Openresty documentation says that using luarocks is "strongly discouraged" because openresty now has its own package manager called OPM. However it is my experience that about 80% of "good stuff" hasn't been added to OPM yet at the time of this writing. I constantly keep running into situations where I want to add e.g. a Lua test framework to the image and find out that it is not in OPM and the ONLY way to install it is with luarocks.



I assume I am not the only one experiencing this problem. How do you people solve this? What bad things can really happen if I use luarocks to install stuff into openresty?



EDIT: the one type of answer that will be downvoted with a vengeance:



Spend a week learning how to create OPM packages, a month OPMifying the package you are interested in and all its non-OPM dependencies, another month going through the procedure of becoming an OPM contributor, and then a year waiting until all the packages you created get accepted into OPM.
