Methods

An overview of available hapi toolkit decorations.

h.pdf(pdf-content, filename)

Creates a PDF response including the PDF related content type and HTTP headers allowing a custom filename.

The filename defaults to download.

handler: async (_, h) => {
  const content = await createPdfContent()
  return h.pdf(content, 'filename.pdf')
}

h.status(code)

Shortcut to respond with just an HTTP status code.

handler: (_, h) => {
  return h.status(204)
}

h.cookie(key, value, options)

Sets a cookie for the given key-value-pair. It's a convenience method for h.state.

handler: (_, h) => {
  return
    h.cookie('userId', '1')
     .cookie('username', 'Marcus')
     .continue
}

h.header(key, value, options)

Set a response header for the given key-value-pair. This method provides a unified interface to set response headers, no matter if the response is a hapi response object or a boom error instance:

handler: (_, h) => {
  return h
    .header('content-type', 'text/html')
    .header('api-key', 'secret-api-key')
    .continue
}

The accepted options are the same as provided by hapi itself.

h.headers()

Returns an object containing the response headers. This method provides a unified interface to set response headers, no matter if the response is a hapi response object or a boom error instance:

handler: (_, h) => {
  const responseHeaders = h.headers()

  return h.continue
}

h.isView()

Determines whether the response is a rendered view:

handler: (_, h) => {
  if (h.isView()) {
    // handle view response
  }

  return h.continue
}
