Create a full-featured REST/GraphQL API from a configuration file.

Hire me

Please reach out if you're looking for a Node.js API or CLI engineer (11 years of experience). Most recently I have been Netlify Build's and Netlify Plugins' technical lead for 2.5 years. I am available for full-time remote positions.

Development status

This project is still in active development, and is not ready for production. Key features are currently missing.

If you want to follow our progress in the meantime, you are welcome to star this repository.

Overview

Create a simple configuration file describing your data model:

engine: 0
collections:
  users:
    description: User of the API
    attributes:
      id:
        type: string
      age:
        type: integer
      score:
        type: number
        alias: high_score
        default: 10
        validate:
          minimum: 20
      reports:
        type: reports[]
  reports:
    attributes:
      id:
        type: string
      content:
        type: string
  default:
    database: mongodb
databases:
  mongodb:
    hostname: localhost
    password: secret_mongodb_password
    dbname: my_database_name
protocols:
  http:
    port: 5001

Then start a full-featured web API.

$ autoserver

Clients will now be able to perform GraphQL requests:

{
  find_users(
    filter: { score: { _gt: 100 } }
    order: "score"
  ) {
    id
    age
    score
    reports: { content }
  }
}

Or REST requests:

GET /rest/users/?filter.score._gt=100&order=score&populate=reports
{
  "data": [
    {
      "id": "15",
      "age": 32,
      "score": 150,
      "reports": { "id": "65", "content": "..." }
    },
    {
      "id": "251",
      "age": 24,
      "score": 168,
      "reports": { "id": "67", "content": "..." }
    },
    {
      "id": "7",
      "age": 51,
      "score": 192,
      "reports": { "id": "10", "content": "..." }
    }
  ]
}
