Hello,
I'm glad to announce a new release of NGINX JavaScript module (njs).
This release focuses on extending the modules functionality.
Notable new features:
- ngx.fetch() method implements a generic HTTP client which
does not depend on subrequests:
: example.js:
: function fetch(r) {
: ngx.fetch('http://nginx.org/')
: .then(reply => reply.text())
: .then(body => r.return(200, body))
: .catch(e => r.return(501, e.message));
: }
- js_header_filter directive. The directive allows changing arbitrary
header fields of a response header.
: nginx.conf:
: js_import foo.js;
:
: location / {
: js_header_filter foo.filter;
: proxy_passhttp://127.0.0.1:8081/;
: }
:
: foo.js:
: function filter(r) {
: var cookies = r.headersOut['Set-Cookie'];
: var len = r.args.len ? Number(r.args.len) : 0;
: r.headersOut['Set-Cookie'] = cookies.filter(v=>v.length > len);
: }
:
: export default {filter};
