## Install

Requires Node 10+ because of ParcelJS bundler

```shell
npm i -D @bahmutov/parcel-json-server
```

## Use

- create a JSON file to server as a database / REST api, see [json-server][json-server] documentation. For example see [test/data.json](test/data.json)
- have an HTML with JavaScript, CSS, etc. for [Parcel][parcel] bundler to process and serve, for example see [test/app/index.html](test/app/index.html)
- run `parcel-json-server --entrypoint --database ` and get the app running at `localhost:` with REST endpoints at `localhost:/`

### Options

```text
$ node ./src/cli.js --help
Usage: cli.js [options] [command]

Commands:
help Display help
version Display version

Options:
-d, --database database JSON filename
-e, --entrypoint HTML filename to serve
-h, --help Output usage information
-p, --port Port to run on (defaults to 3000)
-v, --version Output the version number
```

### Example

In this repo the example `npm start` script runs

```
$ @bahmutov/parcel-json-server \
--port 3000 \
--entrypoint test/app/index.html \
--database test/data.json
```

Then I can open `localhost:3000` and see the application, and make calls to `localhost:3000/todos` (full REST endpoint)

To reset data, use `POST /reset` request, pass new data to overwrite ALL old data.
For example, from a Cypress test [cypress/integration/spec.js](cypress/integration/spec.js) you can do the following

```js
const todos = require('../../test/data.json').todos

it('responds from REST API', () => {
cy.request('POST', '/reset', { todos })
cy.request('/todos')
.its('body')
.should('deep.equal', todos)
})
```

### Debugging

If you want to see debug messages, run with environment variable

```
DEBUG=@bahmutov/parcel-json-server
```
