PDK

The Plugin Development Kit (PDK) is set of Lua functions and variables that can be used by plugins to implement their own logic.

The PDK is originally released in Kong 0.14.0.

The PDK is guaranteed to be forward-compatible from its 1.0.0 release and onward.

The Plugin Development Kit is accessible from the kong global variable, and various functionalities are namespaced under this table, such as kong.request, kong.log, etc.

kong.version

A human-readable string containing the version number of the currently running node.

Usage

print(kong.version) -- "2.0.0"

kong.version_num

An integral number representing the version number of the currently running node, useful for comparison and feature-existence checks.

Usage

if kong.version_num < 3004001 then -- 300.40.1 -> 3.4.1
  -- no support for Routes & Services
end

kong.configuration

A read-only table containing the configuration of the current Kong node, based on the configuration file and environment variables.

See kong.conf.default for details.

Comma-separated lists in the kong.conf file get promoted to arrays of strings in this table.

Usage

print(kong.configuration.prefix) -- "/usr/local/kong"
-- this table is read-only; the following throws an error:
kong.configuration.prefix = "foo"

Instance of Kong’s DAO (the kong.db module). Contains accessor objects to various entities.

A more thorough documentation of this DAO and new schema definitions is to be made available in the future.
