There's no formal documentation, but you can see some examples here:
https://github.com/apache/trafficserver/tree/master/plugins/experimental/lua/examples
These examples cover all the functionality that is currently supported. For
your use case, we would need to add support for transformations, which we don't
currently have. I'm slowly working on improving the Lua plugin, but I'd be very
happy to help if you were interested in enhancing it.
