Bug#886866: ITP: node-dnscache -- Dns cache for Node.js



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Paolo Greppi <paolo.greppi@libpf.com>

* Package name    : node-dnscache
  Version         : 1.0.1
  Upstream Author : Vinit Sacheti <vsacheti@yahoo.com>
* URL             : https://github.com/yahoo/dnscache#readme

  Programming Lang: JavaScript
  Description     : Dns cache for Node.js

 This Node.js module wraps the dns module methods and caches the
 most used/most recent dns calls, to avoid the network delay and
 improve the performance.
 .
 Every call to a dns method is first looked into the local cache,
 in case of cache hit the value from cache is returned,
 in case of cache miss the original dns call is made and the
 return value is cached in the local cache.
 .
 Node.js is an event-based server-side JavaScript engine.

This is required for node-yarnpkg, see ITP:
https://bugs.debian.org/843021

My intention is to package it within the JavaScript maintainers team.

The repo will be on salsa:
https://salsa.debian.org/js-team/node-dnscache
