Show HN: Daptin: A server-based database hybrid web application framework

1 pointsby artparalmost 7 years ago
Hi HN,<p>Daptin is an open-source competitor to API first CMSs like airtable&#x2F;contentful.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;daptin&#x2F;daptin" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;daptin&#x2F;daptin</a><p>Daptin is a server side software and the name is inspired by the word &quot;adaptable&quot;. The goal is to allow developers&#x2F;designers easily create applications without any kind of lock-in at any level (pay per user&#x2F;pay per 10k rows etc...). Using daptin, you get a predictable normalized schema in your db (mysql&#x2F;postgres&#x2F;sqlite). A JSONAPI.org based stateless API over the database exposing CRUD with authentication and authorization in place. The same data is exposed as a GraphQL endpoint too.<p>Daptin can be deployed as the front-facing server exposing static-sites and daptin can handle multiple domains&#x2F;sub-domains or can be used as as internal service where you consume it as an API.<p>Why should you use daptin?<p><pre><code> - JSONAPI.org API, ready to use clients for all languages: http:&#x2F;&#x2F;jsonapi.org&#x2F;implementations&#x2F; - GraphQL - Authentication and row level authorization with user-group based permission over all APIs&#x2F;data - Querying&#x2F;filtering&#x2F;pagination, in-built data auditing (turn on&#x2F;off), in-built data versioning - Asset management, connect to any cloud storage service (rclone integrated natively in Daptin) - Stateless, horizontally scalable - Actions to model workflows, call external services - Easily re-creatable instances based on schemas: use json&#x2F;yaml to model your data&#x2F;relations&#x2F;actions and more - Expose static sites (js&#x2F;html&#x2F;css) - Connect with social-login - Work with external oauth2 connections - Reusable workflows - Templatable (JSON&#x2F;YAML file based schemas), Self-host marketplace to share your templates (example: https:&#x2F;&#x2F;docs.dapt.in&#x2F;extend&#x2F;marketplace&#x2F;) - Native binary for most OS. Binaries for linux&#x2F;darwin&#x2F;windows&#x2F;arm - Easy to use docker image (daptin&#x2F;daptin), deploy with kubernetes or docker compose or deploy on heroku </code></pre> Documentation at <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;docs.dapt.in&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;docs.dapt.in&#x2F;</a><p>Would love feedback
