Usage of the artnet. Lua file? #1

Hi love the repo!

I'm looking into Lua for artnet and found your repo. I was wondering can the artnet lua file be used outside of nodemcu? I am looking to run it in a desktop script. Also what is the license of it?

Also have you seen any other implementations of artnet for lua? This is the only one I've seen.

Thank you for your time.

Hi!

Development on this repo is very much stopped in favor of https://github.com/qmsk/esp, which contains an equivalent but more full-featured C implementation of Art-NET for esp-idf/FreeRTOS.

The artnet.lua module uses the NodeMCU net module, which is probably entirely specific to nodemcu. To use it on a desktop platform, you would need to port it to use something like https://lunarmodules.github.io/luasocket/

If you're interested in using the artnet.lua as a base for further development then by all means, that would be awesome! The best way would presumably be for me to push a LICENSE file for this repo. Would MIT work for you?

After that, I would probably just mark this repo as archived, as I don't intend to work on it any further.
