Xavante

=======

Xavante is a Lua HTTP 1.1 Web server that uses a modular architecture based on

URI mapped handlers. Xavante currently offers a file handler, a redirect

handler and a WSAPI handler. Those are used for general files, URI remapping

and WSAPI applications respectively.

Xavante is free software and uses the same license as Lua.

You can install Xavante using LuaRocks:

    luarocks install xavante

The Xavante package provides just the Xavante libraries. To see Xavante in action

install wsapi-xavante from LuaRocks.

Dependencies

------------

Xavante dependencies can be separated by the used handlers:

* Lua 5.1, 5.2 or 5.3

* Copas 1.2.0

* LuaSocket 2.1

* LuaFileSystem 1.6 (file handler only)

The portability of Xavante is determined by its binary components

(LuaSocket and LuaFileSystem) and Lua itself. The other components are written

in Lua and are as portable as Lua itself.
