Soul is a Node.js CLI tool that instantly turns any SQLite database into a RESTful API server with a realtime WebSocket endpoint. It supports authentication, rate limiting, CORS, and an optional admin studio out of the box.
Use cases
- expose a sqlite database as a rest api
- build crud apis in minutes
- add realtime updates to a sqlite database
- quickly prototype a backend without writing code
- self-host a lightweight api server for sqlite
- add authentication to a sqlite rest api
When to choose
- you need a REST/realtime API over SQLite with zero boilerplate
- you want quick prototyping or a small self-hosted backend
- you want built-in auth, rate limiting, and CORS for a SQLite API
When to avoid
- you use PostgreSQL, MySQL, or another database instead of SQLite
- you need complex custom business logic in your API layer
- you need high-concurrency write throughput beyond SQLite's capabilities
