Refresh local cache of a remote rocks server.
luarocks-admin refresh-cache [--from=<server>]
The flag --from indicates which server to use. If not given, the default
server set in the upload_server variable from the configuration
files is used instead. You need to either explicitly
pass a full URL to --from or configure an upload server in your
configuration file prior to using the refresh-cache command.
Refresh the cache of your main upload server:
luarocks-admin refresh-cache
Assuming your ~/.luarocks/config.lua file looks like this:
upload_server = "main"
upload_servers = {
main = {
http = "www.example.com/repos/main",
sftp = "myuser@example.com/var/www/repos/main"
},
dev = {
http = "www.example.com/repos/devel-rocks",
sftp = "myuser@example.com/var/www/repos/devel-rocks"
},
}you can specify which cache to refresh with the --from flag:
luarocks-admin refresh-cache --from=dev
