Unofficial Evernote SDK for Lua

Unofficial Evernote SDK for Lua

Evernote API version 1.25

Overview

This SDK contains Evernote cloud API in Lua language generated from the Thrift interface released by Evernote as well as the thrift runtime library mainly for Lua 5.1 and LuaJIT.

Prerequisites

LuaSocket and LuaSec are required for secure HTTP requests to Evernote. For Ubuntu users you need to install Luarocks first and then install the above two rocks by luarocks through the following commands:

sudo apt-get install luarocks
sudo luarocks install luasocket luasec

Building & Testing

You also need to build some binary objects for the thrift runtime library. A Makefile is provided in the thrift directory to simplify this task.

cd thrift && make

You can test the thrift runtime for both client side and server side with these commands:

cd ../test && lua5.1 ./test_basic_server.lua &
lua5.1 ./test_basic_client.lua

if everything goes right the server and client will both return quietly.

To test evernote client you need the busted test framework which is also provided as a rock in luarocks which can be installed by:

sudo luarocks install busted

You need to obtain a developer token here to test evernote client. After replacing the faked authToken in test_evernote_client.lua with your own developer token just run this command:

cd test && busted test_evernote_client.lua
