NeDB VS RecipeUI

Yes! I plan to maintain it long-term! I will be rolling out some feature improvements and updates these few weeks.

I still think Kong did a good job in crafting the product. I started using Insomnia in my previous company 3 years ago and our team loved it.

What happened recently felt a little bit like the Unity fiasco (of course, in a much smaller scale). Though as a user I would say Kong had taken a bad turn, I'm still grateful to them for open-sourcing such a fantastic product.

One of the reasons I forked it was because I've read the code and I think it's quite nicely written overall (but unfortunately things like nedb that was used is no longer maintained https://github.com/louischatriot/nedb so it's probably wise to swap out at some point)

Sounds like node is trying to fsync to an unsupported file system. Top hit on goolge does not look promising: https://github.com/louischatriot/nedb/issues/407

You can pick one from this NeDB's issue that fits your needs, or keep using NeDB if it is still working for you, no longer maintained != not working.

At least for my needs, NeDB[0] is the best of both worlds for prototyping and early-stage production releases. It's human-readable, on-disk, greppable, still supports indexing and a subset of Mongo features while remaining serverless and in-memory.

Local: Local specific logic. For example, code to write to a Nedb table.

What I'd do to get the best understanding of how NeDB works is to dive into the docs here. The primary things to keep in mind are that there can be other non-JSON data in those files, and that all of the document data is appended and periodically compacted, which means you'll often have an arbitrary number of duplicates and versions within the same file.

I've used https://github.com/louischatriot/nedb before but it may not meet your needs.

NeDB compatible with MongoDB

Also, there is a javascript solution called nedb: https://github.com/louischatriot/nedb, which does largely the same thing

There is similar project in Javascript called NeDB

When I went looking for alternatives to Insomnia I was pleasantly surprised to see that RecipeUI[1] will let paste in curl commands with various flags etc. and parse those to generate new entries, pretty slick.

Given the recent update[0] pushed by the Insomnia team I am now looking for alternatives.

For now the best alternative I've found is Bruno[1]. But sadly it does not support gRPC.

Does anyone have a better solution?

These are some options I've looked into:

- https://hoppscotch.io/

- https://hurl.dev/

- https://recipeui.com/

- https://kreya.app/

- https://github.com/flawiddsouza/Restfox

I recently found this open source postman typed alternative, hadn't had time to really try it yet but the types stuff should help here no?
