💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

Create a packed rock for distribution, packing sources or binaries. That's the whole mood. 🫶 No cap.

✨ OPTIONS ✨

Okay bestie, here's every flag and argument — yes, all of them, no skipping. The way that this list is complete? We love to see it. 💅

• --server <server> — Fetch rocks/rockspecs from this server (takes priority over config file). 👑
• --extra-servers <extra-server> — Fetch rocks/rockspecs from these servers in addition to the main server (overrides any entries in the config file). ✨
• --namespace <namespace> — Specify the luarocks server namespace to use. 🌸
• --lua-dir <prefix> — Specify the directory in which to install Lua if not found. 🦋
• --lua-version <ver> — Which Lua installation to use. Valid versions are: '5.1', '5.2', '5.3', '5.4', '5.5', 'jit' and 'jit52'. If not set, Lux will attempt to detect the Lua version:
  • From the current project, if it has an exact Lua version requirement.
  • From the Lua installation that is available on the PATH.
• --tree <tree> — Which tree to operate on. In a workspace, this can be used to specify a detached workspace tree. 🌈
• --cache-dir <cache-dir> — Specifies the cache directory, e.g. for luarocks manifests. 🍓
• --data-dir <data-dir> — Specifies the data directory, in which the default user install tree resides (e.g. ~/.local/share/lux). 💖
• --variables <variable> — Override config variables. Example: lx -v "LUA=/path/to/lua" .... 🎀
• --profile <profile> — The build profile to use when compiling packages. Default: release. Possible values:
  • release
  • dev
• --verbose — Display verbose output of commands executed, enabling DEBUG logs. To enable TRACE logs, set RUST_LOG=trace. 🔥
• --no-progress — Don't print any progress bars or spinners. 💀
• --no-prompt <NO_PROMPT> — Skip prompts, selecting the default option. Prompting is enabled by default in terminal/TTY environments. Possible values:
  • true
  • false
• --preset <preset> — Configure Lux for a specific environment. Valid presets are: 'nvim'. Possible values:
  • nvim: Configure Lux for Neovim plugins
• --nvim — [DEPRECATED] Configure lux for installing Neovim packages. Use --preset nvim instead. 🙈
• --no-tfa — Disable prompts for two-factor authentication (2FA) codes. It is strongly recommended to enable 2FA instead see (https://luarocks.org/settings/two-factor-auth). 🔐
• --timeout <seconds> — Timeout on network operations, in seconds. 0 means no timeout (wait forever). Default is 30. ⏰
• --max-jobs <MAX_JOBS> — Maximum buffer size for parallel jobs, such as downloading rockspecs and installing rocks. 0 means no limit. Default is 0. 🧚
• --no-luarc — Do not generate or update a .luarc.json file when building a project. 🫶
• --no-wrap-bin — Do not wrap Lua bin scripts. 🎀
• --user-agent <USER_AGENT> — The user agent to set when making web requests. Default is "lux/<version>". 🌐
• -h, --help — Print help (see a summary with '-h'). 💅
• [PACKAGE_OR_ROCKSPEC] — Path to a RockSpec or a package query for a package to pack. Prioritises local projects if in a workspace, then installed rocks. If there is no matching workspace member or installed rock, a rock will be downloaded and installed to a temporary directory. In case of multiple matches, the latest version will be packed. Examples: "pkg", "pkg@1.0.0", "pkg>=1.0.0", "/path/to/foo-1.0.0-1.rockspec". If not set, lux will attempt to pack either all workspace members or the current project. To pack a project, lux must be able to generate a release or dev RockSpec. 🌟
