Hi All,
I have a small script that reads and parses 2 text files. I wanted to create a luarock which packs both the script and static resources to be parsed. How should I organize my "build" section in rockspec file?

Currently I have the following:

 build = {
   type = "builtin",
   modules = {
       myscript = "src/lua-myscript.lua"
   },   
   copy_directories = {"data"}
}

And the package dir sctructure:

lua-myscript-1.0/
    scr/
        lua-myascript.lua
    data/
        data1.txt
        data2.txt


I thought that "copy_directories" will do the work, but it didn't. The module complains that it can't find the resources. Is there a predefined path where luarocks installs all the "copy_directories" data? How should I do it correctly?

Best,
Pavel
