pebbles is a GraphQL federation gateway.

How it works

It binds different GraphQL services via Relay Global Object Identification. In order to bind two types which spreads across multiple services, they must implement Node interface, ie

# Service A
interface Node {
	id: ID!
}

type Human implements Node {
	id: ID!
	name: String!
}

type Query {
	node(id: ID!): Node
	getHumans: [Human!]!
}

# Service B
interface Node {
	id: ID!
}

type Human implements Node {
	id: ID!
	phone: String!
}

type Animal {
	name: String!
	owner: Human!
}

type Query {
	node(id: ID!): Node
	getAnimals: [Animal!]!
}

# Pebbles resulting Schema
interface Node {
	id: ID!
}

type Human implements Node {
	id: ID!
	name: String!
	phone: String!
}

type Animal {
	name: String!
	owner: Human!
}

type Query {
	node(id: ID!): Node
	getHumans: [Human!]!
	getAnimals: [Animal!]!
}

Why use pebbles?

Our main goals are simple:

1. Work with every valid schema, even with most complicated ones;
2. Provide extendable schemas -- extend types, interfaces, directives and etc without unnecessary duplication;
3. Customize as you grow -- all our building blocks are interfaces, so you can write your own.

Example

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"net/http"

	"github.com/buildbuildio/pebbles"
)

func main() {
	urls := []string{
		"http://localhost:3000",
	}

	gw, err := pebbles.NewGateway(
		urls,
		pebbles.WithDefaultPlayground(),
	)
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}

	sm := http.NewServeMux()

	sm.HandleFunc("/graphql", gw.Handler)

	server := http.Server{
		Addr:    fmt.Sprintf("0.0.0.0:%d", 8000),
		Handler: sm,
	}

	fmt.Println("Starting server...")
	if err = server.ListenAndServe(); err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
}

Special thanks

Thanks to nautilus/gateway and movio/bramble for inspiration to write this project. Check them, they're both great in their own way ;)
