This is an implementation of a router for an http server. This is old work of mine (Raimon Grau) from 2013.
- It uses a home made radix trie implementation.
- It does too much copying of tables (I was starting with lua, and deep into lisp, so the code is quit lispy)
- recursion, yay
- it detects collisions
- it gives more precedence to fixed strings rather than wildcards, so ’foo/bar/baz’ and ‘/foo:bar/baz’ do not conflict

- This is part of APITools project. the repo lived on at https://github.com/APItools/router.lua/, but I wanted to have the pristine initial code I wrote, with all good and bad aspects. If you want to use this code, check the official repo. It probably improved. And it has an OOP interface.
