Learning Outcomes

This week, you'll be learning the basics of the node framework Hapi:

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!)

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
