[ANN] ngx_openresty devel version 1.2.4.13 released

agentzh

Hello, folks!

I am happy to announce the new development version of ngx_openresty,
1.2.4.13:

    http://openresty.org/#Download

This is possibly the last development release in the 1.2.4.x series if
no regressions are reported.

Special thanks go to all our contributors and users for helping make this
happen!

Below is the complete change log for this release, as compared to the last
(development) release, 1.2.4.11:

 *   upgraded LuaNginxModule to 0.7.8.

     *   bugfix: ngx.req.set_body_file() might lead to memory issues
         because it directly used the storage of Lua strings
         allocated by the Lua GC (we should have allocated a new
         memory block on the Nginx side and copy the string data
         over).

 *   upgraded LuaRestyMySQLLibrary to 0.12.

     *   feature: convert the MySQL "newdecimal" typed fields to Lua
         numbers by default as requested by shedar.

     *   optimize: marked the internal Lua function "_recv_packet" as
         a "local" function.

OpenResty (aka. ngx_openresty) is a full-fledged web application server by
bundling the standard Nginx core, lots of 3rd-party Nginx modules and Lua
libraries, as well as most of their external dependencies. See OpenResty's
homepage for details:

    http://openresty.org/

We have been running extensive testing on our Amazon EC2 test cluster and
ensure that all the components (including the Nginx core) play well
together. The latest test report can always be found here:

Enjoy!

Very Cool.

how long until we get builds based on 1.2.5 (or 1.2.6)? I thought I had seen something in git?  I'm needing this feature from 1.2.5: " Feature: resolver now randomly rotates addresses returned from cache."   I haven't quite ported everything over to 100% Lua, yet ;)

Let me know how I can help.

Eventually you could use the lua-resty-dns library, do the lookup inside Lua and cache all the values it returns in a ngx.shared.DICT and always randomly return one.

But as you said, it probably requires some work to port over to full Lua.

Matthieu

Very soon I'll release the stable version 1.2.4.14, based on 1.2.4.13,
if no regressions are reported in the next few days or so.

After that I'll upgrade the Nginx core directly to 1.2.6 and start the
1.2.6.x branch of openresty :)

Running your business test suite (if any) against the latest devel
version of ngx_openresty will be extremely helpful to me :)
