Hapi v17 Compatibility Release

[timcosta]

Overview

If you are not aware yet, Hapi v17 is making the transition from callbacks to async/await. This is a breaking change that will make your plugin no longer compatible with the Hapi API.

Changelog

Draft release notes can be found here: hapijs/hapi#3658

Target Release

The target release date for v17 is the beginning of November.

Tasks

• Reply to this to acknowledge that you are actively maintaining this module and are willing to update it
• Update plugin to be fully async/await compatible using the v17 branch from Hapi for testing

  Possible dev flow for updating

  • Clone Hapi
  • npm link within the Hapi repo
  • npm link hapi within your plugin repo
  • Your plugin will now be using v17 of Hapi branch for tests
• Release new major version of your plugin on npm. Please use a major version increment as this will be a breaking change and it would be terrible for it to sneak into current versions of Hapi.

Notes

• Support is being dropped for all versions of Node <8.0.0.
• Hapi v16 will continue to be supported for as long as there exists a Node LTS actively being supported that is not compatible with v17.
• Targeted release date is November 1st, 2017. Please try to have your plugin updated before then.

@timcosta Submitted a PR for transition to Hapi 17. Please review and comment. I will fix comments if any.

@gugwad thanks for contributing the PR - I've been slammed at work recently and just haven't had the time. Left a few minor comments.
