Be sure to check out webdis ( https://github.com/nicolasff/webdis ) for a similar service you can run on your servers. It's all in C so it's superlighweight.

#12To make it clear: - jsonstore.io is intended for small projects, mostly for the open-source community. It's not a datastore you can use to store all the logs of your company, and we do have quota limits. - We do nothing with your data, it's secured and if you want to store sensitive data you may want to encrypt it. - The idea of this project is to provide the open source community a easy solution for storing casual u…
Just want to drop a big thumbs up for making the project open source unlike mine. It will really help developers who are looking for an API and want to host it themselves. I'll try to contribute to your project in the best possible way I can. Cheers.

#13Earlier quoted context omitted.
JSONbin.io developer here. Tracked the thread using GA after unusual spike in the traffic. Good point. We cannot trust any random service. It takes some amount of investment, dev time & server costs to keep the service up and running. The reason I developed this service is to ease the storage process for the developers developing mobile or small scale apps, so that they can focus on the app rather than spending time…
What's your take on developers not putting the effort forth to use their own object store (ie S3) for this? I'm not against developer velocity (disclaimer: not a dev), but this seems to be a cycle where hosted tool comes out, people rely on it, tool becomes too expensive to run, neglected, etc, and then tool goes dark one day. Would time be better spent on client libraries that ease the difficulties of using existing…
It's not just about efforts but it's more like the developer needs to maintain another piece of a service. I agree that uploading a simple Json file doesn't sound too complez to maintain but at a cost of you paying for S3 service with limited amount of features.

#14Love the implementation! Would be great to eventually see pagination and parameter/ID filtering (/users?age=32, etc)

Services like these are really geared towards the hacker mentality of getting prototype built as quick and dirty as possible. As the parent wrote--to focus on the app.
Using a durable source like S3 sounds good, but now you have the additional requirement of having an AWS Account. Granted the barrier to getting an AWS account is minor, but it is still is a barrier.

#16The curl DELETE example is wrong (it's identical to the GET example).

Thanks, appreciate it. :)

#19JavaScript developers interested in this should also take a look at https://encapsule.io/docs/ARCcore/filter that makes it simple to implement bulletproof JSON validation and normalization. Advanced application of this library additionally allows for runtime type-based metaprogramming in JavaScript (i.e. build generic algorithms that are specialized to handle specific app-defined data types at runtime).

#20So there's no actual security on this? That is, given the knowledge of an endpoint, anyone can issue requests against it?
How do you plan on responding to requests regarding GDPR requirements from EU residents? What happens when someone starts uploading content that could be covered under the DMCA? Following the links, should we assume that https://www.forter.com is the responsible company?
