Hapi-csv

What

Converts the response to csv based on the Joi response schema when the Accept header includes text/csv or application/csv or the requested route ends with .csv

How

npm install hapi-csv

Register the hapi-csv plugin on the server

server.register({
	register: require('hapi-csv'),
	options: {
		maximumElementsInArray: 5,
		separator: ','
	}
}, function (err) {

	if (err) throw err;
	...
});

When you have a route on which a response schema is defined, like in the example below, the plugin will convert the response to csv when the Accept header includes text/csv or application/csv or the requested route ends with .csv

const routes = [{
    method: 'GET',
    path: '/users',
    handler: Users.getAll,
    config: {
        response: {
            schema: Joi.object().keys({
                first_name: Joi.string(),
                last_name: Joi.string(),
                age: Joi.number()
            })
        }
    }
}]

Either do GET /users with header Accept: text/csv or Accept: application/csv. Or do GET /users.csv. The header approach is prefered.
