Hapi Access Watch plugin

Hapi Plugin for logging an analyzing web traffic using the AccessWatch service.

Installation

npm install --save access-watch-hapi 

Usage

The plugin is registered like any hapi plugin, on the server instance:

const server = new Hapi.Server();
server.register({
  register: AccessWatch,
  options: {
    // these are directly passed to access-watch-node
    apiKey: '{API-KEY}',
    // optionally pass a custom cache client here, ie
    // otherwise hapi's default is used
    cache: server.cache({
      cache: 'redis'
      expiresIn: 20 * 60 * 1000, // 20min ttl
      segment: 'accesswatch#'
    });

    // If the server runs behind a reverse proxy that sets the standard
    // forwarded headers. See the links below
    fwdHeaders: AccessWatch.fwdHeaders
  }
});

The config object is directly passed to access-watch-node. The only required parameter is apiKey. If your hapi server is behind a reverse proxy, you also need to set fwdHeaders. These are not set by default. Please see access-watch-node for details.

Debugging

To enable verbose logging pass {debug: {log: ['AccessWatch']}}
