Practical Lua 5 Programming: Explore Lua’s programming capabilities with 100+ sample demonstrations and programs - Softcover
Synopsis
If you're into Lua programming, then this "Practical Lua 5 Programming" is a must-read. It's a hands-on book that'll help you get up and running quickly. It's got clear, step-by-step examples that'll walk you through everything from setting up your development environment to building dynamic web applications and embedding Lua in other programming languages.
Every chapter starts with an essential concept and then gives you some practical exercises to help you learn it. You'll see how powerful Lua can be as you work through problems and get immediate results. You'll start with the basics, like installing Lua on Linux, writing your first script, and learning the core language features like variables, data types, tables, functions, and control structures. And it gets even better—you'll dive into advanced stuff like metatables, coroutines, and closures. This is where you'll learn how to make flexible, modular code. The book also covers important stuff like file handling, using LuaRocks to manage your packages, and creating your own custom modules.
The book also takes you through web development using Lapis framework, demonstrating routing, template rendering, session management, and deploying applications. You'll also see how Lua can be embedded in JavaScript and Python applications, enabling you to leverage Lua's speed and efficiency in varied environments. Whether you're building scripts, web applications, or integrating Lua with other languages, this book gives you the tools and insights you need to get started confidently with Lua programming.
