API Pagination Tester: Public Worked Example

Walk a cursor-paginated API modelled as an in-memory mock and prove what a client would end up holding.

This walkthrough uses the tool's public README and checked-in example files. Run the command from a repository checkout with Node.js 22+.

Run the checked-in example

node bin/api-pagination-tester.mjs --input examples/orders-clean.json
node bin/api-pagination-tester.mjs --input scenario.json --json > report.json

Read the result

Node 22 or newer. No runtime dependencies and no development dependencies — Node built-ins only.

Scope

For live API design under concurrent writes, see Edilec's cursor pagination engineering guide. This CLI only checks a supplied in-memory scenario; it cannot verify that a service keeps the same ordering or cursor behavior in production.
