LUA version

[Saint Michael]

I installed Openresty and it works fine. 

But if I type "lua" at the command line, a really old version of LUA shows up, 5.1.5, from 2006. 

What version of lua does openresty use?

can I upgrade LUA?

I want to program  in LUA outside Openresty and use the same version of the language.

OpenResty uses LuaJIT so you are stuck with 5.1 + most of 5.2. And that’s about it. Also you need to use OpenResty network primitives for all your network code, otherwise you will block the workers.
