For multiple json files nested requests returning 404

[riyazmulla51]

@typicode Please help me with the below problem. Thanks in adv.

//db1.json
[
{
"id": "Watson",
"userId": "Watson",
"basicDetails": {
"firstName": "Emma",
"lastName": "Watson"
},
"entitlementDetails": {
"defaultEntity": "E1",
"defaultEntityName": "United Kingdom",
"roles": [
{
"roleId": "A1",
"description": "Branch Manger"
}
],
"additionalEntities": [
{
"entityId": "E2",
"branchId": "102" }
]
}
}
]

//db2.json
[
{
"id": "001",
"partyID": "001",
"basicDetails": {
"branchCode": 99,
"addressDetails": [
{
"addressType": "3"
}
],
"contactDetails": [
{
"contactMethod": "SMS"
}
]
},
"personalDetails": {
"firstName": "ABC",
"lastName": "XYZ"
}
}
]

//to watch multiple json files i created a map.js file
//map.js

module.exports = function() {
return {
user1: require('./db1.json'),
user2: require('./db2.json')
}
}

//run json server using below command
json-server map.js

//the below one is working fine.
http://localhost:3000/user1/{userId} - Get details of the user identified by the passed user identifier

//not working
EXPECTED RESULT:
http://localhost:3000/user1/entities/{entityId} - Get details of the users belonging to a particular entity

http://localhost:3000/user1/branches/{branchId} - Get details of the users belonging to a particular branch

ACTUAL RESULT
The server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found)

Hi,
I was trying to accomplish the same thing today, I managed to create a solution by adding prefixes to the routes of each file

db.js

const mocks = ["route1", "route2"];

module.exports = () => {
	const exp = {};
	mocks.forEach(m => {
		const db = require('./' + m + '.json');
		Object.keys(db).forEach(d => {
			exp[m + "_" + d] = db[d];
		});
	});
	
	return exp;
};

routes.json

{
  "/route1/*": "/route1_$1",
  "/route2/*": "/route2_$1"
}

and then run json-server --watch ./db.js --routes ./routes.json
