apifaketory dropped support for getting users list

[igavrysh]

http://apifaketory.com/api/user?limit=10 is no longer available.

I am using http://private-anon-ce456ed119-apifaketory.apiary-mock.com/api/user?limit=1
as an interim solution. However, it returns only 1 user regardless of limit param

same issue, only mock server provides service which returns only one obj regardless of limit, while the other two servers all returned 502

Also having the same issue. Course needs updating to something different or SpringGuru.com should considering providing the api to reduce this type of risk.

This Problem still persists and had to use mock server(which returns only 1 user data).

It seems you have to write an example API on your own now. Regarding the comment in https://stackoverflow.com/a/31527616/7773582: Apiary has no concept of the array inside the response. You have to prepare the filtered arrays yourself as different responses, one response with limit parameter and corresponding JSON-array has to be set up for EVERY number which seems very strange to me?!

Problem solved! Use https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/users as an alternative API.

//Note that the jasonplaceholder returns a List of User and not a UserData as expected from apifaketory.
//Note that limit is now with underscore, _limit

@OverRide
public List getUsers(Integer limit) {

 List<User> userData = restTemplate.getForObject("https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/users?_limit=" + limit, List.class);

 return userData;

}

As you can see, the jsonplaceholder does not return the same payload as apifaketory:

[
{
"id": 1,
"name": "Leanne Graham",
"username": "Bret",
"email": "[email protected]",
"address": {
"street": "Kulas Light",
"suite": "Apt. 556",
"city": "Gwenborough",
"zipcode": "92998-3874",
"geo": {
"lat": "-37.3159",
"lng": "81.1496"
}
},
"phone": "1-770-736-8031 x56442",
"website": "hildegard.org",
"company": {
"name": "Romaguera-Crona",
"catchPhrase": "Multi-layered client-server neural-net",
"bs": "harness real-time e-markets"
}
},
...
]

So you have to refactor the domain model to Address, Company, Geo, etc.,

Good luck!!!

you can fake an api on your desktop by following the link below:

If you are following springguru.com you can put the data from apifaketory in db.json file that will be created if you follow the above link
