Hapi (Javascript) Integration Guide

The HAPI Prerender plugin prerenders JavaScript-heavy pages for SEO, delivering static HTML to search engine crawlers. It supports Prerender.io’s hosted service or custom servers, improving SEO for SPAs without altering the app’s structure. It also includes caching hooks like beforeRender and afterRender for optimized performance.

Please note that this integration is community-maintained, not officially supported by Prerender. We only provide a guide for integrating Prerender with their service.

You'll find installation instructions in the README file here: https://github.com/wrangr/hapi-prerender

 

Verify Your Installation

After integration, it’s important to verify that everything is working as expected. We’ve provided an easy-to-follow guide to help you test your setup and confirm that Prerender is functioning properly.

Or, test with curl command with a custom User-Agent header:

curl -v -A googlebot www.yourpage.com/

 

Is the Prerender integration working on other pages?

Test if the Prerender integration works on the other pages based on this guide: Verify the integration

If you don't see the Prerender headers / IDs, then the Integration is not working, which might be why the other URL is not cached.
