hapi supports request validation out of the box using the joi module. Request path parameters, payloads, and querystring parameters can be validated with joi's simple,
'use strict'
const Hapi = require('hapi')
const Joi = require('joi')
const server = new Hapi.Server()
server.connection({ port: 8000 }) server.route({
method: ['POST','PUT'],
path: '/user/{id?}',
config: {
validate: {
params: Joi.object().keys({
id: Joi.number()
}),
payload: Joi.object().keys({
id: Joi.number()
email: Joi.string()
}).unknown(),
query: Joi.object().keys({
id: Joi.number()
})
},
handler: function(request, reply) {
reply({
params: request.params,
query: request.query
payload: request.payload
})
}
}
}) server.start(() => console.log(`Started at: ${server.info.uri}`))
