Is there anything similar in the Lua world? I'm running Luci on
OpenWRT. It would be neat to incorporate a web terminal into Luci.
Not a terminal, but my multitask environment for Lua,
https://github.com/xopxe/Lumen
, comes with a toy http server with support for websockets, and a
simple lua shell that can be accessed from a sample http page :)
Just run the tests/test-http-server.lua, and point your browser to
localhost:8080/shell.html
The shell can be also accessed over a plain socket, obviously, but I
could not find a telnet signaling libray in pure Lua, nor have i
looked how complicated is that.
Lumen works pretty good under OpenWRT, as it can run only depending
on nixio, which is the library behind luci. I use it pretty a lot.
It's not what you need, but you could pick some bits from there.
Personally, I will be watching this thread closely :)
