centos7.4 + lua-5.1 + luarocks-2.3 + ipython-5.1 install failed

[gitbeyond]

I'm in centos7.4 get failed. I'm already install zeromq zeromq-devel. dkjson and uuid install succeed.

Please give me your help.

Hello, since this project is dead, I was going to refer you to Jupyter. But I see that they refer to this repo! And another repo has forked this (IPyLua, but it also seems abandoned?!

In trying to revive this, I was confronted by errors related to these bugs:

• compile fails with github libzmg due to missing zmq_event_t zeromq/cppzmq#40
• Failed build with latest LuaJIT openresty/lua-cjson#21

The world has changed a lot since I made this 5 years ago, and the Lua bindings are just as old. I'd probably check what Jupyter has been up to and us the now official lzmq library

I will be sending over some gists soon that get everything built in a Dockerfile, but I don't really have a way to test it all right now. Let me know how it goes!

This gist has two files... one is a Dockerfile that shows all the versions and actions. The other is a patch for lua-zmq .

Thank you for your answer.I tried other lua kernels, but none of them worked.I just want a lua ipython tool that implements code tips.But it didn't work out.

Well your issue post has inspired me to re-explore this project a bit. IPython and Jupyter have definitely flourished in the past 5 years....
