Upcoming New Pricing

Max, I implemented a workaround to the API limit by setting up an external managed mongo database. It's free now, then $15/month, but I like the peace of mind and not thinking that i might be charged $2000 one day - e.g. sudden surge in usage for a partially free app for example. So the fair price i...

I am also worried about grandfathered plans being automatically denied the grandfathered status upon credit card rejection when billing renews. Credit cards gets denied all the time and this an arbitrarily unfair way to phase people out of the old plan without giving any chance to rectify the billin...

Upcoming New Pricing

Absolutely agree especially considered that actual cost to Appery per API call is a tiny tiny fraction of what is planned to be charged. If the goal is to charge based on app value, API calls are not a good metric. Indeed my only profitable app is an app that works 100% offline and needs zero storag...

Upcoming New Pricing

In my case I am using a Java program that runs on my machine to send curl POST/PUT requests to the database - this is driving most of the usage to upload/update this database. I would really appreciate if such usage was excluded towards the limit (or maintained at the current limit)

Upcoming New Pricing

Hi Max, I agree that API calls may reflect app usage and thus value. However, I have recently had a large number of API calls (nearly 500,000) to load a large number of rows into the database. The app is still in development and has no usage. Is there any way that such usages can be excluded from th...

I would also like to add the the Amazon prices for API calls are also extremely low, making this new pricing structure very uncompetitive. Please tell me if I am reading this the wrong way. This is from Amazon https://aws.amazon.com/api-gateway/pr... API Calls $3.50 per million API calls received, p...

Upcoming New Pricing

Hi Max, I am also very concerned about the new limit for the API calls. I am in one of the grandfathered plans and certainly I won't be able to afford to keep one of my apps alive with the new pricing structure. At the current $0.0020/API call for overage, that's $2000 for 1M calls, which today are ...

MongoDB $text and $search

Hi Sergiy, According to the mondodb manual, a "text index" is needed to use the $text $search fuction*. This is how a text index implemented: https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/core/... Since Appery uses mongoDB, it is possible to set a text index?, e.g.: db.reviews.createIndex( { comments: &...

MongoDB $text and $search

Does Appery allow to programmatically add a "text" index to a mongodb database? I think that with that I might be able to implement a custom javascript service to run such query.

Hi Sergiy, I have entered the following javascript code in data-mapping-before send-where: {$text: { $search: "cake" } } My goal is to sort the results by relevance using the command below: score: { $meta: "textScore" } I understand that mongodb requires to index columns of the t...
