<h2>Overview</h2>
<p><em>WSAPI</em> is an API that abstracts the web server from Lua web applications. By coding
against WSAPI your application can run on any of the supported servers and
interfaces (currently CGI, FastCGI and Xavante, on Windows and UNIX-based systems).</p>
<p>WSAPI provides a set of helper libraries that help with request processing
and output buffering. You can also write applications that act as filters that
provide some kind of service to other applications, such as authentication,
file uploads, request isolation, or multiplexing.</p>
<p>WSAPI's main influence is Ruby's <a href="http://rack.rubyforge.org/">Rack</a> framework, but it was
also influenced by Python's <a href="http://wsgi.org/wsgi">WSGI</a> (PEP 333). It's not a direct
clone of either of them, though, and tries to follow standard Lua idioms.</p>
<h2>Status</h2>
<p>Current version is 1.0. It was developed for Lua 5.1.</p>
<h2>Download</h2>
<p>WSAPI can be downloaded from its <a href="http://luaforge.net/projects/wsapi/">LuaForge</a> page.
You can also get WSAPI using <a href="http://luarocks.org">LuaRocks</a>:</p>
<pre class="example">
luarocks install wsapi
</pre>
<h2>CVS and Bug Tracker</h2>
<p>WSAPI CVS and bug tracker are available at its <a href="http://luaforge.net/projects/wsapi/">LuaForge</a> page.</p>
