Support for my existing REST API #168

Closed haggen closed 6 years ago

haggen commented 6 years ago

Hey there,

I see that lumber generate requires a SQL database, but I also saw in the examples that you support MongoDB, so I was wondering; does Lumber support any REST API? For instance I have an API but I don't have an interface to manage the data. Would Lumber help me?

Thanks in advance.

Hey @haggen - Nope, Lumber is a tool to generate an Express.js application where we install forest-express-[orm] package on it to create a Rest API dedicated for your admin operations. This API will be 100% compatible with forestadmin.com - so you cannot use your application's API, which has a different purpose.
