REST API

An alternative to the JS SDK to connect to your backend is through the REST API.

The slug of the entity is by default the plural dasherized name of the entity, but you can change it in the params

All entities start with the api/dynamic prefix. Ex: http://localhost:1111/api/dynamic/cats

tip

An OpenAPI documentation for the REST API is automatically generated on http://localhost:1111/api. Have a look!

GET /slug

Gets a list of items from an entity.

Filters

You can filter by property to refine the list of items. Use suffix to pass logic to it:

Suffix	Description	Example
_eq	equals	isActive_eq=true
_gt	greater than	birthdate_gt=2020-01-01
_gte	greater than or equal	age_gte=4
_lt	less than	amount_lt=400
_lte	less than or equal	amount_lte=400
_like	like	name_like=%bi%
_in	included in	customer_in=1,2,3

By default the results are ordered by id in a DESC order and thus shows the new ones first.

Relations

Load relations

You can specify the relations you want to load. Eager relationships are loaded by default.

// Loads cats and their owners.
GET http://localhost:1111/api/dynamic/cats?relations=owner

// Coma-separated relations.
GET http://localhost:1111/api/dynamic/invoices?relation=project,customer

// Nested relations.
GET http://localhost:111/api/dynamic/city?relations=region,region.country

Filter by relations

Once the relation is loaded, you can also filter by its properties using the same filters suffixes:

GET http://localhost:1111/api/dynamic/cats?relations=owner&owner.id_eq=1
GET http://localhost:1111/api/dynamic/cats?relations=owner&owner.name_eq=Jorge
