Description

Description

I'd like to process json requests from Syncthing's REST API to get the sync status of files open in Micro. It appears that there's no Lua or Go module support for this in Micro. Could a JSON library be added for Lua scripts?

The issue names no files or tests; begin by locating Micro's Lua scripting and Go module support, then trace how scripts can access external data. Done means Lua scripts can parse JSON responses from Syncthing's REST API and inspect file sync status.
