ts-standard-api-proxy-template

AWS Lambda function template with TypeScript for creating a API proxy with multiple endpoints that support both Get and Post methods. It creates an API proxy for the endpoints from JSONPlaceholder.

This API creates 6 different endpoints

Endpoint	Method	Output
/get-users	GET	Get all users
/get-user/{id}	GET	Get a single user by id
/add-user	POST	Add a user
/get-posts	GET	Get all posts
/get-post/{id}	GET	Get a single post by id
/add-post	POST	Add a post
