An AJAX wrapper for the Parse.com REST API

What is it?

It's a super light-weight AJAX wrapper for Parse.com's wonderful database service.

Why did you build it?

I wanted a stupid-easy data store that I could use strictly from the client. No server needed! Write a thick front end application or app prototype.

New!

Serve your app from http, cross domain calls FTW! Parse launched support for cross-origin resource sharing using CORS. This means you no longer have to generate a base64 encoded Basic Auth key using the provided parse.sh You can now just pass your application id and rest key right to $.parse.init and

$.parse.init({
	app_id : undefined, // <-- enter your Application Id here 
	rest_key : undefined // <--enter your REST API Key here	
});

Prototyping love.

• No Schema! Just fire a $.parse.post & forget it. If the collection hasn't been created already it will be instantiated.

• Super simple... just $.parse.get/post/put/delete

More to come....

• Backbone / Spine sync extension
