Allow the use of nested resource key about json-server HOT 5 CLOSED

Hi Ingro, always happy to know my projects are appreciated, thanks :)

Not really sure to undersdand your example, because I don't see user in your code. What does generate.js outputs and how do you get /user?

from json-server.

Oh I think I'm getting it. When you get /user, the response is the structure you've shown:

{
  "data": [
    {
      "id": 1,
      "name": "John"
    },
// ...

And because user list is in data, you can't get /user/1.

from json-server.

Yeah sorry it wasn't clear on the first thought, that was the response I expect from the server. I need the meta data to manage the pagination on the client application, but as you guessed I can't get a specific user structuring the data in this way.

Completely out of scope but, great avatar choice! :)

Thanks, good choice for Radiohead :)

Unfortunately, I don't see a way to use that kind of structure with this project. It would mean creating some all new routes.
And POST, DELETE would need to update the meta properties too.

The current approach in JSON Server for pagination, is to use _start, _end query parameters and the X-TOTAL-COUNT header.

Sorry about that.

Maybe you can have a look at dyson or interfake.

Also, I think it wouldn't take too long to create a custom fake server using Express. Actually, if you look at src/router.js you'll see that the code is quite simple.

Hope it will help.
