FYI: Bandersnatch, in a very hacky way, saves the latest JSON metadata it got to a file within the web tree and if you set NGINX (or what ever web server / proxy) to set the response type to 'application/json' you have a cut down version of the JSON API (this is - it only has the latest JSON metadata and not per version).
