Building Scalable APIs with Onebase

Creating scalable APIs is essential for modern applications. Onebase provides the tools and infrastructure you need to build APIs that can handle millions of requests.

API Design Principles

When designing APIs with Onebase, follow these key principles:

RESTful Design: Use standard HTTP methods and status codes

Consistent Naming: Follow consistent naming conventions

Proper Error Handling: Implement comprehensive error responses

Rate Limiting: Protect your APIs from abuse

Implementation Example

Here's how to create a simple API endpoint:

import { OnebaseAPI } from '@onebase/api';

const api = new OnebaseAPI();

api.get('/users', async (req, res) => {
  const users = await User.findAll();
  res.json(users);
});

api.post('/users', async (req, res) => {
  const user = await User.create(req.body);
  res.status(201).json(user);
});

This approach ensures your APIs are both scalable and maintainable.
