Angular 2 Universal with Hapi

This project was generated with universal-cli version 1.0.0-alpha.universal.2-2.

What is the difference with the express server?

By default, Angular Universal uses express as node server. However, it is possible to use any other server like Hapi. By the way, the Angular Universal team provides views engines for both express and hapi.

The two main differences between the hapi and the express implementations consist in:

  • the hapi dependencies installed in the package.json and which replace the express deps
  • the server.ts which initializes the hapi server instead of the express one

The project uses a copy of the hapi-engine made by bisubus. It will be updated to use the official angular2-hapi-engine once this pull request is merged.

npm i -g universal-cli
npm i
