gqlhttptools v1.0.0

GQLHTTPTools

GQLHTTPTools is a very basic tool to modularize GraphQL type definitions and attach them to express-graphql graphqlHTTP() typeDef property without worrying about separating schemas or nesting them on a messy big string.

Installation

You can use npm or yarn, like you always do:

NPM

npm install gqlhttptools

Yarn

yarn add gqlhttptools

How to use

The very first thing after installation is to import buildSchema() into your schema file:

import { buildSchema } from 'gqlhttptools';

Then you can build your schema:

const usersSchema = buildSchema(`
    type Query {
        users: [User]
        user(id: String!): User
    }

    type User {
        id: ID
        name: String
        username: String
        password: String
    }
`);

After this, you can now import createSchema():

import { createSchema } from 'gqlhttptools';

Then, when you have all your schemas defined you can attach them to graphqlHTTP() properties:

graphqlHTTP({
    typeDef: createSchema(usersSchema),
    // ... 
})

Or you can pass an array:

graphqlHTTP({
    typeDef: createSchema([usersSchema, categoriesSchema, anotherSchema]),
    // ... 
})
