Using Maven as build tool for Lua programs

I need a build tool for compiling,testing, reporting and the deployment of Lua programs.

I chose Maven 2 because of our Polarion version supports it. Unfortunately, I couldn't find any Maven plugins/archetypes for Lua.

As I am a newbie in Maven I want to know whether it is difficult to write a customized Lua plugin for Maven.

You can hook up the maven-compiler-plugin with any plexus compiler (reference here).

So I guess the standard way would be to write a plexus wrapper for the lua compiler using the Plexus Compiler API
