Developer Tools: Code Finder, Swagger, Redis Dashboard and Shortcuts

Intro

0:00 The small tools that save hours : one search over all your code, documents of your APIs, the cache in plain sight, typed rows, and the keys of the panel. In this video, the developer tools of API Maker.

The usual way

0:15 Hours usually go to hunting where a column is used, across services and repositories, writing API documents by hand for each partner, and signing in to a server to read a cache. With API Maker, one search finds every piece of code, and edits it in place, Swagger documents come from the APIs themselves, and the panel shows the cache, the types and the keys. In this video : Code Finder, Swagger documents, the Redis Dashboard, Generated Interfaces, the keys of the panel, and the docs, in your language.

Code Finder

0:50 From the dashboard, Code Finder. coupon, Enter : four places, in every kind of code. Cart Quote, its pre hook, and the schemas of the coupons and of the orders. Cart Quote opens in an editor, every match lit. Free shipping from a hundred and twenty, Command S : saved, and live on every server. No grep, no clone.

Swagger documents

1:13 Swagger Docs, the page of the menu. The address of the documents of one API user, here Support Desk, and its APIs : the three its group opens, nothing more. Authorize, with a token of Support Desk. Then, the support tickets : Get all, Try it out, Execute. A real call to the server, and its real answer.

The Redis Dashboard

1:38 Redis Dashboard : the keys of the Redis of the cache, as a tree. Expand All. The kept answer of Sales By Status : its value, and the seconds it has left. Add New Key : calmhome colon banner, for three hundred seconds, a value in JSON, Save. In the tree, counting down. Delete, yes : gone.

Generated Interfaces

2:02 Generated Interfaces : db-interfaces types the rows of every table of the account, from its schemas. mysql, sales, orders. mongodb, catalog, products, with its arrays and objects inside. And types, every call of g. Download : for an app, a test, or an AI assistant.

The keys of the panel

2:23 Command K opens any page of the panel : redis, Enter. Back in API Testing, Custom APIs, Cart Quote, its code. The cursor in place, Command I opens Insert Code : the docs, and any block of code in them goes in at the cursor. Closed. The editor fills the page, and Escape brings it back. The keys in one place : Command K for the pages, Command S saves the code on screen, Command E runs it, Command I inserts code, Command B renames the tab of the browser, and in the Log Explorer, slash searches and R refreshes.

The docs, in your language

3:02 The docs give every example in the eight languages of API Maker : here, Get all, of g.sys.db. Pick Python once, and every example of the page follows. The next one, and the one after. Open Master save : Python is already picked. The choice follows you on every page, and into every tab of the docs that is open. Under Getting started, the cheat sheet : one page to keep next to your editor.

3:31 The address of every kind of API, and every operation, every header and its values, the query params, the schema, and the global object g, in the language you picked. Copy as Markdown hands the whole page to an AI assistant.

Good to know

3:46 Code Finder searches the secrets of the account too : who may open it may read them. Encrypt Strings, in video twenty eight. Auto Increments, in video four. Native Process Logs, in video thirty eight.

Built on standards

4:01 One search over every kind of code : a column renamed, no place missed. Documents made from the APIs themselves, for each API user. And rows typed from the schemas : an AI assistant writes against the real names of the columns.

Recap

4:18 To sum up. Code Finder, search and edit. Swagger documents, tried for real. The Redis Dashboard. Generated Interfaces. The keys of the panel. And the docs, in your language. Next : why API Maker is written in Rust. API Maker. Build faster, spend smarter, deliver better.
