[Freeswitch-users] stop a running lua script from luarun

[Areski]

I use to send a custom even to stop a lua script which run an infinite loop
:
luarun myscript.lua stop

if argv[1] then
    i=1
    while argv[i] do
        if argv[i] == "stop" then
            --Send Stop message
            local event = freeswitch.Event("custom", "lua::stop_event")
            event:addHeader("Action", "stop")
            event:fire()
            logger("Sent stop message to lua script")
            return
        end
        i=i+1
    end
    return
end

and then in the loop I listen for those events!
