GraphQL Voyager
Represent any GraphQL API as an interactive graph. It's time to finally see the graph behind GraphQL. You can also explore number of public GraphQL APIs from our list.
With graphql-voyager you can visually explore your GraphQL API as an interactive graph. This is a great tool when designing or discussing your data model. It includes multiple example GraphQL schemas and also allows you to connect it to your own GraphQL endpoint. What are you waiting for, explore your API!
Live Demo
Features
- Quick navigation on graph
- Left panel which provides more detailed information about every type
- "Skip Relay" option that simplifies graph by removing Relay wrapper classes
- Ability to choose any type to be a root of the graph
Usage
GraphQL Voyager exports Voyager
React component and helper init
function. If used without
module system it is exported as GraphQLVoyager
global variable.
Properties
Voyager
component accepts the following properties:
introspection
object
or function:(query: string) => Promise
- the server introspection response. Iffunction
is provided GraphQL Voyager will pass introspection query as a first function parameter. Function should returnPromise
which resolves to introspection response object.displayOptions
(optional)displayOptions.skipRelay
boolean
, defaulttrue
- skip relay-related entitiesdisplayOptions.skipDeprecated
boolean
, defaulttrue
- skip deprecated fields and entities that contain only deprecated fields.displayOptions.rootType
string
- name of the type to be used as a rootdisplayOptions.sortByAlphabet
boolean
, defaultfalse
- sort fields on graph by alphabetdisplayOptions.showLeafFields
boolean
, defaulttrue
- show all scalars and enumsdisplayOptions.hideRoot
boolean
, defaultfalse
- hide the root type
hideDocs
boolean
, defaultfalse
- hide the docs sidebarhideSettings
boolean
, defaultfalse
- hide settings panelworkerURI
string
(optional) - absolute or relative path to Voyager web worker. By default it will try to load it fromvoyager.worker.js
.loadWorker
function:(path: string, relative: boolean) => Promise<Worker>
(optional) - If provided GraphQL Voyager will use this function to load the worker. By default it will use the internal callback inutils/index.ts
init
function
The signature of the init
function:
(hostElement: HTMLElement, options: object) => void
hostElement
- parent elementoptions
- is the JS object with properties ofVoyager
component
Using pre-bundled version
You can get GraphQL Voyager bundle from the following places:
- jsDelivr CDN
- some exact version - https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/graphql-voyager/v1.0.0-rc.15/voyager.min.js
- latest version - https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/graphql-voyager/dist/voyager.min.js
- from
dist
folder of the npm packagegraphql-voyager
Important: for the latest two options make sure to copy voyager.worker.js
to the same
folder as voyager.min.js
.

<div id="voyager">Loading...</div>
<script>
function introspectionProvider(introspectionQuery) {
// ... do a call to server using introspectionQuery provided
// or just return pre-fetched introspection
}
// Render <Voyager />
GraphQLVoyager.init(document.getElementById('voyager'), {
introspection: introspectionProvider
})
</script>
</body>
</html>
Using as a dependency
You can install lib using npm
or yarn
:
npm i --save graphql-voyager
yarn add graphql-voyager
And then use it:
import * as React from 'react';
import * as ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import {Voyager} from 'graphql-voyager';
import fetch from 'isomorphic-fetch';
function introspectionProvider(query) {
return fetch(window.location.origin + '/graphql', {
method: 'post',
headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
body: JSON.stringify({query: query}),
}).then(response => response.json());
}
ReactDOM.render(<Voyager introspection={introspectionProvider} />, document.getElementById('voyager'));
Build for the web with webpack (example) or browserify
Important: make sure to copy voyager.worker.js
from node_modules/graphql-voyager/dist
to the same folder as your main bundle or use workerURI
property to specify other path.
NOTE if you use it with create-react-app
, copy worker file to public
folder and use workerURI
property like this:
<Voyager
// ...
workerURI={process.env.PUBLIC_URL + '/voyager.worker.js'}
// ...
/>
Middleware
Graphql Voyager has middleware for the next frameworks:
Properties
Middleware supports the following properties:
endpointUrl
string
- the GraphQL endpoint url.displayOptions
object
- same as hereheadersJS
string
, default"{}"
- object of headers serialized in string to be used on endpoint url Note: You can also use any JS expression which results in an object with header names as keys and strings as values e.g.{ Authorization: localStorage['Meteor.loginToken'] }
Express
import express from 'express';
import { express as voyagerMiddleware } from 'graphql-voyager/middleware';
const app = express();
app.use('/voyager', voyagerMiddleware({ endpointUrl: '/graphql' }));
app.listen(3001);
Hapi
Version 17+
import hapi from 'hapi';
import { hapi as voyagerMiddleware } from 'graphql-voyager/middleware';
const server = new Hapi.Server({
port: 3001
});
const init = async () => {
await server.register({
plugin: voyagerMiddleware,
options: {
path: '/voyager',
endpointUrl: '/graphql'
}
});
await server.start();
};
init();
Legacy Versions
import hapi from 'hapi';
import { hapiLegacy as voyagerMiddleware } from 'graphql-voyager/middleware';
const server = new Hapi.Server();
server.connection({
port: 3001
});
server.register({
register: voyagerMiddleware,
options: {
path: '/voyager',
endpointUrl: '/graphql'
}
},() => server.start());
Koa
import Koa from 'koa';
import KoaRouter from 'koa-router';
import { koa as voyagerMiddleware } from 'graphql-voyager/middleware';
const app = new Koa();
const router = new KoaRouter();
router.all('/voyager', voyagerMiddleware({
endpointUrl: '/graphql'
}));
app.use(router.routes());
app.use(router.allowedMethods());
app.listen(3001);
