Hapi Mongoose Connector

Mongoose connector plugin for the hapi framework.

Installation

npm install --save @ideapod/hapi-mongoose-connector

Configuration

The plugin accepts an options object where:

• uri: The URI to connect to the MongoDB instance.

const plugin = {
  register: HapiMongooseConnector,
  options: {
    uri: 'mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017/test'
  }
};

If options.uri is not set, MongoDB checks the following environment variables in this order:

• MONGODB_URI (required): Contains the full MongoDB URI. Example: mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017/test.
• MONGODB_HOST (required), MONGODB_PORT (required), MONGODB_DATABASE (optional): The plugin uses these variables to construct the URI. Examples: 127.0.0.1, 27017, test.

If options.uri is not set and none of these environment variables are set, an error is thrown on registration.

Usage

The plugin can be registered as a hapi plugin. Example:

const Hapi = require('hapi');
const HapiMongooseConnector = require('@ideapod/hapi-mongoose-connector');

const server = new Hapi.Server();
server.connection();

const plugin = {
  register: HapiMongooseConnector,
  options: {
    uri: 'mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017/test'
  }
};

server.register(plugin, (err) => {
  // ...
});

Connection is exposed and can be accessed through the server object:

const connection = server.plugins['hapi-mongoose-connector'].connection;
