apiConfig.json
for flexibility. - Dynamic OpenGraph Configuration: Effortlessly set and manage OpenGraph metadata.
- Proxy API Support: Create proxy endpoints with caching, query mapping, and response enrichment.
- GraphQL Integration: Supports dynamic GraphQL schema generation based on API configuration.
- Middleware System: Includes built-in middleware for authentication, rate limiting, and logging.
- Caching Support: Redis-based caching for improved API performance.
- Rate Limiting: Control traffic with built-in rate-limiting middleware.
- Dynamic Table Initialization: Initialize database tables based on configuration.
Machine Learning Analytics: Built-in ML middleware for analytics and scheduled training.
Upcoming Features
Real-time WebSocket support.
- Enhanced API monitoring and logging.
- Multi-tenancy capabilities for shared API configurations.
- Plugin architecture for custom extensions.
- Comprehensive CLI for scaffolding and management.
- Advanced OpenGraph templating for richer metadata management.
4. Why FlexAPI Server?
- Flexible and configurable API server for dynamic use cases.
- Built-in support for SEO-friendly OpenGraph metadata.
- Robust middleware and caching solutions for performance and scalability.
- Open-source and community-driven.
5. Getting Started
Installation
npm install flexapi-server
Basic Usage
Example setup:
const FlexAPIServer = require('flexapi-server'); const app = new FlexAPIServer({ port: 3000, configPath: './config/apiConfig.json', }); app.start(() => { console.log('FlexAPI Server is running on port 3000'); });
6. Configuration
API Configuration
- Define your API endpoints in
apiConfig.json
:[ { "route": "/api/example", "method": "GET", "type": "proxy", "targetUrl": "https://example.com", "queryMapping": { "localParam": "externalParam" }, "responseMapping": { "externalField": "localField" }, "cache": { "enabled": true, "ttl": 3600 } } ]
OpenGraph Metadata
- Example configuration for dynamic OpenGraph metadata:
{ "route": "/api/metadata", "method": "GET", "type": "metadata", "title": "Dynamic Title", "description": "Automatically configured OpenGraph description", "url": "https://yourdomain.com" }
7. Advanced Features
- Dynamic Table Initialization: Automatically create database tables using
apiConfig.json
. - Proxy Enrichment: Combine external API responses with internal data.
- GraphQL API: Automatically generate and expose GraphQL endpoints.
