Learning Outcomes

The learning outcomes for this week are a slightly more broad than the previous weeks. You'll be learning the basics of Hapi, but you'll also be bringing lots of technologies that you've learnt together with a goal to structure your project in a more modular fashion.

Core Learning Outcomes

• Set up a Hapi Server (get it listening on a port of your choice)
• Set up some routes using server.route([....])
• Get data out of the request params and payload
• Set up a route with a dynamic url (i.e. one route that can handle a number of different requests)
• Register Plugins using the server.register([....], cb) method
• Serve static files (like css or js files) using the Inert plugin
• Serve html templates using Handlebars and Hapi's Vision plugin
• Validate a user's input using the Joi plugin
• Set up a basic user login with the Hapi Auth Basic plugin
• Test all of these using tape (Hapi has shot built in so it's super nice to test!)
• Set up SASS to modularise your css using @import

If you can do all of these, congratulations!!

Bonus Learning Outcomes

• Understand and use Handlebars partials, layouts and helpers
• Organise a 'feature' of your app into a Hapi plugin
• Understand and use SASS variables, mixins and nesting
• Use SASS control directives (like @for, @if and @each) to set up a group of css selectors
