@monkeyBanana2048 on Google Sheet Based DB API
SheetsDB: Turn google sheets into a functioning backend for your applications!
This project uses apps script in order to manipulate and store data on a google sheet that can be edited visually, or through POST requests. In order to use like a database, the user can send POST requests with the type of request (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE) in the body (bypass url limits) to the apps script deployment url.
The most challenging part of this project was designing the metadata tables and figuring out the best ways to organize data in the google sheet so it could be accessed more easily by the apps script.
The best part about this project was seeing it being able to handle many of the functions that industry databases have, such as renaming tables, queries with parameters such as (sort, where, etc), and handling schema.
Detailed instructions on how to use this project can be found in the readme file on the repository. A demo is also available on the website.
