Daptin

Daptin is a server exposing HTTP APIs for web and application developers providing to talk to database and persistent storage.

• Consistent API with authentication and authorization for database table and metadata

• User management and user group management API with row and table level ownership

• Stateless and easily scalable

• Dadadash : https://github.com/daptin/dadadash/

  • docker run -p 8080:8080 daptin/dadadash

The most powerful ready to use data and services API server.

• Define data tables and relations from config files or API calls
  • Middleware for handling data normalizations and conformations
  • Create indexes, constraints on columns
  • Column can be have images/video/audio/blobs attachments, stored appropriately in #cloudstore
• Authentication and Authorization on APIs, define auth using APIs
  • Add users and user groups
  • RWX based permission system for rows and tables
  • JWT token with configurable expiry time
  • User sign in/sign up/password reset flows
• JSON API and GraphQL API
  • JSONAPI.org complaint endpoints
  • GraphQL endpoint with Data/Query and Mutations available
  • Pagination and filtering using page number or cursor based
  • Fetch relationships in a single call
• Cloud storage, create storage using API
  • Connect to over 30 storage providers (localhost/HTTP/FTP/GDrive/Dropbox/S3 and many more)
  • Manage files using daptin actions
  • Automated 1 hour sync scheduled
• Static and HUGO sites
  • Host site on multiple domains
  • Inbuilt HTTPS certificate generation with lets-encrypt
  • Web file browser and FTP access (disabled by default)
• Action workflows & 3rd party API integration, create new integration using API calls
  • Supports v2/v3 openapi in yaml or json format
  • Call any 3rd party API by importing OpenAPI Spec
• Email server
  • Enable SMTPS and IMAPS services and use daptin as your daily email provider
  • Multi hostname mail server
  • Multiple email accounts, database backed email storage

Overview

• Database backed persistence, 3NF normalized tables
• JSON API/GraphQL for CRUD apis
• User and group management and access control
• Social login with OAuth: tested with google, github, linkedin
• Actions for abstracting out business flows
• Extensive state tracking APIs
• Enable Data Auditing from a single toggle
• Synchronous Data Exchange with 3rd party APIs
• Multilingual tables support, supports Accept-Language header
• Market place API to manage and share schemas
• Cloud storage sync like gdrive, dropbox, b2, s3 and more
• Asset column to hold file and blob data, backed by storage
• Multiple websites under separate sub-domain/sub-paths
• Connect with external APIs by using extension points
• Data View Streams
• Flexible data import (auto create new tables and automated schema generation)
  • XLSX
  • JSON
  • CSV

Road Map

• Normalised Db Design from JSON schema upload
• Json Api, with CRUD and Relationships
• OAuth Authentication, inbuilt jwt token generator (setups up secret itself)
• Authorization based on a slightly modified linux FS permission model
• Objects and action chains
• State tracking using state machine
• Data connectors -> Incoming/Outgoing data
• Plugin system -> Grow the system according to your needs
• Native support for different data types (geo location/time/colors/measurements)
• Configurable intelligent Validation for data in the APIs
• Pages/Sub-sites -> Create a sub-site for a target audience
• Define events all around the system
• Data conversion/exchange/transformations
• Live editor for subsites - grapesjs
• Store connectors for storing big files/subsites - rclone
• Market place to allow plugins/extensions to be installed
• Online entity designer
• Excel to entity identification
• CSV to entity identification
