How to get pushed or pulled element on Deployd

Question

I'm interacting my deployd server app over HTTP.

I am adding to an array using $push.

Is there a way to get the value pushed to the array?

Example:

PUT /upvotes/foo

{
   "stories" : {"$push": "bar"}
}

On Put Script:

var pushedElement = ??? // I should be able to get "bar"

Thanks in advance.

Yes you can access it in the request's body.

The body is stored inside the context object - ctx. Try this in your put script event,

var pushedElement = ctx.body.stories.$push

From deployd's docs,

ctx.body {Object} : The body of the request if sent as application/json or application/x-www-form-urlencoded.
