Lua-eco is a Lua interpreter with a built-in event loop for scheduling lightweight coroutines automatically, enabling efficient concurrency in Lua. Build high-performance, scalable applications.

Lua-eco also provides some modules for you to build applications quickly:

  • log: Provides logging functionality for Lua-eco applications, allowing you to log messages at different severity levels and output them to various destinations.
  • time: Provides a Lua interface, allowing you to get current time, sleeping, performing timer operations.
  • file: Provides a Lua interface, allowing you to read and write files, traverse directory and perform other file-related operations.
  • sys: Provides access to various system-level functionality, such as process id, system information, and allows you to execute shell commands while obtaining their exit status as well as their standard output and standard error output.
  • socket: Provides a low-level network socket interface for Lua-eco applications, allowing you to create and manage network connections. Includes tcp, tcp6, udp, udp6 and unix.
  • ssl: Provides SSL/TLS support for Lua-eco applications, allowing you to establish secure connections to remote servers.
  • http/https: Provides a HTTP client and server implementation for Lua-eco applications.
  • websocket: Provides a WebSocket server implementation for Lua-eco applications, allowing you to build real-time web applications.
  • mqtt: Provides an implementation of the MQTT protocol for Lua-eco applications using lua-mosquitto, allowing you to build IoT and messaging applications.
  • dns: Provides a DNS client implementation for Lua-eco applications, allowing you to perform DNS lookups and resolve domain names.
  • ubus: Provides a Lua interface to the ubus system in OpenWrt, allowing you to interact with system services and daemons.
  • sync: Provides operations for synchronization between coroutines.
  • netlink: Provides operations for inter-process communication (IPC) between both the kernel and userspace processes.
  • nl80211: Show/manipulate wireless devices and their configuration.
  • termios: Bind unix API for terminal/serial I/O.

Would you like to try it? Kinda interesting.

#!/usr/bin/env eco

local time = require 'eco.time'

eco.run(function(name)
    while true do
        print(time.now(), name, eco.id())
        time.sleep(1.0)
    end
end, 'eco1')

eco.run(function(name)
    while true do
        print(time.now(), name, eco.id())
        time.sleep(2.0)
    end
end, 'eco2')
