kong.node

Node-level utilities.

kong.node.get_id()

Returns the ID used by this node to describe itself.

Returns

  • string: The v4 UUID used by this node as its ID.

Usage

  1. local id = kong.node.get_id()

kong.node.get_memory_stats([unit[, scale]])

Returns memory usage statistics about this node.

Parameters

  • unit (string, optional): The unit that memory is reported in. Can be any of b/B, k/K, m/M, or g/G for bytes, kibibytes, mebibytes, or gibibytes, respectively. Defaults to b (bytes).
  • scale (number, optional): The number of digits to the right of the decimal point. Defaults to 2.

Returns

  • table: A table containing memory usage statistics for this node. If unit is b/B (the default), reported values are Lua numbers. Otherwise, reported values are strings with the unit as a suffix.

Usage

  1. local res = kong.node.get_memory_stats()
  2. -- res will have the following structure:
  3. {
  4.   lua_shared_dicts = {
  5.     kong = {
  6.       allocated_slabs = 12288,
  7.       capacity = 24576
  8.     },
  9.     kong_db_cache = {
  10.       allocated_slabs = 12288,
  11.       capacity = 12288
  12.     }
  13.   },
  14.   workers_lua_vms = {
  15.     {
  16.       http_allocated_gc = 1102,
  17.       pid = 18004
  18.     },
  19.     {
  20.       http_allocated_gc = 1102,
  21.       pid = 18005
  22.     }
  23.   }
  24. }
  26. local res = kong.node.get_memory_stats("k", 1)
  27. -- res will have the following structure:
  28. {
  29.   lua_shared_dicts = {
  30.     kong = {
  31.       allocated_slabs = "12.0 KiB",
  32.       capacity = "24.0 KiB",
  33.     },

  35.       allocated_slabs = "12.0 KiB",
  36.       capacity = "12.0 KiB",
  37.     }
  38.   },
  39.   workers_lua_vms = {
  40.     {
  41.       http_allocated_gc = "1.1 KiB",
  42.       pid = 18004
  43.     },
  44.     {
  45.       http_allocated_gc = "1.1 KiB",
  46.       pid = 18005
  47.     }
  48.   }
  49. }
