    I built JsonBlob[1], to help mock out JSON APIs so that building backends could be decoupled from front end development. I'd been needing this tool forever and then finally spent a…

    why not allow 36 hours per day of 'heroku run' or 'heroku web'?

    If you're working with URI Templates in Java (or any other JVM language that can use Java libraries), I'd highly recommend https://github.com/damnhandy/Handy-URI-Templates

    What do you use in Jenkins to build your Docker images? Are they just Maven projects?

    Maybe it's just missing the carries (like Horizon) that are operated by Alaska?

    Give JSON Blob ( https://github.com/tburch/jsonblob ) a try! It's open sourced and you can run it locally if you want.

    Yeah, it uses that for the editor, but also has a full HTTP API ( http://jsonblob.com/api ) behind it for storing the JSON and accessing it from outside the browser.

    I built http://jsonblob.com for this purpose. It has an HTTP API as well as we nice GUI interface to edit your JSON. It's open sourced and really just a thin webapp on top of mongo…

    I'm not sure what you're doing, but using GeoHashes on GAE worked pretty well for me. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geohash

    I put ads on http://jsonblob.com about a month ago and didn't really expect much, but have been pleasantly surprised! I should have put them on it when I launched it a little over …

    It was something that I built a while back, mostly over a weekend, but haven't really touched since. It's running on a free Heroku dyno and coming close to the 512M limit (grails i…

    This is a great way of putting a UI on top of JSON! I created http://jsonblob.com/ to accomplish the same thing, but a spreadsheet is much more familiar than a JSON editor.

    Comment #5144205

    It's the other way around. I built JSON Blob on top of JSON Editor Online so that I could have an API ( http://jsonblob.com/api ) to interact with the JSON.

    Have you seen Swagger? https://github.com/wordnik/swagger-core/ I'm going to try to get this working for JSON Blob API's documentation over the weekend.

    Thanks! I definitely didn't do a good job at that based on the feedback I've received. I'll try to make it more prominent because that was the sole purpose of the project.

    It's open sourced - https://github.com/tburch/jsonblob . It's running on a single Heroku dyno with the free MongoHq service, so at some point I'll have to figure out what to do whe…
