lua-resty-http pipelining requests from an external file

gmadarm

When using the request_pipeline example in lua-resty-http (https://github.com/pintsized/lua-resty-http#request_pipeline), how can I import an external resource (e.g. an external text file or Redis list) as the table of param tables used to pipeline requests instead of hard coding the requests into the code?

thanks!

Hi,

The table of parameters to "request_pipeline" is just a Lua table. You can populate it however you like, by loading values from a external resource or hardcoding inline as per the example documentation. Where are you getting stuck? Is the question "how do I load data from a Redis list?" or are you unsure about the syntax of "request_pipeline" ?

Hi,

My question is, say for example my external file looks like:

/pathTo/request1.php
/pathTo/request2.php
/pathTo/request3.php
/pathTo/request4.php

how do I consume that from within openresty into the correct format to use as part of a pipelined request.
