Show HN: Goms, self-hosted baas, short video

2 points

9 years ago

I have been working on a self hosted baas since the last 5 months. Recently recorded a short video to demo one of the core features

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-iTjlCcA4c&feature=youtu.be...

Skipping to 2:46 to skip the "deploy on heroku" part.

What is happening in the video:

- Setup a new instance

- Upload a sample store schema[1] written in JSON

- Create a new instance of an entity (a product here - bottles)

- Convey what "actions" are (they are different from just data editing)

Check it out here

ps: If you try goms on heroku, remember goms creates a sqlite db automatically if nothing else is specified. Heroku puts server to sleep after 30 mins of idleness, which wipes the sqlite database file.

The recommended storage is Mysql/Postgres
