Ditto

Ditto is an HTTP API as a key/value store, useful for testing or prototyping an API that doesn't yet exist.

  • Send a PUT to store some JSON on a path
  • Send a GET to retrieve JSON on a path

Data is stored using std/blob

Example

Store some data on a path:

PUT https://jkulton--fad998c882d711f092ca0224a6c84d84.web.val.run/books/1 Content-Type: application/json x-api-key: SUPER_SECRET { "cover_image": "https://www.gutenberg.org/cache/epub/64317/pg64317.cover.medium.jpg", "title": "The Great Gatsby" }

Retrieve data stored on a path:

GET https://jkulton--fad998c882d711f092ca0224a6c84d84.web.val.run/books/1 Content-Type: application/json x-api-key: SUPER_SECRET HTTP/1.1 200 OK { "cover_image": "https://www.gutenberg.org/cache/epub/64317/pg64317.cover.medium.jpg", "title": "The Great Gatsby" }

Setup

  1. Remix this Val
  2. Create/update the DITTO_API_KEY env var to something secure
  3. Ensure you pass DITTO_API_KEY as a x-api-key header with all your requests
  4. Send PUT requests to store data, send GET requests to retrieve data
  5. Have fun!
