Introduction

viya-appserverjs is an app server designed for rapid development and deployment of SAS Viya applications. The server uses hapijs to do all the heavy lifting. viya-appserverjs takes advantage of the great configurabilty of hapijs.

The key features are:

1. Supports authentication using authorization_code flow and implicit flow
2. Supports serving up static content
3. Can be extended with custom routes (suggest using @sassoftware/viya-apiserverjs for this)
4. Supports TLS

Basic Steps

1. Build your app
2. Obtain a clientid and clientsecret - see Managing clientids for instructions on how to create clientid
3. Configure the server using a combination of environment variables, env files and Dockerfile
4. Start the server with a simple command

npx @sassoftware/viya-appserverjs  --env=your-env-envfile --docker=your-Dockerfile --appenv=your-appenv.js-file
