What is the status of JSON-RPC on Lua?

[Eduardo Ochs]

Hi list,

what is the status of JSON-RPC on Lua? I tried to run this,

luarocks search json

and I took a look at the pages of the first 20-ish results... they
were either very old or no-so-old-but-luarocks-couldn't-install-them...

Any recommendations?
Any meta-recommendations?

Thanks in advance,
Eduardo Ochs...

Meta-recomendation: The json-rpc spec is TINY: https://www.jsonrpc.org/specification

I once implemented a rust crate which implemented it: https://docs.rs/jrpc/0.4.1/jrpc/

If I were to implement the same thing for lua I would lean on my pod library[1] for implementing the payload types and one of the numerous JSON libraries to convert from the pod table -> json string.

Hope that helps,

Rett
