@qixian Kibana's changed a lot since 6.4 and the latest version doesn't expose the underlying Hapi server on purpose. In the new platform, all the underlying hapi server methods are now exposed through `CoreSetup`. To help folks navigate the new way of doing things, we've written a guide and tried to give as many [examples](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/migrating-legacy-plugins-examples.html#http-routes-migration) as possible. There's even one for migrating [hapi pre-handlers](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/migrating-legacy-plugins-examples.html#_migrating_hapi_pre_handlers)!

There's a lot more in those docs that we hope will help. Good luck!

No, you have to use core services.
