<h2><a name="overview"></a>Overview</h2>
|

<p>
|
|
LuaSQL is a simple interface from Lua to a DBMS. It enables a Lua program to:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li> Connect to ODBC, ADO, Oracle, MySQL, SQLite, JDBC, and PostgreSQL databases;</li>
|
|
<li> Execute arbitrary SQL statements;</li>
|
|
<li> Retrieve results in a row-by-row cursor fashion.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
LuaSQL is free software and uses the same <a href="license.html">license</a>
|
|
as Lua 5.0.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|

<h4>LuaSQL 2.0</h4>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Version 2.0 was redesigned by Roberto Ierusalimschy, André Carregal
|
|
and Tomás Guisasola as part of the
|
|
<a href="http://www.keplerproject.org">Kepler Project</a>.
|
|
The implementation is compatible with Lua 5.0 and was coded by
|
|
Tomás Guisasola, Eduardo Quintão, Thiago Ponte, Fabio Mascarenhas and
|
|
Danilo Tuler, with many invaluable contributions by Michael Roth, Tiago Dionizio
|
|
and Leonardo Godinho.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h4>LuaSQL 1.0</h4>
|
|
<p>
|
|
LuaSQL was designed by Pedro Miller Rabinovitch and Roberto
|
|
Ierusalimschy.
|
|
The first implementation was compatible with Lua 4.0a.
|
|
Many modifications were made but not distributed by Diego Nehab (ODBC),
|
|
Carlos Cassino, Tomás Guisasola and Eduardo Quintão (PostgreSQL).
|
|
