Getting-Started | Fastify

Details

Your first plugin:

• With Fastify everything is a plugin.
• This is one of the best features of Fastify, it will load your plugins in the same order you declare them, and it will load the next plugin only once the current one has been loaded. In this way, we can register the database connector in the first plugin and use it in the second
• Plugin loading starts when you call fastify.listen(), fastify.inject() or fastify.ready()
• The MongoDB plugin uses the decorate API to add custom objects to the Fastify instance, making them available for use everywhere.

Loading order of your plugins:

└── plugins (from the Fastify ecosystem)
└── your plugins (your custom plugins)
└── decorators
└── hooks
└── your services
	│
	└── service A
	│   └── plugins (from the Fastify ecosystem)
	│   └── your plugins (your custom plugins)
	│   └── decorators
	│   └── hooks
	│   └── your services
	│
	└── service B
		└── plugins (from the Fastify ecosystem)
		└── your plugins (your custom plugins)
		└── decorators
		└── hooks
