Flamingo GraphQL

This module allows the usage of GraphQL services in your Flamingo project.

Example

The module contains a working example that you can try out yourself. See https://github.com/i-love-flamingo/graphql/tree/master/example

Use Graphql in your Flaming project

Create a new Module and bind a graphql.Service.

The service has both the Schema and Model-Mapping information.

It also makes sense to declare graphql.Module as a direct dependency from your model:

package todo

import (
	"flamingo.me/dingo"
	"flamingo.me/graphql"
	"flamingo.me/graphql/example/todo/domain"
	"flamingo.me/graphql/example/user"
	"github.com/99designs/gqlgen/codegen/config"
)

// Service for the todo graphql service
type service struct{}

// Schema getter for graphql
func (*service) Schema() []byte {
	// language=graphql
	return []byte(`
type Todo {
	id: ID!
	task: String!
	done: Boolean!
}
extend type User {
	todos: [Todo]
}
extend type Mutation {
	TodoAdd(user: ID!, task: String!): Todo
	TodoDone(todo: ID!, done: Boolean!): Todo
}
`)
}

// Types mapping between graphql and go
func (*service) Types(types *graphql.Types) {
	types.Map("Todo", domain.Todo{})
	config.Resolve("User", "todos", UserResolver{}, "Todos")
	config.Resolve("Mutation", "TodoAdd", MutationResolver{}, "TodoAdd")
	config.Resolve("Mutation", "TodoDone", MutationResolver{}, "TodoDone")
}

// Module struct for the todo module
type Module struct{}

// Configure registers the service graphql service
func (Module) Configure(injector *dingo.Injector) {
	injector.BindMulti(new(graphql.Service)).To(new(service))
}

// Depends marks dependency to the graphql Module
func (*Module) Depends() []dingo.Module {
	return []dingo.Module{
		new(graphql.Module),
	}
}

Setup Graphql in your Flamingo project

Add the graphql.Module to your projects modules.

Generate the local code by running go run main.go graphql. Better is to add the following lines to your project main file:

//go:generate rm -f graphql/generated.go
//go:generate go run -tags graphql main.go graphql

Then you can run go generate . instead of go run main.go graphql

After this the project specific graphql code is generated inside the folder graphql

You then also need to add the generated local Module to your main project file:

import (
    projectGraphql "yourpoject-namespace/graphql"
)

....
   new(projectGraphql.Module),
....

Now when you start your application you are able to use the graphql API and the graphql console. See the example folder for a complete example on how to use flamingo.me/graphql.

The next thing you need to do is to add Resolver to the file resolver.go:

Resolver and Modifier

Everything needs to be resolved, unless gqlgen can figure something out on its own.

Best practice here is to provide default resolvers in your code, which can be used via embedding. See example/user for an example UserQuery resolver.

Suggested Naming Conventions

We recommend to namespace your Types and Type extensions with the Project name. For Flamingo Core Framework GraphQL Schema we use the prefix Core_ and for Flamingo Commerce we use Commerce_

Functions

func FlamingoResolver

func FlamingoResolver(_ context.Context) (*string, error)

FlamingoResolver always returns "flamingo" for default schemas.

func Generate

func Generate(services []Service, basePath string, schemaBasePath string) error

Generate runs the graphql generation for the defined services Usually you won't need this, and it's intended for infrastructure implementations.

func MarshalDate

func MarshalDate(t time.Time) graphql.Marshaler

MarshalDate marshals time.Time inf form of YYYY-MM-DD

func MarshalFloat

func MarshalFloat(f big.Float) graphql.Marshaler

MarshalFloat for graphql Float scalars to be compatible with big.Float

func UnmarshalDate

func UnmarshalDate(v interface{}) (time.Time, error)

UnmarshalDate unmarshalls YYYY-MM-DD to time.Time

func UnmarshalFloat

func UnmarshalFloat(v interface{}) (big.Float, error)

UnmarshalFloat for graphql Float scalars to be compatible with big.Float

Types

type FlamingoQueryResolver

type FlamingoQueryResolver struct{}

FlamingoQueryResolver always resolves to the string "flamingo" for the default schemas.

func (*FlamingoQueryResolver) Flamingo

func (*FlamingoQueryResolver) Flamingo(ctx context.Context) (*string, error)

Flamingo field resolver

type Module

type Module struct{}

Module defines the graphql entry point and binds the graphql command and routes

func (*Module) Configure

func (*Module) Configure(injector *dingo.Injector)

Configure sets up dingo

func (*Module) CueConfig

func (m *Module) CueConfig() string

CueConfig for the module

type OpenCensusTracingExtension

type OpenCensusTracingExtension struct{}

func (*OpenCensusTracingExtension) ExtensionName

func (o *OpenCensusTracingExtension) ExtensionName() string

func (*OpenCensusTracingExtension) InterceptField
