LuaRPC and Lua Shell in parallel

[Markus Korber]

Hi,

is it somehow possible to use luarpc and a standard Lua shell at the
same time on two different physical UART ports?  If I start the RPC
server in the Lua shell (rpc.server()) it blocks the shell forever.
However, I'd like to use the shell normally in addition to doing RPC
calls from the PC.

Thanks for your help!

Regards,
Markus Korber

That is not possible at the moment. It could be implemented, but it may lead to some interesting concurrency problems :)

You may wanna have a look at the rpc.peek / rpc.listen / rpc.dispatch functions:
http://www.eluaproject.net/doc/v0.8/en_refman_gen_rpc.html

You'll not be able to use that with the shell but you can have an application running and send rpc commands at the same time...


Best,
Thiago

One could modify the shell to be non-blocking and have a common
dispatcher handle input when its ready for either RPC or a shell
command, but as bogdan mentions there could be some complexities to
handle.
