For linux, install autoconf first for jemalloc
git clone https://github.com/cloudwu/skynet.git
cd skynet
make 'PLATFORM' # PLATFORM can be linux, macosx, freebsd now
Or you can :
export PLAT=linux
make
For freeBSD , use gmake instead of make .
Run these in different console
./skynet examples/config # Launch first skynet node (Gate server) and a skynet-master (see config for standalone option)
./3rd/lua/lua examples/client.lua # Launch a client, and try to input hello.
Skynet now use a modify version of lua 5.3.1 (http://www.lua.org/ftp/lua-5.3.1.tar.gz) .
For detail : http://lua-users.org/lists/lua-l/2014-03/msg00489.html
You can also use the other official Lua version , edit the makefile by yourself .
