How to do hapijs reverse routing?

I'm searching for a reverse routing feature for Hapijs. For example, if I have the route /route/{param1}/{param2} named route_name, I want a function:

reverseRoute('route_name', {param1: 'value1', param2: 'value2'});

which returns /route/value1/value2

I've been googling for a while but cannot find a solution.

Any suggestions?

Solution

  • I put together a plugin called hapi-to that can do this. It manages params, query strings, wildcards and multi-params too.

    With your example, it would work like:

    request.to('route_name', { params: {param1: 'value1', param2: 'value2'} }

    Take a look at the tests for some more examples of how it can be used .
