File-tree walk

rgomes

I need to enumerate all the items in the HTTP proxy cache which requires walking the cache directory tree. There's nothing in core Lua for traversing a file tree though there are several posted solutions (luafilesystem, lposix, the "ex" API).

Is there a preferred/best solution to this problem, in the opinions of the people here?

You can use luafilesystem, just keep in mind that the operation will
be blocking.
