luarocks install - Install a rock.
luarocks install [--keep] [--only-deps] {<rock> | <name> [<version>]}
Argument may be the name of a rock to be fetched from a server, with optional version, or the direct URL or filename of a rockspec. In case of more than one rock matching the request, the install
command favors binary rocks.
Unless --keep
is passed, other versions of the rock are removed after installing the new one.
If --only-deps
is passed, the rock itself is not installed, but its dependencies are.
Installing a rock:
luarocks install luasocket
Installing a specific version of a rock:
luarocks install luasocket 3.0rc1
Installing a rock ignoring its dependencies:
luarocks install busted --deps-mode=none
