# lullaby
> a large multi-purpose library for lua (primarily 5.4) revolving around threading and cryptography, and including network, math, io, and table functions
heres an example of a webserver to return a [sha0](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SHA-0) hash of an input
<blockquote>
```lua
--(this is in tests/net2.lua)
net = require "lullaby.net"
crypto = require "lullaby.crypto"
local port = 8080
MAX_LENGTH = 2048
net.listen(function(server)
--listen to post requests at localhost:8080 (root directory)
server:POST("/", function(res, req)
--creates a sha0 hash object
local hash = crypto.sha0()
--loads an extra 2048 characters from the request body (the body is not guaranteed to be >= 2048 characters, reasoning in docs)
req:roll(MAX_LENGTH)
--incremental hashes allow updating via addition, in this case adding the body and getting a string from it
hash = (hash + req.Body):final()
--send the hash to the client, closes connection, but thread is live until it ends
res:send(hash)
end)
end, port)
```
</blockquote>

## building
build with `make`, output is `./lullaby.so` or (win)`./lullaby.dll`
windows may work through msys2, install `mingw-w64-x86_64-lua` then run `make CC=gcc` it is not tested enough currently
you can install with `doas make install` which will install lullaby.so into /usr/local/lib/lua/5.X
install directory can be configured with `INSTALL=...` which defaults to /usr/local/lib/lua/, but may be wanted in /usr/lib64/lua/
lua version can be specified with `version=...`, similar to 5.1, 5.3, jit, the default it 5.4
for working on the code base, i recommend using bear to generate compile_commands.json [(as outlined here)](https://clangd.llvm.org/installation#compile_commandsjson) which should probably let your ide find the headers

[some docs](docs/)
## todo:
* better tests
* rewrite docs
* portability (memmem)
