A few months ago, I built a tool to generate fake data based on a JSON payload(fakeapi). FakeAPI worked fine, but a major downside was that a JSON payload must be sent as a post request to receive data. This is not good for someone emulating any other HTTP methods.

So I decided to build Phoney. Phoney is a mock API generator that lets you create apps to manage endpoints. Other features of phoney include,

• Create apps to manage your endpoints
• Create endpoints that return data in a custom format
• Default API key authentication support
• All methods, GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE, supported.
• Dynamic endpoints supported
• Swagger UI for each endpoint. It makes testing easy.
• Built-in JSON editor for creating endpoint schema
• Supported response codes, 200, 201, and 202
• Syntax highlighting for JSON schema
• Light/Dark theme switch

This is my first ever Django app

Phoney is built with Django. Also, this is my first ever Django app

I built an API to generate fake data, which comes in handy when testing/prototyping the frontend. Data is generated based on a json payload.
