Graphback usage

Graphback package provides programatic API for the Graphback ecosystem. In most of the cases you can use graphback by utilizing graphback-cli package that will expose all useful commands and cover most of the use cases.

Graphback package provides two ways to initialize entire ecosystem from the code

• GraphbackRuntime
• GraphbackGenerator

GraphbackGenerator

Graphback generator can be used to initialize Graphback plugins that will transform schema and generate source code. Graphback Generator will utilize GraphQL-Config with underlying plugins

  const config = await loadConfig({
    rootDir: process.cwd(),
    extensions: [graphbackConfigExtension]
  });
  const project = config.getProject('default')
  const graphbackConfig = project.extension('graphback');

  const generator = new GraphbackGenerator(schemaDocument, graphbackConfig)
  generator.generateSourceCode();

Graphback Runtime

Runtime class allows to initialize Graphback CRUD layer without code generation. All resolvers and schema are created in-memory

For full usage and examples please check runtime example application https://github.com/aerogear/graphback/tree/master/templates/ts-apollo-runtime-backend
