Ciao Oivvio, exactly as you said, Lua is the most popular choice, and so has the most distributed knowledge, discussions in mailing list, in IRC, in documentation, etc sent from mobile cell: +39 347 266 56 18 Giovanni Maruzzelli OpenTelecom.IT Il 05 mag 2017 11:40 AM, "Oivvio Polite" <mylists@polite.se> ha scritto: There's a page about script language choice on the wiki.

I kind of expected that. When jumping in to new technologies I always try to figure out what usage patterns are most well used/tested/documented rather than just picking whatever fits best with my old stack/experience. Tell me, does this preference for Lua hold when talking to FS over ESL as well? Or are FS-oldtimers more language agnostic in that scenario? Oivvio
For ESL i use perl, can't beat it, there's a module for fs-esl you can compile... But with it really doesn't matter the choice of language you use, as long as you're comfortable with and it's fast. On Fri, May 5, 2017 at 1:25 PM Oivvio Polite <mylists@polite.se> wrote:

HI，Oivvio It's really a choice "up to u". For me, i'm using javascript . because i'm too lazy to study a "new" script . And many my script for FS ,taken about 20-40ms to run. That's enough for my business. So, my advise, just choose a familiar script. don't care if it's lua. But if you want to study a "new" one. Lua is the first choice.

Choose the language where you are the most efficient as a developer. I use Perl exactly for that reason. On 5 May 2017 11:40, "Oivvio Polite" <mylists@polite.se> wrote:
