hapi-rethinkdbdash v0.2.0

hapi-rethinkdbdash

A Hapi plugin for the rethinkdbdash driver by neumino.

Installation

Install the plugin, Hapi, and rethinkdbdash:

npm install --save hapi rethinkdbdash hapi-rethinkdbdash

Registering the plugin

The options you pass to the plugin are passed directly to rethinkdbdash under the hood with no modifications or adulterations. See rethinkdbdash documentation for more info.

const Hapi = require('hapi')
const server = new Hapi.Server()
const RethinkDBDash = require('hapi-rethinkdbdash')

/* Connect to the default instance on localhost at port 28015. */
server.register(RethinkDBDash, (err) => {
  if (err) throw err
  console.log('Time for some connection pooling RethinkDB awesomeness!')
})

Note: If you specify options.db then that will be the default database for the connection. Otherwise, you'll need to specify r.db('my_database') before you make any queries to a table.

Using the plugin

The connection is exposed as r on the plugin so this is all you need to do to access it in a handler:

server.route({
  method: 'GET',
  path: '/',

  /* Get all entries from the 'widgets' table */
  handler: (request, reply) => {
    const r = server.plugins['hapi-rethinkdbdash'].r

    r.table('widgets').run()
      .then(widgets => reply(widgets))
  }
})
