ditto is what happens when you combine a key/value store and an HTTP API

• Send some JSON to a path via an HTTP PUT and the JSON will get stored on that path
• Send a GET request to any path you've PUT data on and it will be retrieved

ditto is useful for testing or prototyping an API that doesn't yet exist.

(using httpie, but you can send the request any way you like)

$ http PUT https://jkulton--fad998c882d711f092ca0224a6c84d84.web.val.run/books/1 \
  x-api-key:SUPER_SECRET \
  title="The Great Gatsby" \
  cover_image="https://www.gutenberg.org/cache/epub/64317/pg64317.cover.medium.jpg"
HTTP/1.1 200 OK

$ http GET https://jkulton--fad998c882d711f092ca0224a6c84d84.web.val.run/books/1 \
  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"
}

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