Nginx [nginx-announce] njs-0.5.2

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:
- js_body_filter directive. The directive allows changing the
response body.
: nginx.conf:
: js_import foo.js;
:
: location / {
: js_body_filter foo.to_lower;
: proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8081/;
: }
:
: foo.js:
: function to_lower(r, data, flags) {
: r.sendBuffer(data.toLowerCase(), flags);
: }
:
: export default {to_lower};
- njs.on('exit') callback. The "exit" hook allows to implement
some cleanup logic before the VM instance is destroyed.
: foo.js:
: function handler(r) {
: njs.on('exit', () => {
: r.warn("DONE");
: });
: }
