@lumieducation/h5p-server

This library provides everything needed to create custom H5P servers running on NodeJS. It is written in TypeScript and fully typed, which makes it much easier to work with than the official PHP server. Of course, it's also possible to use this library in projects with JavaScript (ES5) and you will still profit from the typings by getting code completion in your IDE.

The library is not an out-of-the-box solution to get a standalone H5P application. It's still your job to integrate this library into your own NodeJS server. This is called an "implementation" or "plugin" in H5P terminology. The implementation is responsible for exposing HTTP endpoints, persisting data and calling maintenance functions. This library is not an out-of-the-box solution to get a standalone H5P server.

Check out the GitBook documentation for details on how to use this library.

Examples

There are two example implementations that illustrate how the packages can be used:

Versioning

We use SemVer for versioning. The versions of all packages of the monorepo are all increased at the same time, so you should always update all packages at once. For the versions available, see the tags on this repository.
