Or as someone in 2025 said..."it's better to be competent".

Useful with the new Grafana RSS widget, which often breaks due to CORS restrictions, nice.

Also emmer (which is perhaps too niche to get mentioned in an article like this), which I focuses more on being a quick/flexible 'data scratchpad', rather than just scale.

Hi all. As you may or may not know, Emmer is a self-hosted API for CRUD-ing JSON data on different filesystems (local, S3, azure blob, ...). Written in GO.

I recently added the S3 connector. Meaning, through a generic API you can CRUD json files in S3. Happy coding!

Created a self-hosted API for CRUD-ing JSON data using GO. Helps me with quick/flexible data storage tasks that can easily interface with different programs.

The API is based on the JSON structure. So the example below is for CRUD-ing [key1][key2] in file.json. The value (which can be anything) is then added to the body of the request. Moreover, there are helper functions for appending and incrementing values.

  DELETE/PUT/GET: localhost:8080/api/file/key1/key2/...

thank you!

Yes! And you can use "append" mode for use cases like these also. Then the value will be added as a list object. So:

  {users: [{"username": "tom"}, {"username": "tim"}]}

thanks! That's the exact reason I made this. Just install and go. Most database software is built for a level of scale my personal projects never reach anyways, but I do get stuck with the complexity and configuration.
