API Call Overrides

👉 UI Pages will automatically call respected APIs generated by API Maker.
👉 If we want to override that behaviour we can use this feature.
👉 It will call only POST method APIs.
👉 You can run custom code before & after API call using these hooks "codeBeforeAPICall" & "codeAfterAPICall". One of their use case is to modify request payload before API call and change response after response received.

Examples

let dbMasterConfig: T.IDBMasterConfig = {
    operations: {
        add: {
            apiCallOverrides: {
                url: `http://:beHostPort/api/custom-api/:userPath/custom-save-api`,
            },
        },
        importData: {
            apiCallOverrides: {
                url: `http://:beHostPort/api/custom-api/:userPath/custom-import-data-api`,
            }
        }
    },
    form: {
        fields: [
            [{
                label: 'Custom API Dropdown',
                control: T.EDBMasterFormControl.dropdown,
                path: 'custom_api_in_dropdown',

                    pkField: '_id', // 👈 Primary key of current table
                }
            },
            edit: {
                enable: true,
                apiCallOverrides: {
                    url: `http://:beHostPort/api/custom-api/:userPath/custom-edit-by-id`,
                },

                    pkField: '_id', // 👈 Primary key of current table
                }
            },
        }
