=head1 Name

lua-resty-string - String utilities and common hash functions for ngx_lua and LuaJIT



This library is considered experimental and still under active development.

The API is still in flux and may change without notice.


=head1 Description

This library requires an nginx build with OpenSSL,
the L<ngx_lua module|http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpLuaModule>, and L<LuaJIT 2.0|http://luajit.org/luajit.html>.
