title: Hapi description: Setting up Apollo Server with Hapi

This is the Hapi integration of Apollo Server. Apollo Server is a community-maintained open-source Apollo Server that works with all Node.js HTTP server frameworks: Express, Connect, Hapi, Koa and Restify. Read the docs.

npm install apollo-server-hapi

Usage

With the Hapi plugins graphqlHapi and graphiqlHapi you can pass a route object that includes options to be applied to the route. The example below enables CORS on the /graphql route.

The code below requires Hapi 17 or higher.

import Hapi from 'hapi';
import { graphqlHapi } from 'apollo-server-hapi';

const HOST = 'localhost';
const PORT = 3000;

async function StartServer() {
    const server = new Hapi.server({
        host: HOST,
        port: PORT,
    });

    await server.register({
        plugin: graphqlHapi,
        options: {
            path: '/graphql',
            graphqlOptions: {
                schema: myGraphQLSchema,
            },
            route: {
                cors: true,
            },
        },
    });

    try {
        await server.start();
    } catch (err) {
        console.log(`Error while starting server: ${err.message}`);
    }

    console.log(`Server running at: ${server.info.uri}`);
}

StartServer();

Principles

Apollo Server is built with the following principles in mind:

• By the community, for the community: Apollo Server's development is driven by the needs of developers
• Simplicity: by keeping things simple, Apollo Server is easier to use, easier to contribute to, and more secure
• Performance: Apollo Server is well-tested and production-ready - no modifications needed
