This library will take your RAML, parse it using raml-parser, and then set up routes in hapi to match your RAML.
##Installation
npm install hapi-raml
##Usage
Require in hapi-raml, and pass it a reference to your hapi server, a hashmap of your Controllers, and the path to your RAML.
When you're ready, call hookup(), and hapi-raml will link up your hapi routes to your Controllers, and return a
Promise that will tell you when it has finished. Then you can start your hapi server.
var HapiRaml = require('hapi-raml');
var server = new Hapi.Server();
var controllers = {};
controllers.MyController = new MyController();
var hapiRaml = new HapiRaml(server, controllers, './my.raml');
server.connection({ port: 3000 });
hapiRaml.hookup().then(function () {
server.start();
});
##Conventions
We borrow the collection/collection-item pattern from RAML and layer Controllers on top.
Your Controllers should feature at least the following functions, which should expect to receive the Hapi object
request, and a callback reply.
#####GET (API Root)/collection maps to list()
Returns an Array of instances of the matching Model for this Controller.
#####POST (API Root)/collection maps to create()
Create a single instance of the matching Model for this Controller.
#####GET (API Root)/collection/{id} maps to fetch()
Returns a single instance of the matching Model for this Controller.
#####DELETE (API Root)/collection/{id} maps to delete()
Deletes the matching Model for this Controller.
#####POST||PATCH (API Root)/collection/{id} maps to update()
Updates the matching Model for this Controller.
#####ANY (API Root)/collection/{id}/(anything) maps to (anything)()
Whatever you decide!
