Hosting the Parse Server on Arrow Cloud is easy. Use this sample app to get started.

1. Migrate your data to a MongoDB database. Parse makes this easy and painless, see here: https://parse.com/docs/server/guide#migrating

2. Clone or download this repo.

3. Install dependencies npm install

4. Open app.js and change the properties of ParseServer object (Mongo URL, appId, etc)

5. Run it locally via appc run and test it out (see below sample cURL requests for testing)

6. When you're all ready, publish it via appc cloud publish. Upon publish you'll get a URL to your app. The only thing left you have to do is change your clients to point to this new URL instead of the old Parse API (Note: you should get a CNAME for your API server).
