API generation tools for hapi

API

Exposes a single initialization method:

async init(config, errors) - initializes the module

• config - configuration object with the following properties:
  • ui - boolean, activates generation of UI for the API
  • document - define custom endpoints based on Swagger 2.0 or OpenAPI 3.0 document. Possible values are:
    • function - the function is called and it must return parsed API document
    • string - the string is parsed to create the API document
    • object - must be valid API document
    • anything else will generate empty API document
• result - the function returns object with the following properties:
  • uiRoutes - object containing hapi routes that handle the API ui
  • rpcRoutes - function, used to define RPC routes based on JOI validations
  • restRoutes - function, used to define attach handler for REST routes, based on the passed config.document

The functions in the result have the following signatures:

• function rpcRoutes(definitions)
  • definitions - array of objects with the following properties, used to describe each method:
    • tags - method tags
    • app - custom method properties
    • timeout - handler default timeout
    • method - method name
    • description - short method description
    • notes - long method description
    • params - joi validation of method params
    • result - joi validation of method result
    • validate - hapi route validate options
    • handler - hapi route handler
  • result - object containing hapi routes that handle the generated RPC routes
• function restRoutesApi({namespace, fn, object})
  • namespace - namespace of the handler function
  • fn - handler function
  • object - handler function binding for this
  • result - object containing hapi routes that handle the generated REST routes
