Reson

Bridging RElational databases to JSON based (REST) APIs.

Reson infers a REST API from any MySQL database schema. Basically a clone of PostgREST, but for MySQL.

Status of the project

The read API is done, the MySQL protocol JSON serializer works as of MySQL 5.6, but needs some love: for example DATETIME, DATE SQL types do work, but TIME doesn't. The reason is that - since Finagle MySQL connector is not yet updated to support MySQL 5.6 - I made it work with some workaround. But not entirely.

Contributors are welcome!

Read API

Please refer to the following bullet points to see what is implemented.

• ✓ Get / -> all the tables and fields
• ✓ Get /table_name -> select *
• ✓ "Range" header -> SQL LIMIT x, y
• ✓ select, order, in, like, comparators
• testing

Write API

• ✓ Unknown schema Json body -> SQL Insert
• ✓ Insert Query (single object)
• Insert Query (array of objects)
• Insert Query (CSV)
• ✓ Make it work with PATCH
• ✓ Deletion Query

Authentication

• JWT token validation w/secret
