This repo is for getting started building a tech stack with core tools like Node.js, Hapi v17 and MongoDB with Mongoose ORM

Full tutorial that accompanies this code is available on Medium.

$ node src/utils/seed.js

$ npm run start

• Add relationships with mongoose-autopopulate
• Add jsonwebtoken authentication

If you run into dyld: lazy symbol binding failed: Symbol not found error, then running npm rebuild bcrypt --build-from-source will fix it.

• We're using Mailgun because Mandrill is too expensive for what we need right now. No sense paying more than we have to for the same thing!

• You'll need to add a domain to your mailgun account.

• If so inclined you can generate a super secure secret key using: node -e "console.log(require('crypto').randomBytes(256).toString('base64'));"
