Command sudo luarocks install lapis does not work by default on Mac: Error: No results matching query were found.

Command sudo luarocks install --server=http://rocks.moonscript.org lapis works on Mac.

I think this should be mentioned on moonrocks site and/or on lapis site.

Had the same issue. Thank you @starius for sharing your solution.

This shouldn't be happening, how old is your version of luarocks? The default luarocks should point to luarocks.org, which is now what rocks.moonscript.org was.

Seems to be resolved when using a more recent version (luarocks 2.2.1).
