Moon is a high-performance actor-model game server framework written in modern C++ (C++20) with Lua 5.4/5.5 as its embedded scripting engine. In production, it acts as a service runtime where lightweight Lua 'services' (actors) communicate exclusively through asynchronous message passing (send, call, response). The system provides a rich set of built-in services for database access (PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, MySQL), networking (TCP, UDP, KCP, WebSocket over ASIO), inter-node clustering, and AI pathfinding (via vendored Recast/Detour). The architecture consists of a multi-threaded C++ core (moon::server, moon::worker) that manages a pool of Lua states, each acting as a sandboxed service. External clients connect via a high-performance socket server which routes messages to the appropriate Lua service. Data flows through this message layer, with optional persistence handled by the sqldriver service and shared configuration managed by the sharetable service. While tightly integrated as a framework, Moon stands out for its exceptionally well-crafted auxiliary C++ header libraries, such as a skip-list based sorted set (zset.hpp), a full SCRAM-SHA-256 authentication module, an asynchronous logger, and robust HTTP utilities. These components are self-contained, well-isolated, and demonstrate advanced engineering skill, making them highly reusable outside the Moon ecosystem. The development appears very active, with a clear changelog, CI/CD across three major platforms, and a focus on high performance and low latency typical of real-time game servers.
