APIGEE Edge support for Nodejs Request module (v2.83.0)

[snehal_chakrabo]

Hi,

I observed an issue with while using nodejs request module v2.83.0. The import of this library fails due to a patch upgrade in one of the dependencies called hawk, where in usage of "const" has been introduced, and "const" is not supported by the current node version running on Edge cloud. I had to revert to an older version of request v2.65.0.

Is there a plan to upgrade the node version ? As this issue may pop for other npm modules as well.

Note : Link to a discussion on github for more details on the patch upgrade

Yes, Apigee is working on a plan to support the latest version of node and v8. We expect to announce something within the next 2 months or so.
