Database.json

Create a database.json with an initial structure: { "posts": [] } Use code with caution. Copied to clipboard

: Always include a unique id for each post so you can find or delete it later. database.json

If you aren't using a server and just want to append data to the file locally using Node.js: javascript Create a database

To write a new entry (a "post") to a database.json file, you can either use a tool like for a quick mock API or write a script in a language like JavaScript (Node.js) or Python to handle the file operations directly. 1. Using json-server (Quickest for Web Devs) Using Node

fetch('http://localhost:3000/posts', { method: 'POST', headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json', }, body: JSON.stringify({ title: "My First Post", content: "This is some data saved to database.json!" }), }) .then(response => response.json()) .then(data => console.log('Success:', data)); Use code with caution.

import json new_post = {"id": 1, "title": "Hello from Python", "content": "Writing to JSON is easy!"} # Load existing data with open('database.json', 'r+') as file: db = json.load(file) db['posts'].append(new_post) # Seek to start and overwrite file.seek(0) json.dump(db, file, indent=2) Use code with caution.
