Easy online Backend Development and Database Management
Simplified JavaScript backend code without the plumbing
// ✅ ES6 support
import {app, Datastore} from 'codehooks-js'
// ✅ familiar Express routes, perfect for easy REST and GraphQL APIs
app.get('/route', handleGet)
app.post // etc
// ✅ built in fast NoSQL document database and Key-Value store - no config needed
app.post('/orders', async (req,res) => {
const conn = await Datastore.open();
// now you can use DOCUMENT operations:
// conn.insertOne, getOne, findOne, find, update, replace, remove etc.
// and KEY-VALUE operations:
// conn.set, get, getAll, incr, decr, del, delAll
})
// ✅ super easy Queue Workers for async processing
app.worker('sendEmail', sendEmailFunc)
conn.enqueue("sendEmail", { email: '[email protected]', ...etc })
// ✅ super easy CRON jobs
app.job('* * * * *', handleJobEveryMinute)
// ✅ Instant database CRUD REST API with validation - why code all the plumbing?
// Use crudlify with Yup validation or JSON schema
app.crudlify( {customer, product} );
// ✅ Check out the docs for more features like easy authentication etc...

What our users say
Codehooks is a great tool! In record time we have built a backend and API which collects live fish farm data from our sonars. The data is now easily accessible in a dashboard for our customers."
For one of our portfolio companies' clients , we needed a quick way to backup important orders. In a matter of minutes we set up a Codehooks project with a simple API to store a backup of the data.
I've been playing around with Codehooks for an internal project and I must say I'm impressed. It's a great tool for quickly setting up a backend API and database without any fuzz.

Spaces - the power of separate environments
Codehooks has a unique feature called Spaces. Spaces are totally self-contained environments with their own storage, database, code, settings and domains. It's well suited to use for having development, staging and production environments in the same project, but can also be used for different backend / API functionality in the same project.
