A place for Lua module sources
All of Lua currently resides in external/mit/lua. For now that is the
library and the lua/luac binaries.
We should also define a location in the source hierarchy where we can
place source code for modules. Since all modules I stumbled over so far
are under the same MIT license as Lua itself, I suggest to place them
under the external/mit/lua directory as well. Maybe under
external/mit/lua/modules/<name_of_module>/.
My idea is to import a small set of modules that interface functionality
in base:
- posix: General POSIX functions
- ldap: Interfacing LDAP
- gpio: GPIO access
- netbsd: Very specific NetBSD functionality not found in posix or any
other module (e.g. accessing sysctls)
Opinions on the path for modules? Or on the modules themselves?
