luarocks install local source

I am making edits to a file in the nn Library. It has a rockspec file. When I luarocks install that rockspec file, it downloads the git source. I want it to use my local source. The rockspec file has all sorts of compile time command line gibberish that I don't want to invoke manually. Something like $ luarocks install nn.rockspec --source='~/nn' would be great.

Solution

  • For local source, you need to go into the directory and issue:

    luarocks make rocks/nn-scm-1.rockspec
