# KoliBri Hydrate Server
The **KoliBri Hydrate Server** exposes the experimental [`@public-ui/hydrate`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@public-ui/hydrate) renderer via
high-performance REST and gRPC interfaces. Send a snippet of HTML containing KoliBri web components and receive fully hydrated markup that can be
embedded into any server-side workflow.
> β οΈ Hydration currently requires the `@public-ui/components` workspace package to be built. Run `pnpm --filter @public-ui/components build` before
> starting the server if the hydration adapter has not been generated yet.
## Features
- π Fast HTTP API powered by [Fastify](https://www.fastify.io/)
- π gRPC endpoint with a published `render.proto` contract
- π§± Shareable core that can be embedded into other Node.js applications
- π§ͺ Designed for integration testing thanks to injectable renderers
## Installation
```bash
pnpm add @public-ui/hydrate-server
```
The package ships with both an embeddable API and a CLI (`kolibri-hydrate-server`).
## CLI Usage
```bash
kolibri-hydrate-server [options]
```
### Options
| Option | Description | Default |
| ---------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------- | --------- |
| `--rest-port <number>` | Port for the REST API | `3000` |
| `--rest-host <host>` | Hostname for the REST API | `0.0.0.0` |
| `--route <path>` | REST endpoint path | `/render` |
| `--grpc-port <number>` | Port for the gRPC server | `50051` |
| `--grpc-host <host>` | Hostname for the gRPC server | `0.0.0.0` |
| `--host <host>` | Convenience flag to apply the same host to both servers | β |
| `--log-level <level>` | Fastify logger level (`info`, `warn`, β¦) | `info` |
| `--quiet` | Disable the Fastify logger | `false` |
| `--help` | Show CLI help | β |
| `--version` | Display version number | β |
Environment variables can also be used:
- `KOLIBRI_HYDRATE_REST_PORT`
- `KOLIBRI_HYDRATE_REST_HOST`
- `KOLIBRI_HYDRATE_GRPC_PORT`
- `KOLIBRI_HYDRATE_GRPC_HOST`
- `KOLIBRI_HYDRATE_ROUTE`
- `KOLIBRI_HYDRATE_LOG_LEVEL`
- `KOLIBRI_HYDRATE_QUIET`
### REST Example
```bash
curl -X POST \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{"html":"<kol-button _label=\"Server Rendered\"></kol-button>"}' \
http://localhost:3000/render
```
Response:
```json
{
"html": "<kol-button class=\"hydrated\" _label=\"Server Rendered\"></kol-button>",
"components": ["kol-button"],
"hydratedCount": 1,
"diagnostics": []
}
```
### gRPC Example
```bash
grpcurl -plaintext -d '{"html":"<kol-alert _heading=\"Hydrate\">Demo</kol-alert>"}' \
localhost:50051 publicui.hydrate.HydrateRenderer/RenderHtml
```
The `render.proto` definition is published via the package export `@public-ui/hydrate-server/proto/render.proto`.
## Embedding the Server
```ts
import { createHydrateServer } from '@public-ui/hydrate-server';
const server = await createHydrateServer({
restPort: 8080,
grpcPort: 50052,
});
await server.start();
console.log('REST:', server.getRestUrl());
console.log('gRPC:', server.getGrpcEndpoint());
```
Call `await server.stop()` to gracefully shut down both transports.
## Testing
The package exposes utility helpers to make integration testing straightforward:
```ts
import { createHydrateServer } from '@public-ui/hydrate-server';
const server = await createHydrateServer({
renderer: async (html) => ({
html: `<hydrated>${html}</hydrated>`,
components: ['kol-demo'],
hydratedCount: 1,
diagnostics: [],
}),
});
```
