54 <p>In Luan, a function call with one string argument doesn't require parenthesis, so <b>print("Hello World")</b> is the same as <b>print "Hello World"</b> and <b>require "luan:Io.luan"</b> is the same as <b>require("luan:Io.luan")</b>. Both <b>require</b> and <b>print</b> are functions.</p> |

56 <p>The <b>require</b> function takes a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uniform_resource_identifier">URI</a> as an argument. Examples of URIs are "<b>luan:Io.luan</b>" and "<b>file:hello.luan</b>". <b>require</b> is used to import a module, which is returned from the <b>require</b> function call. In the case above, we assign the module to the local variable <b>Io</b>. The function <b>print</b> is a member of this module. We could have done <b>Io.print("Hello World")</b> but instead we chose to assign <b>print</b> to a local variable and use that to call the function.</p> |
| 382 | 57 |
| 1647 | 58 <p>Luan starts with only one defined function: <b>require</b>. You will use <b>require</b> to import whatever you need. This is a little more work, but makes it clear in each file where each function comes from.</p> |

| 1652 | 94 <p>Now go back to the parent directory and do <b>luan luan:http/serve.luan src</b>. This will run the Luan web server on port 8080. Try going to <a href="http://localhost:8080/">http://localhost:8080/</a>. You should see the directory. If you click on <b>hi.html.luan</b> you will see the source. But if you remove the <b>.luan</b> and just go to <a href="http://localhost:8080/hi.html">http://localhost:8080/hi.html</a> then you will run the program which will generate the web page. In fact the page that you are currently looking at <b>tutorial.html</b> is generated from <a href="tutorial.html.luan">tutorial.html.luan</a>.</p> |
| 382 | 95 |
| 1651 | 96 <p>The Luan webserver expects the file to return a function and calls it to generate the page. Code of the form <b>%>...<%</b> writes its output to <b>Io.stdout</b> which by default is the standard output of the command line. So in the returned function one usually starts by setting <b>Io.stdout</b> to a <code>text_writer</code> which writes its output to the HTTP response (to the web browser).</p> |
| 382 | 97 |
| 1659 | 98 <p>You can find this example and others in the <a href="examples/">examples directory</a>. Take a look at <a href="examples/hi2.html.luan">hi2.html.luan</a> next. Remember to remove the <b>.luan</b> from the URL to run the code.</p> |
| 382 | 99 |
| 1647 | 100 <p>So now you have built your website and you want to publish it to the web. If you have your own domain, create a CNAME record for it pointing to <b>s1.luan.software</b>. If you don't have a domain, just use a domain like <b>bob.s1.luan.software</b> (anything of the form <b>*.s1.luan.software</b>). Assuming your directory is <b>src</b> and you will use the password <b>secret</b>, do the following from the command line: |
