Peel is a simple library to help with testing and development of modular plugin based Hapi servers. It simply checks if your module is being required (by checking module.parent). If your module is not being required, it will create a Hapi server, register your plugin module, and pass back the server object for you to start the server with.

Peel fully expects you follow the Hapi plugin interface conventions. This allows you to use your plugin module as a true plugin or directly with Peel.

npm install hapi-peel

The only special behavior that exists if if you choose not to pass in a callback to Peel.create, which will auto start the Hapi server. Otherwise you have full control over when the server starts.

var Peel = require('hapi-peel');

// Hapi plugin config
// exports.register = function () {}

Peel.create(module, {
  port: 8080
});

Creates Hapi server if not required, otherwise calls back with no server.

module is required, as well as config.

config approximates Hapi's server arguments host, port, options:

• host - optional
• port - optional
• config - optional
