GraphQl

FortJs provides a seperate package - fort-graphql for integration of graphql.

Uses

1. npm i fortjs-graphql or yarn add fortjs-graphql
2. Create a controller and inherit GraphQlHelper
   • Create a default worker and call processGraphQl inside it.
   • For graphiql , create another worker and call getGraphiqlUi inside it.

import { HTTP_METHOD, DefaultWorker, Worker } from "fortjs";
import { GraphQlHelper } from "fort-graphql";

export class GraphQlController extends GraphQlHelper {
    
    /**
     * This method will be used to process graphql query 
     *
     * @returns
     * @memberof GraphQlController
     */
    @DefaultWorker(HTTP_METHOD.Get, HTTP_METHOD.Post)
    async  default() {
        return this.processGraphQl();
    }

    /**
     * This method will return graphiql 
     *
     * @returns
     * @memberof GraphQlController
     */
    @Worker()
    async  graphiql() {
        return this.getGraphiqlUi();
    }

}

3. Add the controller into routes
4. Initiate the graphql, where you have bootstrapped your app. By default file is app.ts/app.js -

import { Fort } from 'fortjs';
import { routes } from './routes';
import { FortViewEngine } from 'eshtml';
import * as path from "path";
import { FortGraphQl } from 'fortjs-graphql';
import { GraphQLError, buildSchema } from 'graphql';


Fort.routes = routes;

Fort.create({
    defaultPath: "default" 
}).then(() => {
    console.log("Your fort is located at address - localhost:4000");
    
    // setup graphql
    
    new FortGraphQl().initiate({
        schema: buildSchema(`
        type Query {
          hello: String
        }
        ` ),
        resolver: { hello: () => 'Hello world!' }
    })
}).catch(err => {
    console.error(err);
})
