luchador
========

Luchador is a project that utilizes the speed of Lua and Memcached to bring page caching to Nginx. It does this in an easy to configure fashion unlike Varnish.

The goal of Luchador is to be easy to use as well as close in speed with Varnish.

How to setup
============

Dependencies

Luchador has a few dependencies:
* luarocks
* lzlib
* lua-messagepack
* lua-resty-memcached (https://github.com/agentzh/lua-resty-memcached/archive/v#{lua_memcached_version}.tar.gz)
* nginx with lua configured
* luajit
* lua-nginx-module https://github.com/openresty/lua-nginx-module
