I have run out of patience with this problem and have turned to this community for help. I am trying to install luafilesystem and luacheck from luarocks and am only getting errors with anything I try.
I fresh installed lua version 5.3.0 and am using a visual studio admin prompt (so, cl is defined and ready to go). When I execute the install luarocks install luafilesystem it chucks an error:
Setting environment for using Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 x64 tools.

You need use lua53.lib file. in config.lua/config-5.3 file. – moteus – 2016-10-26T13:54:24.350
I was unable to solve it with lua 5.3, but was easy with the 5.1 version bundled in the LuaRocks zip file. – Jaime – 2017-07-16T11:36:12.767
