Server middleware for falcor-hapi
Working usage example in falcor-hapi-demo repo
Minimalistic example
var FalcorServer = require('falcor-hapi');
var Hapi = require('hapi');
var TestRouter = <your router here>;
var app = new Hapi.Server();
app.connection({
host: "localhost",
port: 9090
});
app.route({
method: ['GET', 'POST'],
path: '/model.json',
handler: FalcorServer.dataSourceRoute(function(req, res) {
return new TestRouter();
})
});
app.start();
You can also register this module as an Hapi Plugin and use its provided Falcor handler.
- Provides restful router with cached routes out of the box.
- Both the Hapi Request and Reply are available within your routes as
this.reqandthis.reply. - Validates your routes with JOI.
- You can provide your own initialize method to the router.
- Alternately, you can provide your own Router class and the handler will mixin the logic to cache your routes and the base Falcor router class.
var Hapi = require('hapi');
var app = new Hapi.Server();
app.connection({
host: "localhost",
port: 9090
});
app.register(require('falcor-hapi'), function (err) {
if (err) {
console.error('Failed to load plugin:', err);
}
app.route({
method: ['GET', 'POST'],
path: '/model.json',
handler: {
falcor: {
routes: routes, // Your routes
cacheRoutes: true, // Whether to cache your routes, default to true
options: {debug: true}, // Option to give to Falcor router
initialize: function() { // Optional initialize method
this.foo = this.req.payload.meaningoflife || 42;
},
routerClass: MyRouterClass // Optional routerClass to use
}
}
});
app.start();
});
