- name: install a module
run: luarocks install moonscript
For a more complete example see: https://github.com/leafo/gh-actions-lua/blob/master/README.md#full-example
Default: "3.8.0"
Specifies which version of LuaRocks to install. Must be listed on https://luarocks.github.io/luarocks/releases/
Example:
- uses: leafo/gh-actions-luarocks@v4
with:
luarocksVersion: "3.1.3"
Default: null
(Optional)
Manually specify the path to an existing Lua installation to use. This is not
necessary if you are using leafo/gh-actions-lua
. Will build LuaRocks with
./configure --with-lua=$withLuaPath
Example:
- uses: leafo/gh-actions-luarocks@v4
with:
withLuaPath: "/usr/local/openresty/luajit/"
