Learn Hapi, Sequelize and Tweenmax

hapi is a battle-tested, full-featured, framework for building web applications and services with Node.js. With integrated support for essentials like authentication, caching and validation, and a powerful plugin system, hapi is ideal for projects and teams of any size.

This course will introduce hapi, some of it’s plugins, and guide you through many of hapi’s core features.

A rich framework for building applications and services hapi enables developers to focus on writing reusable application logic instead of spending time building infrastructure.

View engines, or template engines, allow you to maintain a clean separation between your presentation layer and the rest of your application. This video will demonstrate how to use the vision plugin with hapi to enable template support.

hapi does not support serving static files out of the box. Instead it relies on a module called Inert. This lesson will cover serving static files using Inert's custom handlers.

Routing is a fundamental aspect of any framework. In this lesson, you'll learn how to use path parameters in hapi's router. We'll also touch on how the router uses specificity to order routes internally.

AngularJS is an open-source JavaScript framework, maintained by Google, that assists with running single-page applications. Its goal is to augment web-based applications with model–view–controller (MVC) capability, in an effort to make both development and testing easier.

hapi doesn't ship with logging support baked in. Luckily, hapi's rich plugin ecosystem includes everything needed to configure logging for your application. This video will introduce good, a process monitor for hapi, and good-console, a reporter for good that outputs to standard out.

hapi makes handling POST and PUT payloads easy by buffering and parsing them automatically without requiring additional modules or middleware. This video will demonstrate how to handle JSON and form based request payloads via hapi's route configuration.

hapi.js - POST and PUT request payloads

hapi's reply interface is one of it's most powerful features. It's smart enough to detect and serialize objects, buffers, promises and even streams. This video will demonstrate first hand how to use the reply method to send your data to the client, no matter the format.

hapi.js - Replying to Requests

Think of hapi's `reply()` function as "what you want to say" and the `response` object as "how you want to say it". While `reply` controls the payload sent to the client, the `response` object will allow you to control how the client interprets the payload by manipulating status code, content type, state and more.

hapi.js - Using the response object

hapi automatically responds with JSON for any error passed to a route's `reply()` method. But what if your application needs errors rendered in HTML? This lesson shows how to implement friendly HTML error messages using hapi extension events.

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, yet powerful, notation. This lesson covers the basics of validating requests using joi.

hapi.js - Request Validation with Joi

hapi has built-in support for parsing cookies from a request headers, and writing cookies to a response, making state management easy and straight-forward. It even has built in support for cookie encryption and auto detects when a cookie contains JSON, parsing or stringifying automatically.

hapi is a rock solid server framework for Node.js. Its focus on modularity and configuration-over-convention makes it the perfect match for any size development team. This video will introduce you to hapi by showing you the bare minimum needed to run a hapi server.

React is one of the web’s most popular frameworks for building JavaScript applications. 

If you know what you’re doing, React can drastically simplify how you build, use, and maintain code.

Whether you’re a React newbie or you’re ready for advanced techniques, you can level-up with egghead. Explore our in-depth courses, lessons, and community resources to build more powerful applications and crack open your career.

React's use of the VirtualDOM can make it confusing on how to get actual elements to use in animation libraries like TweenMax. This video shows how to use this.getDOMNode() and this.refs and hook them in to TweenMax to satisfy all of your advanced animation needs.

Using TweenMax with React

Instead of using middlware, hapi provides a number of points during the lifecycle of a request that you can hook-in to provide additional functionality, called "extension events". This lesson will give you an introduction to using extension events, and show how they can be used to manipulate the request or response in-flight.

Sequelize attribute getters and setters are a convenient way to encapsulate extra logic for model properties. In this video, we'll cover adding getters and setters to enhance and even virtualize a column.

Sequelize: Getters, Setters and Virtual Columns

Models in the Node.js ORM, Sequelize, can be expanded with both class level and instance level functions. This video will show you how to extend your models to add helpers or business logic, and explain the methods execution scope.
