Hi,
Does anyone have any experience with Xavante and WSAPI? I'm a complete noob in web dev and I've been looking for something like Ruby's Sinatra in Lua. There exists such a project on Github called Mercury (nrk/mercury), but it's been abandoned for almost a decade.
I tried to fix it up and see if I could get it working (I have no reason to believe it was nonworking at last commit) but after fixing some module environments to work in 5.1 I found only Xavante errors.
/usr/local/share/lua/5.1/wsapi/common.lua:135: not a valid WSAPI application
I tried to see if I could reverse engineer the program and build it back from the bottom up (it seemed like a very simple program if you were familiar with HTTP and Xavante/WSAPI, which I am not) but I've been downright unable to find any xavante or wsapi documentation beyond the single page example on Xavante's kepler project site (what is an application and what makes one valid?). Do any full sites even exist in Xavante/WSAPI in 2020? What ever happened to the Kepler project?
I recognize I've basically puked 30 million questions up here but my real one question is this:
Is there any detailed guide to using Xavante+WSAPI to create a Lua web app?
Sorry if I've formatted my email wrong or used this mailing list wrong, this is my first 'post'
