For example `luarocks config variables.LDAP_DIR /usr/local/opt/openldap/`. + The general solution: `luarocks` supports custom compile-time dependency directories(from this [link](https://github.com/luarocks/luarocks/wiki/Config-file-format)). Use a third-party tool to install the missing package and add its installation directory to the `luarocks`'s variables table. The method is applied to macOS, Ubuntu, CentOS and other operating systems, and the specific solution for macOS are given here for reference only. + + Solution for macOS: + + 1. Install `openldap` with `brew install openldap`; + 2. Locate installation directory with `brew --prefix openldap`; + 3. Add the path to the project configuration file(choose one of the following two methods): + 1.

Solution B: Of course, you can also choose to change the default configuration file of luarocks directly, execute the 'cat ~/.luarocks/config-5.1.lua' command, and then add the installation directory of 'openldap' to the file; + 3.
