resty-cli - Fancy command-line utilities for OpenResty.
The resty
command-line utility can be used to run OpenResty's Lua scripts directly off the command-line just like the lua
or luajit
command-line utilities. It can be used to create various command-line utilities using OpenResty Lua.
This tool works by creating a head-less nginx
instance,
disabling daemon, master_process, access_log, and other things it does
not need. No server {}
is configured hence no listening sockets
are involved at all.
The Lua code is initiated by the init_worker_by_lua
directive and run in the context of ngx.timer callback. So all of
ngx_lua's Lua APIs available in the ngx.timer callback context are
also available in the resty
utility. We may remove some of the
remaining limitations in the future though.
$ export PATH=/usr/local/openresty/bin:$PATH
$ which resty
/usr/local/openresty/bin/resty
$ resty -h
resty [options] [lua-file [args]]
Options:
-c num Set maximal connection count (default: 64).
-e prog Run the inlined Lua code in "prog".
--help Print this help.
--http-include path Include the specified file in the nginx http configuration block
(multiple instances are supported).
-I dir Add dir to the search paths for Lua libraries.
--main-include path Include the specified file in the nginx main configuration block
(multiple instances are supported).
--nginx Specify the nginx path (this option might be removed in the future).
-V Print version numbers and nginx configurations.
--valgrind Use valgrind to run nginx
--valgrind-opts Pass extra options to valgrind

$ resty -e 'print("hello")'
hello
$ time resty -e 'ngx.sleep(3) print("done\n")'
done
real 0m3.085s
user 0m0.071s
sys 0m0.010s
$ resty -e 'ngx.say(ngx.md5("hello"))'

$ resty -e 'io.stderr:write("hello world\n")' > /dev/null
hello world
To run the code example in lua-resty-mysql's "Synopsis" documentation section:
$ resty mysql-example.lua
connected to mysql.
table cats created.
3 rows inserted into table cats (last insert id: 1)
result: [{"name":"Bob","id":"1"},{"name":"","id":"2"},{"name":null,"id":"3"}]
where mysql-example.lua
is from lua-resty-mysql's docs.
Stdin also works (in addition to stdout and stderr):
$ resty -e 'print("got: ", io.stdin:read("*l"))'
hiya
got: hiya
where the first "hiya" line was entered from the keyboard.
"Light threads" also work:
$ time resty -e 'local ths = {}
for i = 1, 3 do
ths[i] = ngx.thread.spawn(function ()
ngx.sleep(3) ngx.say("done ", i)
end)
end
for i = 1, #ths do ngx.thread.wait(ths[i]) end'
done 1
done 2
done 3
real 0m3.073s
user 0m0.053s
sys 0m0.015s
User command-line arguments are also passed:
$ resty -e 'print(arg[1], ", ", arg[2])' hello world
hello, world
To check version numbers:
$ resty -V
resty 0.01
nginx version: openresty/1.7.7.2
built by gcc 4.8.3 20140911 (Red Hat 4.8.3-7) (GCC)
TLS SNI support enabled
configure arguments: --prefix=/usr/local/openresty/nginx ...
The resty
command-line utility is bundled and enabled in OpenResty 1.7.7.2+ by
default and is installed under <openresty-prefix>/bin/
by default.
If the OpenResty prefix is the default value (/usr/local/openresty
),
then you can just add /usr/local/openresty/bin
to your PATH environment:
export PATH=/usr/local/openresty/bin:$PATH
This project comes with a test suite powered by Perl's testing toolchain.
To run the test suite on your side, first install some of the CPAN modules required by the test scaffold:
sudo cpan Test::Base IPC::Run
Also, you need to make your nginx executable visible in your PATH environment:
export PATH=/path/to/your/nginx/sbin:$PATH
Then you can run the tests with the prove
command provided by Perl:
prove -r t
To run an individual test file, just specify the test file on the command-line, for instance,
prove t/resty/user-args.t
To run an individual test case in a test file, just (temporarily) add the line
--- ONLY
to the end of that test block, then run that particular test file as mentioned above.
