In this tutorial you will learn how to setup your own Parse Server solution hosted on Heroku and connect it with your iOS app.
Thanks Ron for your great tutorial! Iāve been waiting for such a tutorial about Parse Server for so long!
Awesome! Thanks for posting 
I love parse-server It helps me a lot
Next, in a new Terminal window, run the following command. Remember to insert your Application ID from the Parse.com dashboard:
Fine, but Parse.com website is not working. Where can I take my application ID ?
Hey,
I have the same issue. Did you figure it out?
nope ): article should be updated
Hi,
Thank you for your comments, I will double check this issue and update the tutorial accordingly
Hello,
Is it possible to avoid putting $0.applicationId in the app (Appdelegate.swift class ) ?
In javascript, Itās really easy, you have just to fill in the date in āconfig varā
(I would like to improve the security of the app.)
Tanks,
Jamal.
@Jamal You could store and get the values from the keychain. You donāt need to put this code in the app delegate, but you will want to authenticate before you attempt to access data.
The code was missing a file for the table view and crashing as a result. Also, the table view itself and the scrollview seem to be doing pretty much the same thing. So, I just removed the scrollview in place of the table view. I also moved all of the network code to its own object and did some refactoring. Feel free to clone it here. You will need your own API keys.
As an aside, I found the tutorial a bit confusing as it doesnāt clearly separate local install and remote and why choose one over the other or when to use both. My suggestion is to do the simplest install first, which is just deploying to Heroku, and then add other refinements in clearly separated sections and explain why you would need to, say, create a local install, etc. This would make it a lot easier to follow IMO.
When I first time run ānpm run startā, Iām able to see some content in the localhost:1337. After replacing the mongodb and myappid, Iām getting curl: (7) Failed to connect to localhost port 1337. What could be the issue?
