You can use the mysql driver as follows once you install luasql-mysql: local sql = require “luasql.mysql” This is well documented[1] on the luasql project page. The package is included in the current batteries release found on luadist.org[2] so you just need to download that. pd [1] http://www.keplerproject.org/luasql/manual.html#drivers [2] https://github.com/LuaDist/Binaries/archive/LuaDist-batteries-0.9.8-Windows-x86.zip
