How open source a module ?

[Stanislas Chollet]

Hello,

I'm new on your community. I want to open-source a new module for OpenResty. I saw that Luarocks is deprecated in favor of OPM.

What do you suggest ? Should I publish my module on both ? OPM & Luarocks ?

Moreover, I want to import my module on my OpenResty project (built over Docker), but, OPM & Luarocks are not available, Are there a suggested methods to use them in a docker project ? 

Regards,

Stan

I don't know that Luarocks is "deprecated" per-se. OPM is designed specifically for OpenResty modules, and with that comes a different feature set and engineering method (for example, project compilation via Makefiles or external commands is unsupported right now, see https://github.com/openresty/opm/issues/30).

It depends on your target audience, and if you want to maintain two distributions. IMO both Luarocks and OPM auth management are pretty straightforward; I tend to use both unless there's a limitation in one of the other.
