To call a fake rest api service from our angular application , we can use a fake service using angular.Follow the below steps to create a fake server hosting a json database for angular service calls:

1. In the project path run the below command from cmd:
npm install json-server --save

2. Inside project folder create a folder "server" with a json file, database.json with below data
{
    "books": [
{id: 1, title: "Lockdown Dairies", author: "raje"},
{id: 2, title: "who do", author: "qao"}
]
}

3.Add the below lines in "scripts" tag of package.json of your project
"server": "json-server --watch ./server/database.json"

4.Run the below command to run the fake service
npm run server


The resource would be available at :
http://localhost:3000/books
