#lua-resty-vhost

Library for matching hostnames to values. Supports wildcard and .hostname.tld syntax in the same way as Nginx's server_name directive.

Keys beginning with . or *. will match apex and all sub-domains, longest match wins. Non-wildcard matches always win.

Regex matches and prefix wildcards are not supported.
